Heya there. I would love to get your opinion and some feedback on the demo of my most recent project,
Incitement 3. It's only 1 hour long so far, but it should give a good idea of what the game is like. Thanks in advance and hope you enjoy it.
Review time-
Personal thoughts on Incitement 3
Fun,interactive little demo which shows hands down the full game will be one to enjoy. The little things such as title screen and menus ,show that the maker cared enough to make them different so the player can enjoy them more then a generic set up all to common in rpg maker titles. The sound is also wonderful and set the scene pretty well. The sci-fi/steampunk theme looks wonderful as well.
Review-
I am going to start with a small quote from the creator. "
The story is being designed so that it’s easily understandable by those who have not played the first 2 games" While this is only a demo,most gamers when offered a demo will try that out before buying the game. As i have not personally played the first 2 game in this series i find this statement misleading when it comes to the demo. Mainly straight from the beginning you are tossed into chaos ,first viewing the bad guys? side then the good guys?. What could help here is a little intro video setting the scene with a little back story. Tell of the things that lead to what is starting out in this version ,so the player has some idea as to where they are when they start.
What we have so far didn't seem to establish any real sense of hating the bad guys or loving the good guys.
The small details are well thought out and show the level of the creator and the experience they have gained since making the first 2 games in this series. The hacking mini game is a nice little touch as well.
The graphics are perfect for this type of game and are rather well-done. The way the game was mapped made me thing i was in a steampunk futuristic place,thus making robots and machines perfect enemies.
Now the skill system is an interesting thing using both AP(ammo points) as well as various types of bullets for certain moves. Sadly, this is one spot i see lacking based most likely off assumptions the player will have played pervious versions. That being an explanation on how it works. What i mean here is the special bullets , they need to have say a small tutorial to go with them in the first or second battle. All it would need to say is something like "this move uses special ammo which can be found via battling,chests,or bought at a shop. With out this ammo you will not be able to use this move" then it would be a tad more specific to each and would name the ammo such as cryo bullets or supporitve ammo.
Not sure what more there is to say- the game offers many chances to get items from shops as well as worldly healing stations,which everyone loves. Perhaps the game could use some form of illustration for the ship the players travel from place to place on a sort of a screen transfer.
Rating 7.5/10
Wonderful and beautiful game well worth playing
Lacks the needed story recap to set the stage for the game for players who have not played prior versions in the series,thus leaving the player potentially confused as to why the things that are happening are even there.
could use a little tutorial on the special skill section of combat as well as on the add-ons for gear.
