I'm gonna be honest here, I just used to watch your content to just check for new indie games for me to support, but considering your review of Mech Engineer I'm really starting to like you as a content creator as well Splatter, Thanks alot for giving this game a second chance and to take the time to explain some of it features. Keep up the good work!
I remember when the demo for this game came out and got completely lost. I hoped that someone would make a video who can figure this out, and explain in a way the people will understand. Great job, hope to see a stream as well.
@@ztmackin Sounds cool, but it would kind of suck if they could only use Castles the whole time because they hated the tornado mechanic. Hopefully the devs will include a bunch of difficulty sliders including "Tornado Frequency" that goes to zero. It's easy to impliment and it'll get them at least one more sale!
Are they tornados? I was thinking they were a different type of bug that swarms in a tornado motion. Makes more sense. But maybe they spell out specifically that that is a tornado in the game docs or in the tutorial or something. IDK. But even then, if it helps, you may be able to just think about it as if it were a bug. I was wondering why would the mechs shoot at the tornado? Why would it chase them if not a different type of bug.
@@lucidnonsense942 Eh, I don't mean to sound harsh, but I kind of don't care what they are 'meant' to be, they look ridiculous. They look like an artificial and immature way to create 'environmental hazards' for the player. They look very, very out of place in this otherwise serious-toned game.
@@mikep8071 I don't really like them much after playing. However, the developer did tone them down a little bit, as they are not heat seeking missiles anymore. Now they tend to be near the mechs but pick a vector and stick with it until off screen.
@@mikep8071 considering the fact that the tornadoes would consist of a bunch of bugs that are viciously swarming in a continuous fashion, perfectly in order to create a tornado... you would have to say that the bugs have some awareness of the surroundings and would eventually move to the next part... where they haven't been to instead of just roaming around the same spot.... the mechanic is so questionable and artificial it is hard to put a natural looking label on it. the point is the tornadoes are a game mechanic that is implemented into the game on purpose by the dev. I would literally be more ok with it being a fucking looney toon taz that is the tornado ok. that is way better. taz is teleported through a portal made by doctor strange because thanos had his balls in a vice and really needed a taz tornado at that location with utmost artificial implementation.
could the "disobeying orders" be due to you issuing the command to move and them having to say no due to staying put being the best way to deal with the numbers, and thus they "disobeyed" for X seconds because they couldn't comply until Y seconds?
"This is all your fault. You don't have to" at the repairs explanation clicking made me laugh. Thank you for explaining this game so entertainingly yet informatively.
This is the kind of game that reinforces to me that there are folks out there who's minds work a lot different than mine. This looks way more like work than fun. I'm glad you play these games so I don't have to.
@@Tsuchimursu sounds like a terrible game design and an obvious oversight. people play games to have fun not have a second job. having no tutorial or direction to help with playing the game would result in a quick refund and not recommended.
@@Jin-1337 Sucks to suck, maybe try not sucking? Game is fine as is cause it definitely gets that management feel greatly, I don't know what kinda crap you people would call a game
I imagine the self destruct mode would do very well with lots of Evasion module and melee using mechs. This way they would charge in and fight, then explode when critically damaged. Idk if it's worth it tho
Wow, this was a lot to take in. I applaud both your efforts for making this video and the Dev's for making this game the way it is. If the cliff of difficulty progression is real, I think the joy and pride from the immersion you get passed that point is incredible.
Wow, making the player an AI is such a good fucking idea, it explains any future large amount of skill from the player, often times with quick saves and meta knowledge, no npc is capable of permanently defeating the main character except for plot reasons, if a player wants to do something, either if it’s with mods or quick thinking, it’s going to happen, and if you set up an ai who basically can and effectively does run multiple simulations of attempting to solve the problem of getting the planet back, for an infinite amount of time, eventually it should be capable of succeeding in its mission
Speaking of mechs, you should check out an older game called Engine of War which is a top down game where you have to design the power circuits for your mech and can make all kinds of slick complicated automation, like lasers that automatically reduce power when the capacitor gets low, etc. But its all up to you and your circuit design. Its a classic Splatty type game, though.
