About This Game Forget everything you know about first-person shooters: Void Bastards asks you to take charge, not just point your gun and fire. Your task is to lead the rag-tag Void Bastards out of the Sargasso Nebula. You make the decisions: where to go, what to do and who to fight. And then you must carry out that strategy in the face of strange and terrible enemies.On board derelict spaceships you’ll plan your mission, taking note of the ship layout, what hazards and enemies you might encounter and what terminals and other ship systems you can use to your advantage..Move carefully through the dangerous ships, searching for supplies and manipulating control systems. React to what you find - will you detour to the generator to bring the power back online or will you fight your way into the security module to disable the ship’s defenses? Choose carefully when to fight, when to run and when just to be a bastard.Use your hard won supplies to improvise tools and weapons, from the distracting robo-kitty to the horribly unstable clusterflak.Navigate your tiny escape pod through the vast nebula. Flee from void whales and pirates, and politely avoid the hungry hermits. All the while you must keep scavenging for the food, fuel, and other resources that keep you alive.Void Bastards features a 12-15 hour campaign that you can complete with an endless supply of prisoners, each with their own unique traits. When one dies, another steps forward to carry on the fight. Don’t worry though, as any crafting progress you’ve made is retained from one to another. 6d5b4406ea Title: Void BastardsGenre: Action, StrategyDeveloper:Blue ManchuPublisher:Humble BundleRelease Date: 28 May, 2019 Void Bastards Free Download Key Serial Number I had high hopes for this game but after the first hour it becomes a chore. Boarding a ship, stripping it of resources, then leaving becomes very repetitive after you notice the ship layouts are the same, there's little enemy variety, and the game only encourages one play style. The whole gimmick of the game is locking doors to cut off enemy spawn points. I wish there was more depth to the ship systems, like shutting down the power would make it harder to spot you, or controlling the security system would let you peak through cameras to spot enemies, or even controlling the oxygen would let you purge certain rooms of breathable air. If you want to ignore all this and create a run and gun game, that's fine, but the gun play is too imprecise and the unlimited supply of enemies makes securing a room feel like a waste of time. Pros:- Comic style graphics are nice- Entertaining humor Cons:- No aim down sights, gun play feels cumbersome and imprecise- Randomized hazards like oil slicks and power periodically turning off are more annoying then challenging- Loose items are too difficult to spot- There is little variety in ship layout and systems - The only ship system that matters is power- The music becomes repetitive and seems out of place. Starts a bit slow, but gets addictive really fast. The steady upgrade system allows you to delve deeper into the Nebula whenever you want, so you can take your time with the main quest and keep on pillaging the shallowish depths. The bad accuracy on the starting pistol is a bit annoying, but you get the poison pistol soon, which has better aim. Artstyle is super pretty.. This game will last you around 9-15 hours if playing on normal difficulty.Game begins to become repetitive after around 7 hours.Think of it as a sort of mixture between system shock 2 and FTL.Although, the underlying mechanics are nowhere near as complex as either. Its a more simple game with a simple concept.There is no weapon jamming,repairing,psionic attacks or drag and drop inventory system like ss2...And there is no ship to ship tactical combat and crewmates you need to micromanage like ftl....In this game you strictly focus on managing your health,food and fuel whilst gathering loot in order to upgrade your loadouts and create story items to progress.I have to also add there is a oxygen timer for each ship you dock with... But oxygen can be refilled up to a point and you can upgrade your capacity as well... As long as you play on normal difficulty it only becomes a problem under certain circumstances and its not a very pushy mechanic at all imo.Some ships i get like in total 30-40 minutes of oxygen if you count the refills and expanding via merits.. And each ship on average takes around 10 minutes to clear.Now, there ARE some ships that have depleted oxygen as a hazard. But it tells you beforehand.. Looks and controls nice, but doesn't really have any compelling gameplay. You go around a FTL-like map, dock with the same ~20 ships and pick up a bunch of junk in an FPS roguelike kind of game. You use this junk to upgrade your character across playthroughs. -bigger guns, more hp, etc.Gunplay is alright, but it doesn't feel rewarding to kill enemies, once your character gets around 1000 HP you can just run around the ship and pick everything up. Kept waiting for something interesting to happen, but every ship is more or less the same.Haven't completed the game, so something might happen lategame, but I'm not holding out any hope.. This game has some really cool stuff going for it but it's held back by some tedious elements. For example, rather than looting 20-30 spots around the ship, I'd rather loot 3-4 that actually had substantial loot in them. They could still be spread out in the far corners of the ship, and perhaps they're not marked explicitly (for example, you know that one of the chests is in the generator room but not where in the room so you have to look around a bit). It just felt tedious to loot so many drawers and boxes to be rewarded with just measly scraps of resources. Honestly this one thing could make the game 50% more fun IMO. I just don't want to click on drawers and boxes all day...Other things: the art and tone of the game is spot on. Looks great, sounds great.Specific things: I think the stun gun is too powerful for countering turrets. There's a lot of interesting gameplay to be found relating to turrets and their interactions with power and hacking etc, and I think the stun gun actually counters a lot of fun that is to be had there. And on the other hand, the kitty robot isn't good enough at drawing fire for it to be worth using. The explosion isn't isn't reliable because often it just runs into the corner and blows up away from all the enemies you were trying to kill. There's a lot of potential here but for me it's more tedious than fun in the current state.
