About
Ever had something turn out so disastrously that you wished you could just reset and start all over again? In this game you may just have the chance to reboot the grandest experiment ever gone wrong. That experiment? The Universe itself.
You will find yourself inside an amazing single mechanism, impressive in its scale. Taking control of its lonely resident - Artificial Intelligence named HAWKING, you will be able to visit many locations filled with a variety of technical devices.
Solve spatial puzzles, change the fundamental laws of physics to activate all systems of this incredible mechanism and launch a process called TOTAL RELOAD!
The game world of TOTAL RELOAD consists of many locations connected by special devices for fast movement called Quantum Transporters.
Each location has different energy sources that you have to combine into a single network with Quantum Transporters. Some energy sources are located in hard-to-reach places, and to get there, you'll have to use wires to temporarily supply power to various objects: moving platforms, sensor grids, energy filters and closed doors.
In TOTAL RELOAD you have to learn to “think with wires” or, in other words, understand that by temporarily supplying power to various objects you can get to previously inaccessible locations.
The plot of the game will be presented in an unusual way. At the start, you will take control of the body of the main character - an Artificial Intelligence named HAWKING, while the AI's mind will function independently and realize that the body is now controlled by someone else. Therefore, HAWKING's mind will periodically communicate with you through text comments that will appear on the screen at certain moments. And in some locations you will find special symbols that can be scanned in different sequences and using this system make up questions for the AI.
This is a story about loneliness and difficult challenges posed to oneself, a story about the search for absolute universal knowledge. In a sense, this is a metaphorical narrative hidden under science fiction about the game developers themselves, alone trying to complete a difficult task and overcoming various intellectual obstacles. The game will also contain references to the works of real-life personalities, for example, to the songs of the rock band Muse and the book by Robert Heinlein.
Game duration: about 10 hours.

《Total Reload》是一款乍看上去有点像《传送门》的科幻题材解谜游戏,只不过本作游戏仅允许玩家单人游玩。游戏中玩家将身处于一个充满科幻风格的房间中,利用管道进行移动,与传送门的性质相似,通过房间内的各种机关以及管道的连接来完成解谜活动。 游戏的画面看上去相当不错,一些细节制作得也比较精致,但是游玩的体验会有各种卡顿问题,游戏的优化并不是很好,而游戏的谜题设置缺乏明显的提示,部分按键提示弹出的时机莫名其妙,实际上在很多场景都适用于按键。 最后,就是游戏的配音,游戏居然很诡异的使用了中文粤语配音,但是明显感觉是AI,断句很诡异,总感觉出自俄罗斯的游戏就是这样,喜欢加中配,但是各种搞笑诡异。 [table][td][b]欢迎关注我们 [/b][url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/10591434/]突突突发糖辣![/url] [/td][/table]

"Total Reload" is a game very clearly inspired by other first-person puzzle games, like the Portal, Talos Principle, and Q.U.B.E. franchises. The main robot model from Total Reload looks a lot like the androids from the Talos Principle, and there are laser redirection cubes in Total Reload that look to be directly ripped from Portal 2. However, what this game may lack in originality, it more than makes up for in execution. The most unique mechanic the game has is the wiring mechanic that forces you to think carefully about which power source you connect to which receiver–and in which order to do it. I think the game does a good job of gradually introducing mechanics and has a decent length as well (it took me ~9 hours from start to finish). The structure of the game is very linear, but the overall hub area/megastructure gets broken up by branching-off levels that need to be solved to progress further in the main area–I really liked the satisfying feeling of progression as you work your way through. There is no way to reset or cherry-pick which puzzles to go back to and replay–you start the game and progress until the end. If you want to replay a level from the middle, you will need to restart the whole thing from the beginning. The game definitely feels like an indie game, but considering it was made by only two people, the love, passion, and polish poured into the game shows. It has a distinct visual style and I don’t think I ever encountered any major bugs of any kind. It was a very smooth and pleasant experience. The puzzles themselves started off easy, but gradually ramped up in difficulty. Still, I think any casual fan of this genre would still be able to get through without too much frustration. I struggled a bit with a few puzzles near the end, but never needed to quit and come back or seek a walkthrough. I may play a lot of these types of games, but I am pretty bad at the hardcore puzzles, so if I had no trouble, then the difficulty would likely never exceed the easy-medium range. Plenty of “a-ha!” moments and just cool ideas that were fun to play. I hardly have any issues with this game. The biggest weakness it has is the story. The robot talks to you in a text-to-speech voice (which mispronounces a few English words–which is kind of funny). If you are going to play the game, come for the gameplay/visuals. I’ve seen some complaints about the speed of the elevators/platforms. While they are slow, they need to be because there are many occasions where you have to activate a platform/lift, then get onto it before it moves too far. So I had no issues with the speed. While I thought the game was well worth the price and had plenty of levels, I did find myself wishing more of the mechanics got mixed together. For example, the laser and laser redirection cubes have a whole series of levels devoted to them, but once that is over and the gravity-changing jump-pads are introduced, you never see the lasers again. It would have been cool to see late-game levels use all of the mechanics. The music is not something I’d listen to myself outside of the game, but it was nice it was there and I was impressed with how many tracks there were. I do not think I ever heard the same song twice. It seemed to constantly change and evolve throughout my entire 9 hours with the game. Quite impressive, really! The best comparison I can make with Total Reload is another indie portal-clone called “The GoD Unit”--they are both made by very small teams that lack the production value of the likes of the bigger titles that inspired them, but nonetheless accomplish a great puzzle game experience on their own merit.
Для жанра головоломок самое то ! От РУ* разработчика, выглядит достойно !

