Это вирус, а не игра. Данная программа майнит на ресурсах вашего компьютера! Вы заплатите за электоэнергию намного больше, чем те гроши, что Вам, возможно, "посчастливится" заработать на выпавших непродаваемых предметах.

A free and short demo of a colony game in a colorful art style.

This demo version of the game shows the capabilities of the template for the Unity game engine. This is just a preview of that asset, so not a full game in itself. And the author of the game himself indicates this in the description of the game.

Plot:
This is a pretty cool and simple simulator of the creation and development of a settlement colony.
A lot of players might enjoy a game like this if this game is eventually finished and polished.

[+] Advantages:
  • It's free!
  • Simple and quite detailed art style.
  • Convenient control in the game.
  • Easy to understand the mechanics of the game.

[-] Disadvantages:
  • The game has some bugs. A lot is left unfinished. For example:
    - Oil well does not pump oil under any conditions as well as water pump and mine.
    - Your workers stop working and refuse to do anything at a point even though they have 100% on health food and happiness.
    - If you build a mine of any kind its completely broken your workers will build and act like they are harvisting but you never get anything out of the mine or oil rig.
    - Colonists frequently glitch on buildings, just standing there, unmovable, blinkety-twisting and turning, doing nothing.
    - It is useless to create weapons in this game, because they are not used.
    - Towers don't shoot.
  • No music or sound effects besides the GUI.
  • The exit button doesn't exist.
  • Permanent micromanagement of colonists.
  • There is no goal in the game, just survive and that's it.
  • English only. However, it is possible to understand the general meaning without knowing English.

Conclusions:
This game has good potential, but currently it's just a demo with a lot of bugs.

Don't expect too much from this and don't expect a full game. As the author promises, this is just a demo version.
But some players may enjoy spending an hour or so here.
If it's free, why not?

This demo version of the game was released a long time ago and the developer has not yet released a normally working update. Therefore, there is no longer much hope that a full-fledged high-quality game will eventually be born.

Overall, I had fun playing the game for about a couple of hours. If an update and a full game comes out, then I will be glad to play it.

A fusion of card-based programming, 2D puzzle and roguelikes. Turn-Based Combat

The game is not as simple as it looks at first glance. To win the last levels, you will have to keep in mind many combinations of moves and think over your strategy many steps forward. This is a kind of chess, only with robots on planets in space.

[+] Advantages:
  • The game trains memory, logic and teaches tactical and strategic thinking.
  • Everything is pretty polished, but I would like to add a few things.
  • For early access, the game works very well. I got addicted and played with interest for dozens of hours without finding bugs.
  • Good replay value.
  • The developer is sociable and listens to player feedback.
  • Nice atmosphere of robots and space.
  • The music and sounds are well chosen and allow you to dive deeper into the atmosphere of the game.

[-] Disadvantages:
  • If you are not a fan of card-based programming, this game may be too monotonous and less interesting for you.
  • Lots of random action. Not everyone loves it.
  • Lack of knowledge about the world around and the goals of our battles. I would like to dive deeper into the atmosphere of space and robots.
  • There is no tutorial or examples of victory tactics. You have to experiment a lot of times and die constantly.
  • English only. Without knowing English, you can play, but it will take you much more time to understand the features and capabilities of the game.
  • Perhaps for beginners in this genre, this game will seem difficult. You have to think a lot. But for many, this is the advantage of the game.

What can be added and made better:
  • Adding a tutorial.
  • Support for translation into various languages.
  • Adding lore to the game for a deeper immersion in this atmosphere.
  • Also, besides the text, I want to see some pictures and graphics. For example, such pictures can be inserted between levels. And different pictures as a result of victory or defeat.
  • Adding options for battles and weapons. For example, it would be interesting to shoot in different ways and add the option of planting bombs.
  • Adding a variant of the game, like in chess, the game against the clock. So that there is no opportunity to think over your move for a very long time.
  • Add variety to maps.
    First, it would be great if the appearance and color of the maps could be changed.
    Secondly, I suggest adding special cells on the map. For example:
    a) Cells with impassable mountains. You need to bypass or blow them up.
    b) Mines, which can be left by both us and the opponents.
    c) Cells of the map with lakes. It is possible to walk on them, but something gets worse. Robots rust from water.
    d) In this case, it is possible to create levels with a wider scale of maps.
  • Adding a table of comparison of players. For example, it is possible to compare statistics, who in what number of moves or time passed a company with difficult levels.
  • Adding a variant of the game against other players. And also the addition of joint play in one team.

