After beating the game I found many things: The communist Dogifesto is a cute but mature game for its sense and style. It has traits of system shock, space age crafting supplies by finding loot or materials set into categories and reminds me a bit of bioshock or System shock with the augments you can install. While a bit difficult and honest of a shooter it was fun to play and once beating it I enjoyed it alot but was sad. It was good, honest and system of pixel like fps with some good ideas and design, sound and music too that made me feel there was more to be this. TCD runs smoothly, rarely crashing on me. My only regret was not being able to enjoy it the same way as knowing everythign about the game I kind of wish for another take on it. Maybe something with randomly generated levels, interacting with the levels or objects a bit more. But this is a good game and I loved it a lot for what it was worth.

About This Game
The Communist Dogifesto is a science fiction first-person shooter set on a Soviet space station in Lunar orbit, which has been used as a platform for experimentation on the Russian space dogs. Unfortunately, dogs this deep in space have more tricks in their vac suit than the scientists accounted for. Now Laika has taken over and you are the only one left who can take back the station, or at least attempt to escape with your life!
In order to survive and defeat Laika and her robotic footsoldiers, you will have to gain new abilities with tech upgrades, recycle scrap materials you find lying around into usable items, read data logs written by the ousted humans to find keycodes and to explore new areas of the station, and do a lot of good old fashioned shooting!
Features a hand-designed space station to explore, eight unique tech upgrades to choose from, pages of in-universe data logs from the scientists and other staff which reveal the nature of the work done on the station as well as vital information to access new areas and items, and several different endings based on in-game actions.

Has the gameplay of the venerable System Shock game, except for the mouse-driven crosshairs. If you are like me, and really loved that playstyle, then you might enjoy this, despite the problems. It is a short game where you shoot floating dog-heads and craft health packs. There are even a few fun upgrades. Maybe get it on sale, because the developer did some interesting work. It might even be worth a couple bucks to check it out. Unfortunately, the game has some really big hits against it. First the little annoyances: The game uses Quicksaves for saving progress. There is no in-game map. The one video resolution is very, very low. Then, more importantly, it crashes occassionally when loading a quicksave, and the Y-invert does not work for gamepad controllers. And why no Russian language anywhere? Many rooms are pitch-black dark, and that means looking at a small flashlight spot on the screen, while it quickly gets dimmer and flickers. And the lack of light also causes problems with ...
bork bork bork bork!!!!!
Totally worth full price. Short, quirky, somewhat challenging, in short exactly what an indie game should be. Pros: - Unique and engaging story. - Rewarding gameplay: it's fun to figure stuff out by yourself and the game really doesn't handhold more than absolutely necessary. - The assets have nice little touches. - Funny bits here and there. - Simple in a good way. Cons: - The UI could use some work, though it's functional enough. - The flashlight mechanic doesn't add much, I ended up forgetting about it. All in all, good length for the kind of game it is, but I would totally play a longer version of this. Well done, Joshua Giles! Make more!
