Another Close Miss
The game has potential, but is another app store miss. Controls aren't great, sometimes I find myself circling around a power-up, but at least it has a calibrate feature so you can play in whatever position you want. There is no real objective aside from to kill stuff. It's a 3 minute round, and you try to find what you can in the time while killing other robots. Sometimes it flashes a "Bonus Mission" message at the beginning, along with an intended objective, but I've yet to complete one of these. There is no "Story Mode." Basically you find story discs while playing, and you can read about the background story of the game. That's it. . . Also, there is no way to get back the main menu once you enter a game. If you retire in the middle of a match it only has the option to start a new one, and it's the same when you finish a match.
Basically, this game suffers from the same thing as the first few Tony Hawk Pro Skater games did. There is a short time limit, and you don't feel like you can explore much during it. Plus, combat boils down to getting an enemy robot within range of one of your weapons and then just holding your finger anywhere on the screen to fire. Ranged weapons totally own melee since you can just stay far away and kill without taking any damage.
What this game needs:
-Multiplayer
-Story Mode (pre-set missions with objectives, possibly time limits on some of the missions, but not most of them)
-Ability to rotate the camera (right now the camera is static and sometimes you can't see around large rocks and such)
-A page with descriptions on the game items (the golden cogs heal you, but I have no idea what any other non-combat items do)
-More weapons (a game about robot combat needs more than 4 weapons)
If they added that stuff it would easily be 4-5 stars.
Wow!
Awesome graphics on the iPhone! The high scores and achievements are a great feature too! Another really fun game from Flashbang Studios!
