Reviews for DarkBase: Alien RTS

Missing something

I've been a fan the originals cudos on inspiration from Rick Gush. Game History following Brood Wars for RTS it kinda got monotonous with micro management. If you can set a rally point on a unit then the game takes on new life. Even a queue of 50 relieves this stressor; effectively taking the battle off the base into battlefield.

Little tip from an old beta tester (WC the first if you must know) if you can think of any way to get rid of micro management in a RTS the player can focus on were the real action is. Trust me... Travian & 9 empires gets old.

So longer queue & rally on group & possibly expansionist flag of resources to have the workers move shop. Anything to alleviate micromanagment and you'll get my 5/10 on the next go.

Very Creative!!!!

Sweet game you guys made. Although, I think you should change the unit icons. You know make it more clearer to see.

Some tips

I feel like there's huge potential in this. Flash really needs a good RTS.

However, one major issue with the game is it's presentation. It needs to be more concrete, cartoony even with clear outlines of the units. Otherwise it's really hard to concentrate on a bunch of pixel during multi-unit battles.

Not being negative or anything, the game is really good. But a slight upgrade of the visuals would have a HUGE impact on the overall experience.

Xplored responds:

Good input. We always work with prerendered 3D models but most probably on RTS is better to do a clear stylish cartoon graphic. Let's see for the next RTS :D
