Nettle

"Nettle" is a laughably bad attempt to make a single player RTS, and the result was a disaster... shallow gameplay, a pointless narrative about populating some other planet, and some of the worst graphics ever to insult gamers. Weirdly, people actually played this, and there's no explanation for that, because this really is junk. The developers gave up on this 10 months ago. It's destined to remain unfinished. This junkware is just polluting Steam and making it difficult for gamers to fully finished, completed games. That's not good for gamers. The technical execution of this game is shallow and simplistic, just enough to tick the boxes required to get something (anything) published on Steam, rather than investing the huge amount of effort and budget needed to create a fully fledged, comprehensive, high quality product. This feels like a tech demo more than a full game. In terms of visuals, this features really godawful MS-Paint tier "art" instead of real graphics. It's hard to say if this was because the developer didn't have the skill to do the job of creating 3D visuals, or couldn't afford to hire someone who does, but it also doesn't matter. What matters is that this looks much worse than most other games because of that decision, and that's a major deterrent to gamers. The deplorably bad visuals here come across as an insult to gamers. On the important matter of pricing and value for gamers, there's a lot going on here with monetisation, so this really shouldn't be considered a truly free product because of that. It's free for now, but the developer intends to charge for this if it ever leaves Early Access... but considering the poor public reception, it's likely this will not be one of the 25% of games that ever gets finished and leaves Early Access. Furthermore, the developer has their hand out for a $5 USD "donation" for this as you're expected to give them money for soundtrack DLC (that's already in the game) from Steam to "support" the "developer"... digital panhandling. Like the homeless guys who splash dirty water on your windscreen at the traffic lights. No thanks. The developer locked content behind DLC and is selling paid DLC for a game that's still in Early Access. "Nettle" isn't finished, comes across as pretty much abandoned, yet there's already paywalled content on sale (no matter what the content is). They can't find the time to complete the game, but they have all the time in the world to make "new" content for the game and put a price tag on it. That greed and unethical abuse of Steam Early Access makes this come across as a cash grab, a scam. Bearing in mind that free games don't add +1 to your game collector count, should you bother adding this to your library and downloading it? What's the verdict? Definitely not. This isn't worth it. I'm paraphrasing another reviewer here, but this should be a paid product... they'd have to pay people to download it.

Interesting ideas but the game just feels worse than most games I played. This would need tons and tons of polish before it becomes a game I would be interested in.

Игра "Nettle" – это приятный сюрприз в жанре головоломок. Визуальный стиль, выполненный в приглушенных тонах с акцентом на минимализм, создает расслабляющую атмосферу, что идеально подходит для вдумчивого решения задач. Сами головоломки, хоть и кажутся простыми на первый взгляд, постепенно усложняются, требуя от игрока логического мышления и внимательности к деталям. Механика игры интуитивно понятна, а обучение ненавязчиво знакомит с основными принципами. Отсутствие спешки позволяет не торопиться и наслаждаться процессом поиска решения. Уровень сложности сбалансирован, и даже в сложных ситуациях не возникает ощущения безысходности, всегда есть ощущение, что решение находится где-то рядом. Отдельно стоит отметить медитативный саундтрек, который прекрасно дополняет геймплей и помогает сосредоточиться. "Nettle" – это отличный выбор для тех, кто ищет спокойную и интеллектуальную игру, способную ненадолго отвлечь от суеты и подарить приятные эмоции. Рекомендую всем любителям жанра!
