stratO

This game is very fun and is worth every penny!

QWOP on a plane. The game looks great, very sleek style, runs and plays smoothly, but what the hell is going on, why are the controls so unintuitive, and what the hell I'm even supposed to do.

Unique controls? Yes. Fun? No, not for me. More arcane than necessary and nauseating most of all, even after adjusting the field of view settings. After looking up some basic tutorial stuff I still felt like the game was lacking any driving factor to convince me to continue. Too bad, it looked really neat, but was overall kinda dull once I started playing.

不知道手柄会不会好一点，键盘操作性要求偏强，操作要求略硬啊，但是飞起来确实很爽就是了

By far one of the most realaxing, simplistic. and challenging games that still gets your heart racing.

I just don't get it. I looks like fun, but its one crazy messed up game to play. Has to be one of the most confusing flight simulators I've played. Its not immediately obvious what you're supposed to do and even when you start to get the hang of the flight mechanics, avoiding the obstacles and flying through hoops just gets repetitive and boring. Not to mention the field of view problems, the fog and draw distance makes it feel just a little like "Superman 64" did when I played it back in the day.

This game has a steep learning curve and was boring for the first 15 minutes, but it was worth it. Game Demo: https://a824bc6ac21fba1ecef47d17fe469609b4064e27.googledrive.com/host/0BxIWTr9WUhiBZ2xxd3JULUIyWHM/stratOGame.html

The premise of the game is very nice and it looks beautiful but the controls are extremely compicated and the game throws you into flight with no tutorial, no idea what to do and just leaves you alone with the over-responsive and confusing control pattern. A tutorial and/or beginners mode would go a long way to making this fun. I'm not willing to read through tutorials and try and error for hours until I "get it".

More Reveiws @ TheVideogameBacklog.com stratO is a game that I feel needs some advice given before even starting this review. There are a few strategies online for stratO (even by the developer) mentioning a few different tactics, but I have to admit that one tactic rises above the rest. That strategy is to pick one set of controls (like the left and right air brakes) and while not trying to fly through rings, just get used to what those specific controls do to the plane. Just focus on those buttons while trying to avoid the giant blocks. That’s it; rinse and repeat for additional controls. This should help the learning curve. It’s weird and feels pointless, but it does work. That said, I was frustrated with the controls since I couldn’t configure them the way I wanted to, that and there seemed to be a lot of buttons. Changing the controls wasn’t exactly straightforward, but I eventually did figure it out. Instead of getting used to what the developer had set up, I was trying to set up controls that the game refused to let me use. I was trying to assign two different controls to the joysticks and while it would work on the control setup screen, it wouldn’t work in-game. Eventually I gave up and just used what I was given and I then got used to it and the 100 rings in a row achievement. I feel I could have done this a little easier with my idea, but you can only do so much. There is no tutorial and point to the game just yet. Well “point” may be the wrong word. I think maybe “reason” would be the better word. Why am I flying here? Why are there random blocks jumping up in front of me? What’s with the rings? Why would I want to continuously fly through them? Is it just for the achievements? The short answer is that stratO is a game that the developer seemed to want to create around his control scheme. Figure out the controls to the best of your abilities and enjoy trying to get all the achievements. It can actually be quite relaxing once you figure out enough of the controls to not hit things. The developer is also adding a new mode to the game named Salvo. It’s almost the same game currently but with a gun attached to your plane that automatically fires. I’m assuming that you’re just supposed shoot the blocks. This feels like an easier mode than the regular mode and can almost act as a bit of a tutorial. I’d almost recommend playing Salvo mode first. I’m sure that there will be more to this, but as it stands, it’s good enough since he’s still creating it. Score: Gewd. While there’s not much going on in stratO and you can see the developer is working on this and adding more to the game and that’s no small feat. stratO is a smooth experience and if you can get a combo going with some good flying the music rewards you and makes the experience all that much better. While I am not completely enjoy the controls, it’s not something that can’t be overcome like some other games I’ve played. It took me a bit to get completely into this game, but in the end I can say that I enjoyed my experience. I can’t say its got a lot to make you want to come back unless you’re an achievement hunter. Maybe when the Salvo mode gets fleshed out we might have something a bit more to solidify the foundation and possibly help me get the one achievement I tried hard to get: “I DO WHAT I WANT”.

Senza nessun tutorial o spiegazione su come funzionino le due modalità di gioco o sui comandi, ci troveremo ad affrontare la complicata fisica dei flussi d’aria agendo su quattro deflettori e sull’apertura di ognuna delle due ali per gestire la direzione del nostro aereo, districarci in arene praticamente prive di ogni punto di riferimento al di là di una sorta di bussola marinara che segna la direzione e il verso della gravità. Se non avete paura di affrontare un gioco senza che qualcuno ve ne abbia letto le istruzioni, stratO è indubbiamente il gioco che fa per voi.
