So my friend and I were browsing the steam store late this winter night looking for a cheep trashy game when we stumbled upon this. Didn’t expect much, and thought it would just be a laugh, but after playing our first few rounds we started really enjoying it. It probably isn’t game of the year material, but for its cheap price you are definitely getting something worth the price.

I generally don't leave reviews. Especially positive ones because I personally find the negetive ones to be more beneficial to if I will or wont purchase a game. This game was a "For the moment" pick up with a day to spare waiting for a patch for another game to release before we hit it hard as a group. What was ment to be a 3 or 4 hour time waster turned into something far more than that. It became something that other developers, other players and other people who may or may not purchase wish every game and developer should be. Ill explain: We started this game, We're a simple group and what we were looking for was just something close to a flash game that we can mindless kill things that isnt Alian Swarm. What we found was that and more. The moment is pretty seemless, even living across the country the network delay from their moments and actions to mine had very little issue within the game. Implemented far better than some other lower-end games (i mean nothing bad by this). Graphics were better than expected with day and nights, the usage of lighting or lack there of was comical adding that extra little bit of ' OH crap!' that adds a new feeling to the game. Weather effects was a nice little spice added to the game. A handful of upgrades for each item in the game except weapons. Turrets have multiple layers to them, upgrading barracades and spikes and more. Now lets move onto the developers, something that usually comes with a huge red flag these days.. especially in days like together with the Blizzard disaster or the Bethesda disaster or the consistant implosion of others without naming the majority of big-game devs. This game's devs are BY FAR some of the best and most responsive to players. Rummaging through the discussion to see very quick response to peoples issues, complaints or constructive criticism. I personally after playing for a handful of hours decided to see if they were only there for a week to make it not look like a cash grab and to my surprise. The first response is directly from the dev responding to a pretty large handful of criticism i had with the game and even a small list of things i think should be fixed, adjusted added or even removed. Surprisingly the Dev liked some of my Ideas and even put them in on the next patch and even added a few for things to be implemented a little later in development due to complexity. So really, Ill try to sum up this whole experience in the way most people do in a number scheme base on What they are, and what was expected for the genre. Graphics: 8 | Expected: 6 -- Better than most in the genre with a little flash game kinda feel. Gameplay: 7 | Expected: 3 -- No one really plays these for gameplay, just mindless and it was way better than expected. Developers: 10 | Expected: 2 -- These days, anything is better than the usual. But these guys are top notch. Support: 9 | Expected: 6 -- Far faster return times on fixing broken things making user experience way more enjoyable. Value: 9 | Expected: 4 -- The game at its price point is a no brainer. You have that much in your couch doing nothing. Pick this game up, get some friends to pick it up. Hit up some multiplayer games and crank up the difficulty and enjoy hours of fun.

My friends and I spent a whole Sunday playing through this. Very fun. After numerous failed strategies, we eventually killed the final boss by stacking approximately 500 landmines in one spot, yelling "WITNESS ME!" over Discord, and leading him to them. The ensuing explosion nearly crashed the game, but we rode shiny and chrome into glory. 10/10, best $2 I ever spent.

Overall a good game, definitely worth the price tag. I have two suggestions that I think would help this game: 1) Either increase the time between waves or make it so that the players can determine when the next waves comes. Especially when you are first starting, there is no way a player can figure out the skill tree, build their defenses, and buy their guns all within 30 seconds. 2) Make a leaderboard for the Endless Mode! Hope this helps, stay salty.
