poor mans xcom. the overworld map is inspired by ftl and the fights are inspired by xcom. here you are running away from the red line or you'll get really hard fights. you'll run into stations to acquire gear/ship stuff/new people/quests also you can find planet's, ships, and other events. you'll find items at these places or get into fights and no there are no ship battles like ftl. your ship can be upgraded but there isn't really much to it outside the combat upgrades. combat is done like xcom. you get 2 actions but if you attack or reload (without the upgrade) these will take both actions...well unless you use them as your 2nd action. you can have a squad of up to 5 with a choice of 6 classes (3 are unlockables) and most things from xcom are here nads, healing, defib, overwatch, cover and missing a 100% hit rate attack to a dodge. if you're not into roguelite games maybe pass on this as they expect you to fail a few times before you can unlock the random chance of beater stuff popping up in a run. it's good for only 1+ people working on it and this is great for a indie game. if you like xcom and can handle the graphics and rogeliteness of the game then maybe give this a shot.
Galaxy Squad is what happens when someone watched FireFly, played some XCOM and wanted to cross it with FTL but had no idea about game design. It's a mish-mash of a lot of ideas, none which really work together and all of them with a substandard quality. The rogue-like approach is great until you realize that there's a very limited amount of items, enemies and events to find. The promise of the game is great, the writing is atrocious, and the storylines don't even conclude after the final battle. And yet, it's a fascinating game design bit, especially coming from a single developer. Grab it on a sale, spend a few hours saving or selling out the galaxy, then get back to XCOM.
Cheap, rough graphics, but working combination as a low budget game. For some reason I just play again and again. After 500 hours there still happens new things to me. New quests, new weapon and so on...And sometimes a whole game is over and I still did not find my favourite weapon...Not a single one... Worth it's price, if under 50€....
I thought I had left a very scathing review of Galaxy Squad first time trying it... and gave up on it after an hour or so... I came to correct that review, but find it missing. So, why did I hate it, and why do I not now? It was extremely bland and buggy to begin with and the difficulty didn't balance well... Went from super easy to impossible. Well, decided to give it another go and... Well, it seems pretty easy so far, (but I'm not on hardest difficulty, so thats OK). It doesn't seem buggy anymore, appears the developer has done a lot of work. The game still seems a little bland. The Engrish is amusingly bad at times... But... It's a decent casual xcom-light that provides some decent entertainment now. Don't spend a lot of money on this, but for under $5, for a casual Turnbased game, it's worth that for a change from replaying XCOM or Xenonauts for the umpteenth time.
The bad reviews for this game are due to players not unlocking everything (which takes a few game runs) or not playing all the game modes. I have logged 17.6 hours and have beaten the campaign twice. Extreme difficulty can kill you early, eventually you do get pretty bad ass and then it is hard to die. The story has different branches that have different cut scenes and fights - I had two completely different stories in both play throughs. The story is kinds silly but the ending can surprise you - I had an ending that did not even have a final fight ... just a satisfying cut scene. There is definitely content in this game ... i have not unlocked everything yet. The battles are strange at first because you need to realize to use the number keys and space bar to confirm actions ... not the mouse. The battles are weak in the start but get more complicated. I kind of wish the enemies had your own skills - your mercs have some very cool abilities and the enemies have their own unique abilities but they never use your own. It would be cool to fight enemies that used your tank skills etc. Overall it is a good game, it glitched twice while buying gear in a store BUT the game auto saves your progress so you lose nothing. Please remember however to use the keyboard more than mouse. Once you do that the fights are comfortable.