Графика отстой, озвучка отстой, оптимизация говна-пирога. Геймплей вообще что-то с чем-то.
Total Reload — интересная головоломка. Если хочется вечерком напрячь мозги и почувствовать себя электриком или космонавтом, самое то. Загадки тут не сложные, скорее на внимательность и кабель-менеджмент. Чем дальше в лес, тем больше дров. К концу тебя просто все механики и предметы задушат. Из минусов: — нет руководства по механикам. Лично я забывала половину механик и на элементарных вещах тупо застревала на несколько минут или часов. Например: провод, отключённый от платформы, остаётся у тебя, а не возвращается к переключателю (два часа потратила на это, я плакать хотела); скинь кубик — и он вернётся в конкретную точку; на особые платформы ставишь кубик и можешь по ней пройти. На больших локациях я об этом забывала. — нет подсказок, хотя в начале говорилось: «прыгни — я помогу». По факту не поможет прыжок — основная функция, где она тебе местами помогает. — Хокинг мало говорит. Он часто говорит в начале и создаёт атмосферу, что вас двое, но в середине и в конце уже маловато. Даже тоскливо становится. Если он сказал подсказку — повторить его попросить не получится, или посмотреть, что он сказал. Например: когда он говорит, что нужно прыгнуть с кубиком. Акцентирует на то, что надо умудриться этот кубик кинуть на другую платформу. Если ты отвлёкся и не услышал — ну что ж. Стой и думай, как и что. — местами душные головоломки. В прологе как-то не сильно душило, но как дальше идут сектора и более глобальные — тебя уже душит. А в последнем секторе с гравитацией. Я вообще думала умру. Головоломки, ориентированные на положение в пространстве, меня укачивают. Из плюсов: - музыка классная. Музыка — моё почтение. Мне понравились мелодии. Сильно не мешают и при этом получаешь своеобразный релакс при решении. - идея игры. Портал — там порталы. Принцип Талоса — там лучи. Здесь ты — кабель-менеджмент и электрик в космосе. Продуманный сюжет, но, помнится, чутка ограниченный. Загадок — море, а сюжет — так себе. - игра довольно красивая и плавная. У меня игра один раз зависла, пришлось перезагружать. Спасибо хоть прогресс сохранился. За всю игру фризов было 1–2 раза. Это уже очень хорошо. - сложность головоломок. Легкие, потом сложные. Думать тут не надо. Как начнёшь думать — и всё. Тут больше на действия. Берёшь, подключаешь — работает хорошо, нет — ищи другой вариант. Головоломка линейная, не заблудишься. Максимум — с обилия механик сумма сойдётся. Игра интересная, поиграть стоит. После прохождения приятное послевкусие и удовлетворение от выполненной работы по подключениям. Надеюсь, разработчик будет всё так же держать планку. Игра-головоломка, вышедшая в 2025 году, не использует Unreal Engine 5 (чтоб его не ладно) и имеет русскую локализацию — это на вес золота. Может, что-то добавлю в будущем. Всем приятной игры.
Весьма достойная игра с приятной графикой. Помогает развивать логическое мышление и тренирует память. Поначалу может показаться несколько сложной-но в этом и есть свой плюс и смысл- это хороший способ проверить свои способности, отвлечься от повседневности и с интересом провести время. Игра затягивает по мере прохождения. Разработчикам удачи и процветания!
Great game. 👏👏👏 Did definitely scratch my Portal ich.
I quite enjoyed the 15 hours I put into this game. It's got everything a good FP puzzle game should have: plenty of rooms, switches, a gadgety gun, gravity changes, lasers, even a talkative AI (and cubes!). I found the interactive elements with the AI to be engaging as well. The story behind why you're doing what you do is interesting. Also liked the music selections, aren't a lot of them but they're all bops that don't get bothersome when you hear them often. Which is likely as some of these puzzles were head scratchers for sure lol My 2 nitpicks with the game would be that the "AI" actor seemingly purposely mispronouncing words was a bit irritating. Maybe I missed it if there was a reason given for why. Definitely a me thing, I'm a stickler for grammar and such. I also kinda wish the hitboxes on the switches was a bit larger, as I found myself slowed down a bit having a cube knocked out of my hands trying to activate a switch. So I'd have to hit the switch again, pick up the cube, try to click the switch without dropping the cube. It could also have been part of the occasional issue I had with the controls/controller (KK3 Max from Gulikit) which may be related to my playing it on Linux (Garuda, Arch based). But those things were minor distractions in what is a very good Portal inspired effort. If you're into this genre of game, I would definitely recommend checking this one out. Solid 3-3.5/5 for me.
非常によくできた3Dパズルゲームでした。 クリアまでのプレイ時間は8時間ちょっとです。 本作はとにかく視線誘導が素晴らしい。 パズルに関わるギミックがすべてケーブルで繋がっているため、仕掛けを見落としたり、次にどこへ行けばいいのか迷う心配がありません。 そのおかげで、純粋にパズルを解くことに集中できます。 パズル自体も論理思考が中心で、答えから逆算すると無理なく解ける構造になっています。 いくつか閃きが必要な場面もありますが、そういう時にはホーキングがさりげなくヒントをくれるので理不尽さは感じませんでした。 ホーキングのセリフは少し早口で聞き取りづらい時があったので、設定で字幕をオンにしておくと快適に遊べると思います。 PortalやTalosはもちろん、論理パズルや環境系パズルが好きな人には強くおすすめできる作品です。