Conclusions:
It is a seemingly simple game that has a lot of depth and complexity, like in chess.
The game will appeal to those who like to think strategically and tactically, 2D puzzles, turn-based battles using card programming while controlling robots on distant space planets.

It was even interesting for me to play the game in beta and early access for a hundred hours, and I will definitely return to this game.

It is possible to significantly diversify the game with additional content. And the developer promises to continue improving the game for at least another year.
So this game is fun to play now, and it could get even better in the future.

Free short IDLE game with RPG elements and turn-based strategy with pixel-style graphics.

Although the game seems very simple at first glance, it is clear that the author spent a lot of time and effort in it.
If you go deeper, you can get stuck in this game for a long time!

Plot:
A cute game about crafting, upgrading stats and facing new enemies along the way to the dark castle.
The main part of the game is not very big. Suitable for a few evenings.
There are paid extension packs. It is possible to play without them. They add small extensions and improvements to the game (such as additional buildings) and also improve the viewing of statistics.

[+] Advantages:
  • Free!
  • The game is clear and easy to learn. Everywhere there is a description with tips!
  • Simple and interesting adventure with a bit of humor.
  • A large number of plot inserts, stages and locations, each of which is accompanied by a text with a description and a video plot. If you wish, you can skip all this.
  • Achievements are present. Ten cute pixel art.

[-] Disadvantages:
  • English only. However, it is possible to understand the general meaning without knowing English.
  • Sometimes there are typos and bugs. The author of the game is trying to fix this as he finds it.
  • For some players, it may seem that the company is not long and there could be more locations. However, if the community of players expands, the author may release updates and extensions.

Conclusions:
If you like IDLE games, pixel art and knights, pay attention to this RPG, it's fun and free, looks good and is easy to learn.
Your character is fighting, you are resting.

A local multiplayer competitive PvP game in a retro 80s style.

A niche little game for those who like to have fun in competition with their friends.
Competitive arcade, 2D top-down shooter and bullet hell in space.
Old school minimalist pixel art with retro 80s style.
Game motto: "Beat your friends, get money, buy better weapons, beat them more!"

[+] Advantages:
  1. The opportunity to have fun with friends if they also love competitions and similar style of games.

  2. The retro style of the game will allow you to plunge into the past, in the 80s.

  3. Lots of game options and modes.

  4. Multiplayer game mode: this is the essence of the main fun of the game.

  5. It is possible to play without a joystick, using the keyboard. (Up to two players).

  6. It is possible to play the joystick.

  7. There is training before the start of the game. There is also a guide to the game on the Steam forum.

  8. The game takes up little space on the hard drive and is undemanding to the resources of the computer and video card.

  9. The developer supports develop games and answers questions from users in the forum.

  10. The game is currently free!
    However, the author of the game in May 2021 released the news that the game would soon become paid. However, then this news was removed, and the game remained free.

[-] Disadvantages:
  1. If you do not like retro style, pixel graphics and minimalism of games of the 80s, then this game is not for you.

  2. Single player mode: Playing alone is not very interesting. It is also quite difficult to launch single player mode. It is much more fun to play the multiplayer mode (For two or three players).

  3. Multiplayer game mode: only up to three players.

  4. There is no translation of the game into languages ​​other than English. But there is little text and everything can be understood intuitively.

  5. There is no way to reconfigure the control buttons. Although, by default, the control buttons are set quite conveniently.

