About This Game

RD Mars is a top-down shooter where you play as an AI reconstruction of a once-great inventor, Felix Darwins. Explore the laboratory, and learn of his rise and downfall. RD Mars has a series of mechanical innovations making the genre like you've never seen before. RD Mars is a game that challenges traditional conceptions of what video games are creatively through an uncompromising artistic vision and subversion of traditional narrative.


Features:
  • A strong, character-driven story that explores the human condition.
  • A unique parry-based combat loop with a focus on the fluidity of play.
  • Mystery and intrigue that drives players to uncover the secrets of this world.

RD Mars analyzes the pitfalls of this inventor’s mind while you explore both the lab, but also Mars himself.

RD Mars is an unusual beast, being part adventure/puzzle game, part visual novel, and part 2D top down shooter. And this depth of game design would be welcome, if it was matched with high quality technical implementation... which RD Mars is not. It seems like a lot of effort was wasted putting a frankly immaculate cosmetic routine onto a dead pig. From a technical perspective, the game doesn't meet basic minimum requirements that most PC gamers expect as standard. A choice was made to use obsolete, decades old retro pixel "art" as a substitute for contemporary PC graphics. It's unclear if this is due to lack of budget or talent, regardless, the overall visual quality of the game is extremely low as a result. There's no options to change the resolution for the game or customise the graphics settings. There's no way for gamers to ensure this is running at the native resolution of their displays... there's no guarantee this game will look right on any PC as a result of this hamfis...

RD Mars is a enjoyable game with an immersive story. I play tested the game,(for free) and bought it to play again, and I was pleasantly surprised with each play! This is somewhat irrelevant but I purchased the game with the hopes of writing about it for my english class. Thanks Ty for making a game that is analyzable for a Rhetorical Analysis :).

So, been playing the game here and there. Great way to kill time. RD Mars really pulls you win, with some surprising story elements and awesome game mechanics, it still freaks me out that ONE GUY made this game. A humble creation from a humble creator. If you are looking for a fun and fast shooter from the view of a robot then go for it. Having a really good time playing the game, try it out. It will leave you satisfied.
