GDEVELOP Game Engine Examples: SWIRL WATCH

Our honest feedback

The game is interesting from a point of view of its concept, where you have to use the communication system and sonar to find the enemies, and then engage in a fight with them.

Finding your way through the level initially is somewhat complicated until you discover that all the words on the background are actually a way to find the coordinates where to go, as the names are given as reference.

Once there, the sonar makes easy to see, invisible enemies, but from this point on, the game becomes very complex, as it is not very clear ( at least for us) how to aim and fire at the enemy, especially when the enemies seem to be able to teletransport themselves between random positions.

The impression that it gives, is that you are not on the same level and that the enemies have more resources and mechanics than you.

None the less, the game is fun and well made, some of the SFx are great, and the detection-fight system have a lot of potential.

Graphically speaking, the game has a clean a simple art style that performs well and you almost thing that you are looking at the action through terminal, control some drones.
