Looks like this suffers from an extreme case of special effect overkill. I imagine it would get pretty hard to keep track of what's going on on-screen.

 

[gellert1984]

This looks like a throw back to scrolling shooters from the 90's, unimpressed.

 

[Latinidiot]

You know, when I see 'evil empire', I immediately lose all interest.

 

[Smooth Operator]

That would make an awesome flash game, but they haven't got much more beyond that.
Maybe port it to iphone/pad and make loads of money there...

 

[WrongSprite]

Looks kinda cool, but they're definitely trying to get a bulletstorm vibe with the whole 'blow shit up' thing. Censoring it makes it lame though.

 

[CatinHat]

Looks like it took ideas from games from the 90s / flash games into one. I think i'll save my money and play a free flash game.

 

[Stammer]

Yeah, I'm with the rest of you guys.

It looks decent, but it's one of those games that's going to be almost unplayable because the environments are too detailed that you're not going to be able to see what the hell's going on.

This is a great example of graphics being "too good".

 

[RA92]

This wouldn't look too out of place in a modern-day NeoGeo...

 

[OldNewNewOld]

Reminds me of Chicken Invaders.
I MUST play this.

 

[Fenixius]

Gradius with legs. Ugh.

Mechs deserve more than this...

 

[Rogue 9]

A quasi-shmup played from an RTS game viewpoint? It could be fun, but honestly looks too frantic and visually busy to be able to keep track of everything that's going on.

And if you're going to have it from such a zoomed out viewpoint with such visual clutter, what's the point of making it about Mechs? Mechs are massive and stompy and awesome. You should be able to enjoy the fact that you're in a giant war machine, not look like you're interchangeable with, well, anything at all.

 

[shiaramoon]

This makes me think of Magicka, but with guns and no blowing yourself up.... I think I'll stick with Magicka
