Formal Review of "Apogee: Apex of War" for Steam: Playability: -Pros: This single-player campaign focused 1st/3rd person shooter explores a futuristic series of worlds linked via an in-game portal looping system. The player may choose between views according to their preference (I preferred the 1st-person view mode in this game). Running/Sprinting/Jumping functions well, and does not glitch on take-off or landing. A summation of 15 boss fights is climactically overcome over the high-value ~20 hours of solid gameplay. The developer took their time to create a variety of worlds, each unique in their own regard, rather than being a single-environment game. I felt this was a strong point for Apogee, as I get bored with many games that trap the player in a single environment. A fancy feature I also enjoyed was how the powering up blinked me into the direction of my momentum without glitching (unlike other games I have played). Blinking made dominating my enemies possible, as this game for...

In the year 2283, a revolutionary new technology emerged. Neurobond, promising to end mortality for humanity, accomplished what many had been seeking for centuries. It allowed for the transfer of the human mind into a computer interface, allowing people to take on mechanical bodies, effectively ending the threat of death.
As a result, humanity was able to usher in an age of prosperity the earth had ever witnessed and began to expand across the stars. As time passed, more and more humans began to cast aside the mortal coil of their organic bodies and join the Ascended, as the humans-turned-machine referred to themselves. However, all was not paradise.
Those who maintained their flesh and blood noticed subtle differences in how their Ascended loved ones talked and acted. As these noted differences became widespread, many humans began to band together on the basis of religion, claiming those who had been Neurobonded had become soulless husks without emotion or empathy.
At first, many dismissed these warnings and conspiracy theories. Eventually, however, videos began to circulate showing hidden factories where unwilling people were being Neurobonded into totally obedient machines. Shortly after, the governments that had not already been infiltrated attempted to destroy these “Soulless” before humanity was lost.
After many years of fighting, the earth had become a barren, nuclear wasteland, and efforts were redirected to containing the Soulless there, while humanity would continue amongst the various colonies on other worlds. What humanity failed to anticipate was that the Soulless had already followed them and infiltrated many of the colonies. The process of Neurobonding continued…
As one of the last humans free from the tyranny of the Soulless, it is up to you to take up the fight and drive back the machines to save what is left of humanity from extinction.

Do you like EDF games? This is like that with robots replacing the bugs, and the enemies being slightly smaller, smaller locales too, but the action is just as much fun as those EDF shooters. The game is a little janky, but very playable, runs pretty smooth too, overall I was hoping this would be as fun as the trailer was, and it is. I hope it gets a little love and care so it can really shine, but I am glad to have supported this dude, he gave me a great gift, a fun game, nothing better than that. Thanks dude, I really love what you created. (Update, the game is very challenging but fun, however, one major issue does really hamper/ruin the experience, ammo does not drop nearly enough, so I end up dying due to a lack of ammo, instead of being bested by the A.I fairly.)