  6. Works only in Windows OS.

  7. After a while, the game can get boring.
    But the game is worth the money to have fun with friends.

  8. It would be great to add the ability to play with players via the Internet.

  9. Unfortunately, there are no global statistics and player points table.

  10. The game developer behaves in an unpredictable and strange manner.
    For example:
    a) In May 2021, the game's author released the news that the game will soon be paid. This created a lot of hype and publicity for the game. But soon this news was removed, and the game remained free.
    b) On the game forum, the author sometimes makes notes about the fact that he allegedly accidentally deleted the game and now the game does not work. Then he writes that it was a joke. Then he can delete his notes.
    c) At first, there were achievements in the game. After users asked for clarification on how to get some achievements, the author of the game completely removed all achievements. At the same time, the author of the game released the news that he removed only one achievement, and not all achievements at once.

Conclusions:
This game may interest you if you like to compete with your friends and appreciate the retro atmosphere, pixel art, minimalism and simplicity of 80s games.
The game has enough different game options and modes to captivate you for several hours.

There is still room for improvement and development in the game. The developer continues to work on the game and listens to the community.
Over time, the game can get better and more interesting. However, the game may become paid. The developer has already made the news that the game will become paid, but then changed his mind and deleted this information.
For a free game, the game is good. Among the paid games, the game has a large number of competitors.
If the game becomes paid and at the same time remains at this level of development, then I would advise you to take a closer look at other similar games.

Authentic small two-color point-and-click adventure game in retro 80s style.


This game can be a real gem for you if you value minimalism and retro atmosphere with a non-linear sci-fi adventure with less graphics and more story.

The game stimulates the imagination just like the old 80s text adventure games that were made before.
And at the same time, the game provides a welcome relief from the giant wall of text typical of older games in this genre.

Plot:
The story is interesting and non-linear. The player finds himself at the center of the conspiracy of the resistance movement and he has to save the universe.

[+] Advantages:
  1. Its simplicity of controls. The functionality is logical.
  2. Deep and non-linear plot.
  3. Fun puzzles.
  4. Decent soundtrack and ambient sounds.
  5. The developer replies in the forum, listens to community feedback, and regularly releases fixes and additions.
  6. Works on Linux machines.
  7. SpaceNET is GPL licensed! That is, the author transfers the software into the public domain.

[-] Disadvantages:
  1. There is no translation from English. But, fortunately, it is possible to understand the story.
  2. Sometimes there are minor spelling mistakes. But, the author gradually corrects them.
  3. There is room for improvement and additions. But for now, the game has little fame and community.

Conclusions:
Great niche game. Simplified graphics to help you immerse yourself in the atmosphere of the game. The game does have some charm, and it's being improved and expanded still.
Hopefully the game will become more famous and there will be mods and options to continue the plot.

Free software that allows you to put a virtual, animated avatar instead of your image on broadcasts / streams.

The program tracks your movements, and the selected character repeats them.

You can also record, for example, a video greeting card for your friends for the holiday, if you are not a streamer.

The program is simpler than FaceRig, the characters are less sophisticated, not 3D, but the movement tracks even better.

You will need a camera and registration on the site.
If you want to change your avatar, you will also have to download a free editor from the same developer.


[+] Advantages:
  • Free!
  • The program is easy to learn and use.
  • Has a set of preset scenes. There is also a background replacement and customization of screen elements.
  • There are quite a lot of characters. (Although, it may be less than in paid similar programs).
  • Some characters have a chibi version (with a small torso and a large head).
  • Updates are still being released and the developer is supporting the game.

[-] Disadvantages:
  • There is no function to load your character.
  • After uninstalling the program, you will have a virtual camera driver on your device ... It is not deleted along with the program.
  • Supports only English.
  • If you wear glasses, then tracking your facial expressions will be worse.

A short-term sci-fi Colony Building Resource Management puzzle game

It's a causal game where you build machines on a grid-based 2.5D map, to harvest resources, and refine them into things like food, water or fuel. Which you'll need to birth colonists or launch rockets. Meanwhile, you'll have to manage pollution levels or even fight alien infestations, threatening to block off your precious building slots!
Everything is in real-time, so that you gotta stay on top of your management game!

Gameplay:
In the first seconds of the game, the game resembles rapid chess for a while, where you need to have time to place pieces (12 different machines to choose from) on a tile-based map.
The first level is completed in just a couple of minutes. Further, the levels gradually become more difficult and the time to complete them increases.

