Was very fun but entirely too short for the price point. Wait for a sale.

Game is fun, Dev is active in Discord and actively making balance changes. Dev took my save file, tried it, agreed it needed to be toned down. "....yeah if you ever think something is not balance, challenge me to play it" - Dev Respect.

Great game, found it by accident. Beat it in 7 hours and I was taking my sweet time.. I hope they add more maps and like Creeper World method where its a huge library of maps, or even player generated maps.

TL;DR: 6.5 out of 10, wildly unbalanced, but still pretty fun. Buy on deep sale only for a few hours of fun. While I'm marking this positive, because I had fun with the game, this review will mostly cover stuff I found negative...which is quite a lot. To begin with, the balancing is wack. Human damage is either wildly overtuned, or non-existent depending upon the bugs you decide to unlock and play with. For example, Warrior bugs can get 8 or 11 armor relatively easily, trivializing the early game entirely, while other bugs *melt* to the AoE that the humans can output with fire or turrets or tanks/rockets later. On the other side, spitters have the same range as humans, but due to their attack animation can't finish their attack before you lose most of them. Spore towers and Artillery are entirely worthless with their nonexistent damage. Might as well be firing spitballs at your foes. Etc. Etc. Etc. There's a lot of flaws in the balancing. A looot. There's no endless mode or randomly generated campaigns or anything, which isn't necessarily bad. But the fact you don't get enough evo points to unlock "enough" stuff to play with more than one or two bug types at a time means that if you don't figure out the meta method to easily beat the levels(Titans with damage reflect for static defenses and AoE, and Warriors to tank so titans can get in range), then you'll have a really hard time even on easy difficulty. The lack of replayability is a major downside in a game this short. Once you get above a certain # of buggos on the field, they stutter-step towards the humans, while the humans continue to fire their weapons at the same rate. This means that at certain saturation levels of buggos, you *lose* effectiveness as your bugs become turn-based, while the humans wreck your stuff into equilibrium and you're forced to micro your unit pins to spread them out. Or delete structures to increase their mobility again. This feeds into why Titans are good, as there'll be less of them, and the damage reflection will still kill the humans, even if you never get into range yourself. Armor is both too strong and too weak, depending upon the units. The #s are just either far too high, or don't exist. Increasing HP by about 60% and damage by 20-40% would smooth this out a bit. It'd likely require rebalancing the unit movespeeds slightly as well. Effectively, it's all or none in most cases, as unless you're building tank units with red crystals, they'll still die near-instantly. Due to the lack of evo points, Swarm Queen's green evo to spawn every unit becomes ridiculously worse than swarmer queen, as you can upgrade swarmers with it, but you cannot upgrade more than 1-2 other units with it. Due to how the spawn cap was implemented, the swarm queens will instantly annihilate the cap until they're killed, and the un-upgraded units aren't even valuable as chaff to soak up damage due to the extreme amount of AoE the humans get even extremely early in the game. Fire. Fire does something ridiculous like 2damage per game tick. This means that everything except Warriors with the 1->0 armor effect can't even get near it without turning into a puff of smoke. Spitters and Swarmers with a bit of bonus HP can sometimes get in range of the fire enemy or turret and slowly whittle them down, but it's annoying and slow. Wasps require micro, straight up, but can be incredibly overpowered on some maps since you can just wrap them around the map to pop spawners. They're otherwise niche and useless, as the stutter-step will cause them to be unable to close with anything except for civilians. Also, their spawn-on-kill mechanic requires available spawn cap, and thus doesn't function if you're already capped. Boom slugs appear to chain their explosions back to your spawner so appeared worthless to me. This may be incorrect however as I didn't explore their possibilities at all due to the above issues, their stats and speed(and stutter-stepping) made me not even consider them. Builders have...many issues, and you're *nearly required* to spend points to remove their micro requirements so they auto-build and auto-goo. However, goo upgrades trivializes all of the human's weakest units, meaning you can just focus on the meta-build of killing strong units. The only armor-shred in the game is spitters, meaning that you can focus on them with warriors as your front-line wall(And huge damage source) early-midgame until you have titans to AoE everything down in 1-2 hits. However, as stated above. The short range of spitters, combined with human AoE, and stutter-stepping means that this didn't turn out to be the most effective build. Letting the humans kill themselves and get AoE'd down by titans was by far more effective in every instance, as the reflect is armor ignoring. Anyways, as stated in my tl;dr, the game was fun, but there's so many issues with the balancing and how buggo pathing functions that I'd only recommend this game at $5-10, not the $20 it's listed at.

Pretty fun, but by planet 5, every battle is either "have a perfect build or lose", and the second mission of planet 6 basically demands you be perfect or the mechs will one tap your hives.
