Sound design is mediocre, and I'm not saying this just to insult. Here is my feedback. Firstly, when looking at proper sound design you need six things to be in shape. -Panning: sound direction between left and right output. -Balance: Prioritiztion of sound, what needs to be heard. Usually dialogue in top priority -Equalization: Managing your frequencies. Bass-treble Low-High. -Dynamics: When things are loud or soft and when they need to be loud or soft -Levels: Technical standpoint of the waves output level. In this games case it is too much, the sound clips often -Dimensions: Reverb, Delay. This directly correlates to atmosphere in parrallel with everything above Footsteps: They are very dry, and their volume should be lowered slightly. They need a touch of reverb in order to give them that metalic room vibe and overall this should help in atmosphere. Atmosphere: From what I've heard, there is none. A consistant deep bass drone tone is not going to give you any form of atmosphere...

Starship Troopers & Aliens had a kid that was accidentally dropped on it's head but was still lovable & cute. There were a few bugs (pun intended) but the level design was solid and weapons were alot of fun. Might need a bit of optimisation but still worth it.
I really liked this game. It was a lot of fun. I wish it was longer and had more puzzles. The last wiring puzzle was fun. You could have more open areas with puzzles solving in order to move on. The flashlight is a little irritating as you have to stop in the dark and wait for it to recharge. There could be upgrades for that. Waiting for more content. I really like the basic concept type games like this.
At current price I would recommend purchasing this game. Short game but entertaining. I would like to see more to this game. PROS: - Sound is good - Zero Glitches - Gameplay UI is intuitive. CONS - It's a bit short as it took me only 4 hours on normal to complete. - There are no bosses but plenty of critters to kill. - I cant say the replay is very high.
this game is awesome I'd totaly would recomend you play this game
Enjoyed the game. Ran flawlesly on my Linux machine. Hope there'll be additional content in the future.
Not bad, though poor in variety regarding environment, environmental ambience and enemies. Kinda boring but a solid foundation in an indie fps. I hope to see more from these guys.
The Game is kind of boring game No Story in the game ,few enemy in the game and sound is nothing not recommend
its a god game but it plays more likw a survivel game then a horor game ammumition is to plenteful the puzzles ar to easy and the game very short i hope the Devs ad more monsters exampel flying exploding enemys or enemys that kan walk on wals the generater room is the perfect room to introduce thes enemys and the game is missing music Conclusin: its a god game but it is not worth 10 Dollars in its present state
[h1]Return to Planet X[/h1] [i]Corridor like FPS with drab-repetitive sci-fi environment where you move from one room to another in a linear manner and clear them of alien creatures - game is slow paced and very easy/short ( so play on last difficulty for a challenge ) - i liked the weapons design/selection and the fact that they had recoil so i recommend this title at the price that i have paid 7€ ![/i]
