A.I. Invasion

[b]NB: Marked as negative due to no neutral option, as while I can't recommend this game at this time there is potential, and whether you like it will depend on the direction it ends up going with balancing the twin stick action side with the tactical side of gameplay.[/b] A lot like a PC version of Helldivers, both aesthetically and from it's squad based top down shooting action where you have to be mindful of your team mates positioning due to friendly fire. But whereas Helldivers was heavy on coop, at the moment this is completely absent from A.I Invasion. Control of your team mates is ironically handled by the A.I when you're not issuing orders which is done by selecting your "minion" with either aiming your mouse reticle over them and pressing Q or pressing one of the 1-4 keys. Once selected you then hold left shift and press the 1-4 keys to select an appropriate action, ie to follow you or send them over to hold position at where your mouse reticle is. This wouldn't be a prob...

A.I. Invasion is a top-down shooter that has you and your squad of soldiers completing different tasks and killing a load of mech robots to reclaim the world. I'm definitely looking forward to this game coming out of early access over the next few months :D I've only played the first 2 missions at the time of writing this review but so far here are the pros and the cons of the game in my opinion: Pros: Smooth Gameplay. A lot of action. Well structured levels. Nice graphics. Good price. It has an objective marker on the map so you know where to go during missions. Cons: When in the middle of an objective the map won't display the objective marker which left me exploring a friendly base for like 15 minutes thinking it was the enemy base and I didn't have a clue that the objective was in the opposite direction. I've edited this review as there was a couple more cons which the developer kindly cleared up for me in a reply to this review. This review is based only off the first 2 level...

Good enough to glide in spotless relaxation, nevertheless I must warn you that no one will be [strike]cummlng[/strike] blowing loads or busting nuts or anything. I'll disclose furthermore that I won't be dumping this game if I'm enjoying it, apart from all the negativity. Tons of hogwash I've read just to throw out one's chest. Gerund is, although, my aversion for games that lacks intrincate plot and live the basics of the same, like A.I. Invasion is. It can be incoherent and diminishes the existencial purpose of what the *uck I'm doing and why the *uck I'm fighting for. But at least there are clear objectives to find the meaning of life. I struggle basic commutatives for this that you'd compest, though I do, I don't give a shi* if it is just fun. In the end this is what matters to me. Understated simplification: It is like Halo: Spartan Assault with squad and no cover.

So, I gave this game a chance despite the negative reviews while it was on sale for $1. Sadly I think it deserves the negative reaction. There are some good points. The artwork is good for the price. There are some decently designed levels. The negatives were very frustrating however. The biggest one is the control, which is key in an action game. On the default settings the camera would jump all over the place if I got the cursor too near to the edge of the screen.... which happened almost constantly making the game naseau inducing to play even for the 2d perspective as the camera jerks around. I went to the options to turn the mouse sensitivity way down, which helped with the camera jerkiness, but then made it take too long to aim at the enemies. This is on top of your squad members, which barely seem to respond to your commands. Now the squad members don't get themselves killed and can help, but again, the control of them just did not feel satisfying. Finally, several tim...

While this game works with a controller, is really feels like its intended for a mouse. For me thats a dealbreaker, I prefer using a controller, but this game wasn't optimized for it... While this is a "top down shooter" I wouldn't call it a "twin stick shooter" Thats my only complaint; but its enough to keep from playing.

Gameplay and keycontrols are bad

I don't seggest to buy this game at all... More correctly I would say neutral... it has potential. many bugs... -I can't use the special item, I order my team to use it, but they do anything... I use the "F" button, it swap the weapon but do nothing... -the check point or objective is not updated properly sometime... -there are many cases that after I fail the mission and I retry, I can't move my teamleader... -no tutorial, so I need to read fast when the game is loading to read all the input key... the 3D or elevation of the game is not well make... When I was walking in a ladder, it doesn't feel like you are going higher...

Game could be intereseting, but it crashes on 4/20 missions.

no

fuck it
