Edit edit: it's now halfway through 2022 and this game still crashes, is incomplete, and content deficient. it's still a tech demo. It's fun, but sadly, this is just NOT a good game and despite promises to come back to it, it doesn't seem like it ever will be. This is the last time i try to play this mess until a massive, major, update is provided. Edit: It has been a year and a half since release and frankly this has not gotten any major updates in the meantime. sure, a couple things here or there, but nothing to really be worth investing my time playing this. But, i do want to mention some really awesome things the developer is doing right. 1.) the very first game that fans were so happy with and wanting balancing? He fixed a HUGE amount of things and added content... for free. essentially remastered Unloved for free. that's a huge deal in my book that a developer would do that. 2.) He is still developing a NEW GAME which is a much smaller one to fund the development of this one...

About This Game
Our timeline has collapsed and many didn't even notice. Since then, inexplicable mysteries started happening all over the world. Strange sightings of objects and beings. Crop circles appeared. Cattle mutilation. Memories that didn't reflect reality anymore. The list gets longer every day...
All of this was just the beginning. Since then, hundreds of years have passed. It all spiraled out of control. One day, strange portals to another dimension have opened and Demons poured out. An endless war began. Some cities have created plasma domes around them, protecting them from the eternal onslaught. But most now lie in ruins.
Some extraordinary people who were able to survive long enough in the ruins have harnessed special abilities. In the eye of the public, these powers are deemed evil and it is said they are of demonic nature. These special people are outcasts, not allowed to enter the Domes of safety anymore. They are called Drifters.
Features
- Super fluid action gameplay. Tight controls compared with animation cancelling actions make you feel in absolute control 100% of the time.
- Brutal Action combined with a deep Pen&Paper RPG world. The World of Dimension Drifter has been created over a period of 15 years as a Pen&Paper RPG foundation. Reveal more and more about the world as you progress through the missions.
- Endless levels that are randomly arranged each time you play. But robots can't design intuitive maps. As a modern mapper for the original Doom, I've added certain intelligence to the level creation to make it feel as humanly crafted as possible. Each room piece is also designed by hand to give everything you see a manmade feel.
- Thousands of randomized progression items. Like in Diablo and other loot-oriented games, the game offers almost endless combinations of items you can find to improve your Drifter.
- Visual character customization is also a great aspect of the game design. Choose between Male or Female Drifter and have a lot of outfits to mix and match, with tons of colors to choose for each piece. I want the Drifter to be YOUR OWN! However, during the very early Early Access time, this content may be limited to only a few options.

This game is a contender for the worst FPS game of the year 2018 and a disgrace to the Unreal engine. It is an attempt to grab some easy money from an unfinished product that offers little in respect to gameplay. The game looks like something you can get for free in the nineties, yet is expensive for no apparent reason. It even uses monster models from the previous game of the developer, Unloved, for a fast and blatant cash grab from naïve Steam players. Worst of all, due to poor developer skills, the game constantly crashes. I played it for 6 hours the day I bought it and I counted seven crashes. If you do not believe me, take a look at this screenshot: https://cloudup.com/cv2NSx1YutA Stay away from this cheater who calls himself a game developer. You have been warned!
so this is essentially just a stripped down doom clone with procedurally generated levels and a coomerbait character, you've got a pistol and a shotgun and three dashes and you go around killing reskinned pinkies, imps and pistol dudes and looting chests. you can't customise the appearance of your character, which is different from what's shown in promotional images on the steam store page, but you can slightly recolour your weapons. the weapon and player mods seem really minor and you really don't get a choice of them anyway since you only get one loot drop per level along with a reskin colour??? if you really want to play the first two levels of doom over and over again with a giant ass in your face then go ahead but i wanted to play all the levels of doom with greater weapon variety AND a giant ass in my face and in this i am disappointed
Awesome 3rd person shooter game with a sexy female protagonist ..in this game you need complete different stages and defend yourself of an army of demons ..in my opinion is pretty easy and i consider also very fun and it also have character customize which now aint so much great but game is in early access so more will come ...but until that is still a great shooter game to play and have fun ...enjoy !!
This game has the potential to be my favorite game bought this year. I love the gameplay, very fluid, natural translation of movement aiming, and shooting. I really liked the nod to UNLOVED and DOOM. It combines my three most favorite of things; guns,jiggle physics, and gore. I really enjoy the third person aspect, despite not really enjoying that viewpoint, I felt it translated solidly. I liked the RPG elements, the character design, and the level design so far, and am looking forward to seeing how this progresses through early access. The game develepors are definitely doing a whole lot of something right, keep up the amazing work.
There's nothing quite like Dimension Drifter. It'll keep you on your toes with it's fast and frantic combat, with a large packs of mobs scattered around, and some more that spawn in all around. Careful not to let yourself get trapped in a room once you've opened a Golden Chest. The pistol and shotgun are satisfying to fire, good visions and sound FX. I particularly like the pistol-flick to eject the mag on reload. So far, it seems you play through self-contained mini-episodic campaigns. You keep the pick-ups, like armour, bombs, health, etc. between levels, but only levels within that episode. Starting a new episode puts you back to limited starting ammo. Dimension Drifter has realised it's potential. Even this early in Devlopment, solid base with a fair bit to do. I'm left hungry for more
Good lord this game is way much more fun than I ever could have imagined. I absolutely love this developers previous game (Unloved) but this one just didn't look as good judging by the gameplay and screenshots but MAN was I wrong! This game is so addictive that I'm pretty sure the 8 hours I've played so far were completely in a row with no breaks. The action is very fast paced, the shooting is in third person, there are several RPG elements in place, and it's just super fun to play. And that's what's really most important. If you like old school shooters like Doom or even the new Doom, Wolfenstein, etc. I think you will find a TON to love with this title. There is SO much replayability that I just can't stop playing it. My new addiction has a name. And it's name is Dimension Drifter. I've started a Youtube series for tihs game if you want to see what some of the gameplay looks like. I recorded like 15 episodes or something ridiculous so this series will be slowly updated over time: ...
A smooth 3rd person (bonus! specially with thee.. added.. um, elements) arcade-ish style run and gun for an Early Access with nice gameplay and collectables. + Great hands on DEV - very active and hands on (this is reason #1 for me buying this game) + Fun, fast, and smooth action + Great graphical style (could be a - for some but I love it) + Elements of Unloved made it here (reason #2) + Booty Chest (not the loot chests either... you will know...) - Some may find repetative (+ for me) - Grinding for colors and booty chests may not be for all (+ for me) - Early Access (meh - but I like EA if used for the right purpose, which in the case is) If you like Running & Gunning (and dashing just added!) in a proc. gen. environment with smooth tasty fps and don't get bored of repetition and grind - this is for you. ..and it only has room to get better and grow. I will admit when I saw the price I was hesitant - BUT it's one dude (impressive) who is always hands on (instant +) who I gave...
I loved the 'unloved' game by this developer and just recently found out about dimension drifter. Even if the game is still in EA, it is very well playable. Fast paced run & gun gameplay with randomly generated levels. If you liked 'unloved' you will love this game! This game is made by only 1 person, which is very impressive for the quality provided! I can't wait for the final product, to see what else it will have in store. And please consider adding a multiplayer option in the future aka unloved :)
For the first two days, I have found this game fast-Paced, fun, and challenging. I personally find its a little pricy, especially in its current form and at this early in development, but regardless, the game is a lot of fun, and I'm looking forward to seeing the developer progress in building & dressing this game up.
