Voltage High Society

What a wonderful weirdass game, I want more.

Really liked it. Enemy design is really cool, the combat can be a bit janky feeling but the it more then makes up for it once you have some upgrades. The taser being useful in combat and utility is really cool but the ball takes the cake.

an amazingly refreshing weird game, well worth the all nighter pulled to finish it

Janky little game. Has some really nice bits, I especially liked the BBC-documentary-like description of the in-world "fauna". With 7 hours of content it is well paced IMO. It's rather linear, not many secrets to find (at least I don't find many). For that reason I would also not label it as metroidvania. Yes, you get new abilities and you can unlock shortcuts ... but there is, to my knowledge, no reason to backtrack, you won't find anything new. I also did not find enough currency to buy all upgrade, like, I only unlocked 2/3. Some other reviewer claimed you would find so much money you don't even know what to do with it. Strange. The game is quite janky though and bit buggy. But I didn't encounter anything game breaking.

Начнем с того, что игра неоднозначная. И отзыв, скорее, нейтральный. О плюсах: -Сеттинг. -Визуал. -Музыка. -Левел дизайн. -Разнообразие локаций. -Интересно и полезно исследовать окружение (Находите валюту для прокачки и иногда можно найти кольца, немного повышающие характеристики). -Первая половина игры чистый восторг, просторные локации открытые для исследования и имеющие шорткаты. -Первая половина игры вызывает ассоциации с Chronicles of Riddick и Condemned. О минусах: -Кривоватая боевка. -Вторая половина игры довольно линейная. -В определенный момент будет локация, на которой вас будет преследовать неубиваемый монстр и ваншотить. -Боссфайты вызывают раздражение, хотя, на первый взгляд, задуманы интересно. -Первый босс - паук (робот-паук). -Отсутствует русская локализация (А текст тут интересный и его не мало, есть диалоги, записки и разговоры по рации).

Just to be up front I played version 1.7 and I was told the experience differs quite a bit between versions. The game bills itself as a dark souls/metroidvania-like. It is neither. It is a first person platformer with some light puzzles and some mostly inconsequential combat. Platforming is the main way of progressing in the game. It can be rough around the edges at point with sticky edges or tight reaches. Some areas force you to move forward once you enter them. Combat consists of swinging around your two fists at the ocassional enemy. You eventually get a taser and ball as additional weapons. Most enemies go down quick and in a few hits. There is no real consequence for dying: you just go back to the last save point to try again. The game world itself oozes atmosphere and there are lots of little story and world building bits to find. The environments are nice to look at when you aren't getting chased. You eventually get to walk on them as well. At it's worst, the game doesn't explain itself very well. The game will often introduce something and leave you to figure it out by trial an error. Notably, there is a cave at the start of the game with a hurt floor that becomes accessible if you wait for the glow to stop, but the game doesn't drop any hints. Most boss fights will require you to just try things to see if they stick. The late game platforming requires you to just try things in certain cases. Overall, I still liked it despite how rough around edges it is.

-О да это же мой любимый жанр ходилка-бродилка :D -Игра довольно безумная по визуальному стилю (просто взгляните на скриншоты) -Игра довольно простая по боёвке (у вас есть левая и правая, вы можете ими бить + изучить приёмы в процессе прохождения, и кайтить врагов на анимацию атаки и затем бить в открывшееся окно, кому-то такое покажется хаотичным, но импакт от попадания прикольный и я вообще с подобным подходом не имею проблем) -Игра имеет офигительный лвл-дизайн, будто снова в первый раз в дарк соулс зашёл, также куча мест где что поисследовать, шорткаты хитрые, локации разные. --Если вам нравится игры с хорошим лвлдизайном и довольно прип*зднутым визуальным стилем - берите, оно забавное. годное инди.