@@rizzy11111 it was only sold through the guy's website. His name was Michael Todd, he still has videos for the game on his youtube channel. EDIT: His website was called Akith Games. Its not around anymore, but the free/shareware version may still be available somewhere on the net. It may need an XP virtual machine to run properly too, so more hassle than I was thinking originally. But it was such a cool concept, so ahead of its time. It was hilarious too, youd be killing enemies in your mech saving cash for that sweet new resistor or whatever you need to make a passive shield charging circuit kick in when you arent shooting EDIT 2: he apparently was also the guy who made Electronic Super Joy, i did not know that before my recent googling.
This game reminds me of an old mid nineties game called Cyberstorm: Corporate Wars. A game with a HUGE learning curve. I've always wanted a remake of that game, but it never came. This may be the closest I've ever seen tho.
This unlocked a core memory of mine, my mom bought me this game called Front Mission 2089 for the DS that I absolutely HATED because I could not wrap my head around it’s mechanics but played anyway. But looking back now I actually miss it and how intuitive it was. Maybe it’s just nostalgia but I’m thinking of getting this game to fill that void!
Awesome game. Tried the demo, as you said it is overwhelming at first, UI wise, but it gets fun finding out what's what. Thank you for the discovery SplatterCat!
@SplatterCatGaming, if you don't want to suffer from tornadoes snatching your mech, use Caste mech - it is too massive to be moved by tornado. And it has 12 guns.
I bought this on Steam during a sale and ended up refunding it because I was too overwhelmed by the interface. I REALLY wish that this video had dropped before I refunded because it helped me understand wtf I was looking at and also looks very interesting as a result lol.
When Splat had been explaining I thought it sounded like the original XCOM games mixed with any of the mech games. Looks like a few other people did too. I've wanted something like this since playing the original XCOM games. It would be nice to see some of those improvements, but it also looks fun the way it is now, just harder.
@@Riftweaver1981 well the map feels a little like it. also the cold none hand holdy way it just gives you things and expects you to figure out what to do with it. I remember learning the hard way, that your troops need extra ammo to reload their guns. that big guns looked fun, but where not so useful. that having a full squad didn't mean victory. I could watch them run down the ramp and die one after the other. the base needing to be built in a specific way the game does not tell you, feels very much like the old game. so it feels similar, but not really the same. I don't know why you didn't get any of that out of the game, but more than a few of us picked up.
You should try Front Mission for the SNES. There's no base building but you have a squad of customizable mechs. It plays like a campaign, you do one misson to the next and recruit new members to your squad. At many cities that you passed through you can buy new components, mech frames, and cage fight for money. It's kinda like Freelancer (2003) in it's story telling style. The combat is turn based with seperate limbs damage system. The combat and visual is very good imo, especially for a SNES game.
@@Riftweaver1981 a lot of what Wolff said. I played Apocalypse the most and it's been at least a decade since I've played. So I could be remembering some things wrong. But being able to train a limited number of characters at the same time. Losing a highly valuable character due to a stupid mistake. Losing equipment due to a stupid mistake. Having to manage stress of characters or they freak out and stop listening. Character pool management. Missing a menu because it looked like a decorative part of the UI. Reminiscing is making me want to bust out the old XCOM games again.
Glad you make videos like this now and then. True indie development! I really like that weapon test screen at 9:00. ∆V: Rings of Saturn has something similar. Hope more games do that too-show don't tell "+10% armor piercing."

Just bought the game myself! The missiles are actually guided, so they are hittiles regardless, might be better to have them faster firing and more damage :P This video really helped me through a rough spot though: I didn't understand how to start a reactor, until I just simply saw SplatterCat drop the reactor onto the mech table.. Since you can literally adjust every component.. I'm going to be busy figuring out all these settings :o The temperature and cooling mechanic is a bit beyond me at the moment though.

I am in disbelief as to gow you came to your initial decesion about the game i couldnt believe how advance he made this game wowowow i want it and i will have it
This game seams neat. I would like a small playthrough of it!
