Excellent game, especially for the current price (7 USD), though once they add more levels, it'd easily be worth double that. Though at the time of writing this review, the game does suffer from some minor problems due to it being early access. The game itself is fun, engaging, and challanging. It's a unique experience at full of replayability.

The objectives are simple enough. Currently you will either be asked to destroy something, move something, or go to something. The levels are also simple and clean, much like the (very attractive, though still simple) graphics. In fact, the entire game is only about 100 megs, which for a full 3d game with this much dynamic content, says a lot about how much the developer(s) care about keeping it efficient. The interface is a little bit more complicated, but only because of the inherint complexity of building things.

And this is where the game really shines, with building things. There are only about 40 parts, at a guess, but with them you can build pretty much anything you set your mind to, so long as you aren't too ridiculous. Catapults and go-carts are only the tip of the iceburg. Build a machine gun! A helicopter! A transformer! The only limit is your imagination and you mechanical prowess. After beating all the currently available levels (about 15, at another guess), I had the urge to go play them again, but differently, and possibly with self-imposed challanges like 'no wheels'.

I doubt that the game will give you hundreds of hours of playtime, but it will deliver nigh-unrivaled entertainment (and potentially, challange!) in a much more compact package than most games these days.

The only real problem I can see someone having is if they are extremely impatient and easily frustrated. A friend of mine who is a little impatient enjoys the game, but if you're the type who mashes buttons and yells at your computer, well, we don't need you, but you're probably on a console anyway.

Very fun, I don't play it a lot anymore.

Too many different types of items tbh.

This game has serious interface flaws which need to be addressed before I would call it enjoyable, as well as many other issues:
-Huge pixelated text that covers the screen and is near impossible to read.
-Imposed rendering cap of 720p for no apperent reason, with incredibly awkward and unweildy settings.
-Primary button used for multiple things at once means that you can skip important information or navigate away from what youwant to while trying to do other things - like shoot.
-Overused effects domination the already low-res display and make it hard to tell what is going on.
-Sluggish controls. (Not really too bad, and would not be a problem if the above were not true.)
-Good music! But you can listen to it for only a very short amount of time.
-Unintiutive design.
*The tutorial is ambiguous.
*You often cannot tell whether you are supposed into fly into a thing of avoid it until you try.
*You have an arbitrary limit of how many 'special drill attacks' you can use, which is at no point brought to your attention,
*and this limit is represented by a completely unrelated text character near the top of the screen.
*Mashing the primary button brings you back to the title screen, not back to the game, after death.
*Respawn text is often ambiguous and changes ever time you see it.
*Generally unclear, hard to read, and confusing interface. Even if it is shiney, shiney does not a good interface make.

Another big issue is illusion of speed, which plagues a lot of games. The background makes it look like you a re traveling incredibly fast, while the things you can encounter move by you much more slowely relative to it. Effects and other shiney things also do not accurately depict speed, so is leads to a confusing gameplay environment where you'd be better off assuming you were not moving, and that things where moving past you at different rates.


Good things about the game? Like I said good music, and fancy effects, but these are used so poorly I cannot claim that they count positively. Under other circumstances they might be selling points, but under these they are merely things which are not terrible.

The actual tests are pretty good, but let's be honest, that is a silver lining to a very ugly cloud. Voice acting is horrid, story (wait, that actually had one?) is weak and uninteresting, and the environments go from 'meh' to 'meh' to 'I want to complete this test just so I can stop looking at this crap'. The music is good about a fifth of the time, and some poorly made audio choices make even that unenjoyable if that's what you are there for.

Over all, it could have done with some professional audio/visual/level design, and a new voice actor. The tests, at least most of them, are alright, but not worth it when you weigh them against everything else. There are better level on the steam workshop, and guess what? They are free.

Design rockets. Fly rockets. Crash rockets.

Atmosphere. Story. Puzzles. All in a brutal, beautiful world. But buy this game and let is speak for itself - trust me, you'll enjoy hearing what it has to say.

Get DS:R instead!

There is nothing new or revolutionary about this game.
The story is tacked-on and weak.
The time travel is even weaker.
And the combat is lame.
I hope you get more out of it than I did.
