Space Revenge - Prologue

Gamers as old as I am might remember the Amiga classic "Alien Breed" where up to two players at once infiltrated a base full of aliens, shooting their way through to collect key cards and upgrades to be able to progress further. Of course, "Alien Breed" wasn't a twin-stick shooter - twin sticks weren't a thing back then - but there's a lot "Space Revenge" does similarly. While "Space Revenge" doesn't quite get the atmosphere of the classic right - especially not in the musical department - many other boxes are ticked. The combat? Difficult. It's one man against many, and health packs are in short supply. Despite the corridors of the base looking rather spacious they quickly become rather small once several enemies spawn more or less on top of you. Add a heavy enemy into the mix and the whole ordeal becomes deadly very quickly. This isn't a game to rush through, you'll have to move slowly and aim carefully to succeed. Dying is not fun in this game. There are no checkpoints and no lives; you'll lose all progress and have to start the level over. This makes for a rather hardcore experience but also one that's enjoyable as being able to complete a level feels rewarding. Unfortunately - at least for me - the difficulty ramps up [i]very[/i] quickly so I wasn't able to get very far. Some parts feel a bit unfair - spawning three enemies in front of you and three behind you in a small room is just a bit too much. Sure, they die rather quickly but so do you. Supposedly there are boss fights but I wasn't able to even reach the first one. You'll get missions to complete in every level and this means you'll have to explore. One thing I didn't like about that is that you're tasked to clear the level of all enemies. This means that even if you completed all other objectives with just a sliver of health left you still have to finish the last few enemies [i]that aren't even in your way[/i]. Despite being controller-only there's no local multiplayer which would be quite the logical thing to offer given that there are two different playable characters. Talking about the controls I found it occasionally difficult to aim at enemies further away even though an aim line is displayed. The hit boxes are apparently rather small and you really have to have steady hands. While the visuals are decent they aren't anything special and there was a constant jitter suggesting the frame rate wasn't always optimal. The audio is okay and doesn't annoy which is a nice thing to say. But all in all "Space Revenge" isn't a bad game. The difficulty curve is too steep [i]for me[/i] but if you like easy to play but hard to master shooter games this might be right up your alley. It's free so why not give it a shot?

Kinda MEH. It does remind me of classic arcade and old games like this (another review mentions Alien Breed, I was thinking Gauntlet, Commando, Escape from the Planet of the Robot Monsters) but it's only OK. Built for controller, although keyboard and mouse did work. Didn't see a way to re-map keys ingame and I was too darn lazy to go looking for config files to modify. Graphics are OK, obviously a Unity game. Sound is OK, nothing special. worked in win7 so there is that, if you're out of date. If you like this kind of thing, go for it. But for the cost I might skip it unless very inexpensive.

Игра "Space Revenge - Prologue" - это динамичный и стильный шутер с видом сверху, который сразу же захватывает внимание своим ретро-футуристическим визуалом и драйвовым саундтреком. Несмотря на то, что это всего лишь пролог, он предлагает полноценную порцию экшена и демонстрирует потенциал будущей полной версии игры. Главная героиня, отважная космическая наемница, мстительно расстреливает орды инопланетных захватчиков, используя разнообразное оружие и специальные умения. Управление простое и интуитивно понятное, что позволяет быстро освоиться и начать разносить противников в пух и прах. Уровень сложности сбалансирован, и даже на нормальном уровне придется попотеть, чтобы выжить под натиском врагов. Боссы представляют собой серьезный вызов, требующий тактического подхода и использования всех доступных ресурсов. Несмотря на короткую продолжительность, пролог оставляет приятное послевкусие и вызывает желание увидеть продолжение истории. "Space Revenge - Prologue" - это отличный способ скоротать время и получить заряд адреналина, а также возможность оценить работу разработчиков и поддержать их в дальнейшем развитии проекта. Однозначно рекомендую фанатам жанра и тем, кто ищет динамичный и увлекательный шутер.

I had some fun the first two stages but on the third stage I never actually completed it as it felt i was dragging through the exact same loop of the last two stages. The enemy variation was pretty cool and i liked the diverse ammo types not all i tried but to me the guns felt all the same to be fair i only used the main 3 round burst and the plasma gun. Overall i good little game to spend some time on but cant definitely say i wont be purchasing the full game.

[h1]Before I played Space Revenge - Prologue, I had a small pp, no friends, no gf, depression, and no life. These things havent changed, but the game is pretty good[/h1]

Весёлая пострелушка в жанре Alien шутер. Только управление под джойстик заточено. Да и после перезагрузки игры автосохранение пропало, настройки управления слетели
