About
This is the free demo of Retro Machina that includes two locations of the game for you to explore.
Only one city remains on the planet, and it’s only robots who inhabit it now. Protected by a glass dome, Endeavor rises above the once lively area and worker robots are trying their best to keep it going. In order to maintain it, every robot has to do its job perfectly and any imperfections found are being discarded.
Thrown to a junkyard for a malfunction, a single robot worker is on a quest to get itself fixed. But the city sees this loyal worker as a threat now, so all the robots and defenses that protect Endeavor have turned against their former colleague. With the unique ability to control various machines of the city, including any robots that are in the way, this little Robot is on a mission to fix himself and find intelligent life.
Yet it seems that there is no intelligent life left. Only the robots programmed to keep the city nice and clean for people who are nowhere to be found.

Long ago humans vanished leaving behind only their robotic creations. Now the world they left behind is falling apart. Is there anyone out there to help you fix it and discover what happened to the people who used to live here?
Alone in the world, the little robot has a special trick up his sleeve: the ability to hack and gain control of any other machines. Use them as you like: you can make them fight each other, explore unreachable places, solve puzzles, or just accompany you in your journey. There are dozens of robots with different abilities for you to explore.
The art style of Retro Machina is based on illustrations from the science fiction books of the twentieth century. Set in the retro-futuristic universe, the game is inspired by the work of such legendary people as Jacque Fresco, one of the most famous futurists in the world.
From underground facilities to the golden streets of Endeavour, the last city on the planet, your journey will take you across a whole region filled with new challenges, new robots, and mysteries to explore.

10 из 10! Радует, что становится больше игр на тему роботизации. Всё нравится, и сюжет, и задумка. Но есть НО! Это головоломки. Есть также трудные мини-боссы. Головоломки реально заставляют потупить. И причем надолго. Рекомендую! https://rutube.ru/video/3af6efc6235955bcdac61c815d192c0a/
Bu oyun, bir mücevher ve oyunun tamamının gerçekten devasa ve güzel olacağı umudunu taşıyor. Yepyeni veya ezici bir şey sunmuyor, ancak mükemmel şekilde kullanılan sanat tarzı, müzik, oynanış ve biraz meydan okumanın birleşimi gerçekten keyifli bir deneyim yaratıyor.

eh...yea ... To Dev: Do retro pixels and music not retro controls and gameplay...
The game definitely has good music, decent graphics, and a nice atmosphere. But the developer made a number of mistakes, which make the game feel unfinished. The default controls aren’t very comfortable. As soon as I realized how my hands were supposed to be positioned on the keyboard (too close together), I wanted to change them. In the end, it turned out that using the mouse works best, but the mouse buttons aren’t available as an option. Games with this camera angle always have very difficult, clunky battles, where even basic enemies make you feel stressed and frustrated. It would be better to do away with these kinds of battles—or eliminate battles altogether. It’s also unclear how far your attacks reach, or at what point an enemy deals damage and from what distance.

Дэмка понравилась. Немного боев, немного простеньких головоломок, много ламповой атмосферы ретро-фантастики) Попозже прикуплю полную версию.

I liked this demo a lot, especially the atmosphere it created via the level design and art direction. Idk how to describe it but the way everything was drawn, put in place, it genuinely provided the atmosphere of an abandoned factory. My only small complain is that I felt puzzles n combat could've been shown off better(especially puzzles since I assume they'll play bigger role then combat in full game) so I was more confident in its quality in the full game. Althought I did find it funny how the demo ends right after you finally get upgrade station even though I think it should've appeared earlier xD
퍼즐 노잼이라서 재미가 없다.
