Reviews for "UFO: Blackstorm shield"
This is really well made. Cool mechanics, nice looking, love the music, the resource management works well, I could see this being a full fledged game at some point. It's a bit overwhelming at times, but a great time non the less.
Autopause is evil, autopause when you're in the menu is even worse.
great difficult game.
i love the multi-management and the strategy involved.
although one thing i do have to say is the shields should be able to block ship crashes, just because there's so many mini ships that even if they did shield damage it'd be easy to die because the rate they spawn at drains your health extremely easily and it makes the factory and mother ships extremely annoying to deal with.
Using the weapon upgrades is just no where near responsive enough. It kept giving it to the shields instead of the weapon I desperately needed, which ended up in a very frustrating game over. The responsiveness of certain mechanics really needs to be fixed, I would suggest by making certain things activated through shortcut keys like CVB.