This is not so much a story about the construction of a colony, but a puzzle in which you need to arrange the details of the colony so as to balance the production and consumption of game resources and complete the game task for this planet.
The requirements are slowly getting more complicated. There is no sandbox game. (But you can create a mission and a map with the desired parameters in the map editor).
Nice visual style. Intuitive gameplay.
Music and sound effects are relaxed and, if desired, it is possible to disable it. Or download the soundtrack from the developer's website[colonialsprogramme.wordpress.com] .

The game is hard to get into, but once you get it, it can be pretty complex and challenging!

Game options:
  1. Company. They are 16 levels in the campaign, after the first 3, it will transition you to a new system with more planets.
  2. Challenges. At the moment there are 6 challenges, but most likely more will be added.
  3. Map editor. Create your own maps and challenges with whatever parameters you want.
There is a tutorial in the game. Quite a lot of text.
If you suddenly do not know English well, it will be more difficult for you.
But after repeating the tutorial several times, you can still understand everything intuitively.

The game has achievements. Also, there are a couple of achievements that act as challenges, where you have to create your own map with certain conditions. These can be quite hard and fun, so you can try them out too!

The developer continues to work on the game, so there are likely to be many more improvements and additions.
The author of the game plans to continue adding content for free.
You can visit the site of the author of the game[colonialsprogramme.wordpress.com] where it is possible to get some gifts (such as a soundtrack, map and a skin), as well as find out news[mailchi.mp] about this and subsequent games of the developer.

Advice:
  1. You can hold the 'ALT' key to check names.
  2. Hold right click to skip the ai-mimi banter if you so wish.
  3. There's a hammer in the bottom right corner, you can use it to demolish buildings.
    But, as an added challenge, it costs 100 'Inda' to use each time.
  4. You can actually access your maps through: Appdata/LocalLow/CookieLegends/Colonials Programme/Saves
  5. The author of the game is ready to answer all your questions on the Steam forum and the game website[colonialsprogramme.wordpress.com]. And he also promises to take into account the wishes of the players for further updates to the game. So feel free to communicate, questions and wishes.

Conclusions:
The game may appeal to those who like puzzles and short timed games.
Also, I can recommend the game to children, to start learning about sky-fi topics with robots and AI, as well as the basics of colonizing planets.
Especially children can enjoy the cartoon style of play with cute main characters in the face of robots and AI, who chat a lot before the start of each level.
There is no violence and shooting in the game.

For experienced base building players and serious strategy lovers, this game may seem too simple at first and where there is nothing new for them.
However, the last levels of the game can be difficult puzzles even for them.

The map editor is a definite plus for replayability.
For those who understand a lot about such games, a worthy purchase.

And the developer has many plans for the further development of the project.
It is hoped that the game will get even better over time.

A game about collecting items and finding the exit in a maze.

Here is everything you can imagine about 3D labyrinths.
A huge number of different randomly generated mazes.
Large number of scale options, difficulty setting and navigation assistance options.

Gameplay:
You need to find a way out of the 3D maze.
Each time the maze is generated differently based on the settings that you specify in the game menu.
Time game. You can compete with yourself in the speed of finding the exit.
Statistics are recorded for different variants of the scale and difficulty levels of the labyrinths.

Time for one game:
  • from tens of seconds at the easiest level.
  • up to several hours at the most difficult level.
[+] Advantages:
  1. A large number of options for settings and levels of difficulty.
  2. The maze is generated every time a new one randomly.
  3. Several different navigation assistance options are available.
  4. Additional options for complicating tasks are available in the form of the need to find and collect objects inside the maze.
  5. Different time statistics are saved for all difficulty options.
  6. Great replay value.
  7. Trains memory and logic.
  8. Control is possible with both a mouse and a keyboard.
  9. Low price.

[-] Disadvantages:
  1. If you play for a long time, then the music can get bored. I was unable to find the mute button.
  2. Despite the fact that the game has different themes for different labyrinths, if you play for a very long time, you may want more varied and better graphics.
    But in this case, the game would have cost much more.

