About This Game What Is Minimized? This first-person shooter with gameplay in the style of the 90s. In the game you will have to wait a huge variety of weapons and enemies, and super-fast gameplay!My name is Vandal. More precisely - it's my nickname. Present, my name no one knows. I am a professional hacker. Hacker is whom everyone called "white hat". My goal was to find "holes" in the different systems and their elimination. But once - I was able to break the system. Not a conventional system, but a reality. As if some programmer wrote our world, and I found a bug in it. And no one would have thought that my life suddenly changed, and I'm stuck in an unknown world to me.Game features: The graphics in the style of minimalism; A huge number of different weapons and enemies; Dynamic Chiptune and Nintendocore; Fast and dynamic gameplay in old school style b4d347fde0 Title: MinimizedGenre: Action, IndieDeveloper:Crystal Box TeamPublisher:Dagestan TechnologyRelease Date: 16 Sep, 2016 Minimized Download For Pc [full Version] Not the best but I've seen worse, much worse.The graphics is very plain, not much detail went into it, but the game is playable with it, it has a very retro feel and style to it.The sounds and music goes along great with the game so you have that going for you.Gameplay itself is a issue, you cant aim at all, you can merely aim to the sides and you move forward in the levels, this does make the controls quite awkward and unfavorable. It doesn't make the game harder, it takes getting used to, what it does is makes the game less fun, weird gameplay controls are never fun.It's one of those old school FPS types of games, Like old School Doom, so you will have some form of nostalgia appear if you were a gamer back then, some gamers might love this littler game whilst others will hate it.. Well this is a very flawed game. First of it's not very hard due to way to many health kits and low damging enemies. It's very repetitive, you'll be shooting the same unispiring green robots on the same looking cyan corridors over and over again. One thing I simply cannot understand is that all the weapons (also very similar to each other) use the same kind of ammo, but when you collect ammo boxes it only loads the current gun, not your ammo pool. Wouldn't it be better if each gun had it's own ammo?Finally the game whants you to collect a certain amount of energy to complete it, but it never gives you an estimate of how much is needed or how much do you have.Why am I recomending this game again?....Oh yeah, the soundtrack is surprisingaly good, with a catchy retro tune, even if it starts to get repetitive soon. I quite like the style and the colour pallete of the game, felling like a retro cyber-punk.It's also very cheap when it's on sale, and if you don't like just play it for a little while and then refund it.Or get Intrude, another retro FPS made in 2016 that's way better than this one.. Nice old school shooter. Reminds me of wolf 3d.. Yea, sure, if you like the idea of killing couches constantly staring at you.... A simple FPS made in one of those FPS maker engines that evokes the color/style of ZX Spectrum games.The biggest problem this game has is its controls. Mouselook and strafing causes things to go haywire, and in some cases the left mouse button wouldn't work, making it impossible to attack. In addition, ammo pickups only work for your currently equipped weapon, so you have to cycle through your weapons (in a fixed order, no selecting individual weapons) to fill ammo. Worst off, you have to find these gems strewn about every level and acquire 500,000 points worth to get past level 15. It's just a bunch of questionable decisions that I'm not sure who to blame: the developers, or the middleware they used to make this.Why play this when Wolfenstein 3D and Blake Stone exist? It doesn't do anything that those two games don't already do better, and those came out 20 years before this game did. I can't really recommend playing this unless you like being frustrated.Granted, I only paid $1 for this. Buy it if you're curious or you can't deny a cheap deal. But it's not some hidden gem or anything.. The idea is great...But, execution is bad.3/10. Turning with mouse is not working really well for me. You can still turn with arrow keys however there is no key assigned for firing on keyboard and there is no option to change keybindings. Implementation of reassigning keys would be really nice.Also I didn't get what colored diamonds are for.Other than that I really liked retro style and music.. I was originally a little harsher on this game before I did some digging into the game itself. I now find it quite inspiring. Minimized was developed using the "Raycaster game engine". Which is a freeware raycasting engine you can find on ModDb(and probably a few other places) IT is a very primitive game engine, but it gets the job done none the less. The fact that Minimized got this far is more than deserving of a digital high five. IT could have just as easily never gone beyond some ModDB page that 99% of the internet could not have given half a♥♥♥♥♥♥about but here it is on Steam taking money from me that could have been spent on my kids future college tuition. now on to the brass tacks.PROS: Great visual concept(if not the most flawless execution)Great soundtrack that meshs perfectly with the theme.Level design is non-linear but not a frustrating labyrinth.CONS:Sometimes you can overlook entire rooms because of the way the visuals bleed together. Other than that most faults are more the simplicity of the engine and beyond the fault of the devleper.-All weapons share the same ammo pool-there does not seem to be a way to have a melee based enemy-No AOE weapon attacks or enviromental damage.I do hope whoever is makign the raycaster game engine eventually adds in this kind of stuff and the developer Minimized patchs some cool♥♥♥♥♥♥into the game.Old school fans are the sort not to take to much notice of things that don't feed directly into the gameplay or visual aesthetic and Minimized is a compelling bare bones example of that mindset.Buy it.Buy it now.+
