Found this gem after playing Brigador Killers demo and hearing that it has a prequel. Probably the most fun I've ever gotten out of $1.30. Costs the full price too, imho. Will be patiently waiting for the release of the sequel after I'll finish this one. Best of luck with that to the dev team.

Genuinely criminal how underrated this game is, especially considering how starved we are for great mech games. Don't go in expecting a fast and fluid top down shooter, it's really meant to be played more methodically and tactically. If you go in with those expectations and are willing to adjust to the controls you'll get a mech experience unlike any other. Brigador Killers can't come out fast enough.

THE GREAT LEADER IS DEAD Thus it starts Controls that seem clunky become second nature Difficult becomes intuitive SOLO NOBRE A quick operation becomes a Full Campaign Run "Just the campaign" becomes "every single loadout" "How can i do this?" becomes "oh these are actually so easy MUST FALL I've found this game on accident Mentioned in a comparison in a review of another game on steam (Mech Havoc) I looked into it, bought it, tried it Then absolutely and utterly fell in love with it It's a true labour of love in each and every way It's a masterpiece in every way of the word For any frustration there's ten more things to love about this game And once you truly start to get it it's too late to run You're hooked, you're in it and you're attempting the Closed Casket Special with Precursor James for the fifth time with a fifth different build and you've gotten oh so further than before but then you got blown up by a stray you didn't notice and ♥♥♥♥ it we're trying again straight away even though i just spend an hour and a half on it i'm going again i'm not getting titled and oh i'm dead. Run it again. No Efi, i don't need a different gun run it again. This game and it's lore and it's writing has affected me so deeply i'm genuinely considering getting the Brigador emblem as a tatoo Would love a blessing from the devs/copyright holders WELCOME BRIGADOR

I don't know how to phrase this without sounding like a danger to society so I'll just write it out and hope for the best: In 2004, Marvin Heemeyer culminated over a year's worth of conversations with himself and God in his derelict muffler shop turned garage and began his rampage across town. Fitted inside a bulldozer covered in a helmet of QuickCrete and steel plates lowered onto its chassis, the MKTank(or Killdozer) began its caterpillar speed path of destruction across Granby, Colorado. People have a tendency to overstate the "genius" of his design. Don't get me wrong: It got the job done, but it's not a piece of mechanical ingenuity. Anyways, Marvin's one way trip saw him in his beater tank plow through everything until the engine's stress or wear on the coolant systems of his bulldozer began to obscure his already limited vision via security cameras fed to CRT and he toppled into a basement and got stuck. You know how it ends. This game not only has the Killdozer, but it is the essential Killdozer experience. No, not in the Tread On Them t-shirt or whatever sense, I mean that the thing goes like 2mph with only small arms to complement its trampling ability and you'll spend lots of time enjoying the rush of destruction up until an unforeseen issue arises and you die.

Overall, a polished title with an excellent soundtrack, beautiful dystopian aesthetics, coupled with simple gameplay filled with variety and replayability. It's perfect for a low-commitment gaming session at the end of a busy day. Egged on by an adrenaline-pumping synthwave soundtrack, you pilot a mech as a mercenary hired by a corporation seeking to wrest back control of Solo Nobre from an authoritarian regime - and neither side are saints. You have the choice of playing the campaign or going on freelance missions - while both provide a similar gameplay experience, the story missions serve as a tutorial that eases you into the various mech playstyles, coupled with some world-building lore. The lore of Brigador is deeper than perceived and while text-based, is supported by superb writing. Gameplay is straightforward (note: pilot mech, shoot stuff, use tactics, complete mission) but chaotically fun. Experimenting with the different weapon combinations and mech types is a joy - the possibilities are endless: you can ride a motorcycle with a big mounted "F-U" cannon and machine guns on top or a giant mech with huge cluster mortars that can level an entire neighbourhood in a couple of seconds. Destruction is highly satisfying, and the sound design is crisp. Recommended (especially if it's on sale)! A-