Conclusions:
Nice little cheap game for training memory and logic.
Maybe you will like it if you are looking for some kind of game for little money to keep your brain busy for a while.
For fans of the maze theme, it will be possible to spend a lot of time here, as there is a wide variety of settings for randomly generating new labyrinths.
It can also be a game that allows you to distract yourself, relax, and take a short break from large, complex games.

Update:
After writing this game review, I started writing suggestions for improving the game to the developer.
And the developer asked me to help him. And now we began to work together on updating the game, which I hope we will finish soon.
Therefore, now you can see that the review was written by the developer.

A short-term strategy about the life and rivalry of ants.

The concept is simple and intuitive. The implementation is a bit lacking in polishing, but this game is definitely worth its little money.

Gameplay:
Your anthill is fighting for resources with a neighboring anthill.
In the end, only ants from one colony should remain on the map.

To win, you need:
  1. properly manage resources,
  2. to understand at what point in time what is better to buy, build and what technology to study.
  3. choose the best places for buildings and speed up logistics.

There is no tutorial, but since the variety of options is not too large, then after a few experiments, you yourself will understand what's what.

The game contains:
  1. three types of ants,
  2. two types of resources,
  3. three types of buildings.
  4. slightly more than ten technology options.
  5. traps.
  6. options for automatic and manual control of different settings.
  7. convenient hot keys.

Two main game modes:
  1. with a lot of initial resources.
  2. with a minimum amount of initial resources.
Length of games and willingness to replay:
  1. I have already played over a hundred matches and it is still interesting for me to return to this game sometimes.
  2. Despite the initially seemingly small variety, the game has a lot to experiment with. Just from the one in which part of the map you start and build your buildings, a lot is already changing.
  3. Average time per game: 10 minutes to an hour. Depending on the mode and style of play.
  4. If desired, it is possible to start fighting from the first minute. And if you already have enough experience, it is possible to win quickly and finish the game in 5-10 minutes.
  5. It is possible to block the creation of warrior ants. Then the game can drag on significantly. I had some games for over an hour.
    In this case, the game may have a meditative, unhurried look. And you are just enjoying your huge ant colony.

[+] Advantages:
  1. Very good low price for a real time strategy.
  2. It is possible to play many times.
  3. Everything is intuitive.
  4. Various options for the game: from very fast fights with manual control, to long meditative observation of automatic development.
  5. Music and sound effects are normal. For more than a hundred hours of playing, I am not tired of it yet. The melodies are calm and meditative.
  6. The developer answers, gives advice, listens to feedback.

[-] Disadvantages:
  1. The first few games you will most likely be beaten by artificial intelligence, since there is no tutorial and you learn from your mistakes.
  2. Get ready to be defeated by AI at first.
    Many players get frustrated and stop playing after the first couple of games. But the most interesting thing begins after you play a dozen times with different modes and game settings.
  3. The game is not very polished. If desired, there is a lot to find fault with, improve and add variety. But then the game would have cost much more.
  4. You learn some of the game's functions by chance only with time. For example, that pause is the Escape button. To remove the menu during the game, you need to right-click on it.
  5. No game mode against other players.
  6. English only. Although, even without knowing the language, it is possible to understand everything intuitively soon.
  7. No music mute button. Although, personally, I did not need this and I was not looking for this button.
  8. The maximum window magnification may not fill the entire window for some monitor resolutions.
  9. It is much easier to play when you learn the hotkeys. There are less than ten of these keys.
  10. After playing for a while, you may want to continue developing the plot and increasing the variety. But what do you want for such a small price.

Conclusions:
This little game is definitely worth its little money.
The game can be liked by those players who will not compare it with the well-known strategies and who will be happy to play it for only one or two evenings.
This can be a game that allows you to relax and take a short break from big, complex games.
The concept of the game is simple, understandable and many players will want to develop this ant theme deeper.


UPDATE:
After writing this game review, I started writing suggestions for improving the game to the developer. And the developer asked me to help him. And now we began to work together on updating the game, which I hope we will finish soon.
Therefore, now you can see that the review was written by the developer.
