This game isn't bad. It's not bad, but it really isn't good either, that's the issue. This looks and feels like a 2001 shareware game. It's incredibly generic, has very little interesting content is any.
It plays alright. It's a top-down arena shooter, very arcady gameplay. The weapons aren't very satisfying, the enemies are boring, there's way too much going on the screen, and the visual hierarchy is horrible. You never know where the enemies are, where the bullets hide under the fire and debris and flashes and everything.
For a dollar or 2 I might've given a weak recommendation, but this game isn,t worth it's price. It may not even be worth your time unless you're itching for one more generic top-down space shooter.. I'm confused. Heckabomb is a funny game, and contains all the good elements of the arcade games of the genre.
The visuals are not impressive, but they are nice. And the soundtrack is really nice.
But that's just it, the game boils down to two types of levels. Collect resources from asteroids and fight against enemy waves.
Unfortunately become annoying and repetitive, without great sense of progression or continuity.. The 2D space shooter has a long arcade pedigree, going right back to Asteroids. Heckabomb is clearly a proud descendant of that line, but is rather too arcade-like for a modern PC game.
It may seem odd to chastise a game obviously trying to be arcade-like for succeeding too much at it, but some of the throwback elements of the game are clearly retrograde steps. For instance, Heckabomb puts a lot of emphasis on a numerical score, giving it pride of place at the top of the screen, and rewarding certain in-game feats with score bonuses. Most gamers in my own circle, these days, rate their play by progress or achievements, and pay no attention at all to a numerical score -- I know that I don't even glance at high scores anymore.
Beyond a few additional play modes (Survival and the like, none of which couldn't really have been unlocked from the start) or the ability to start from a higher level Heckabomb doesn't offer any form of progress -- every game is like a fresh quarter in the machine. There's an upgrade shop (with balance issues; some upgrades are downright traps) but your upgrades are tied to your playthrough, and vanish with your destruction. This gives the game no sense of long-term reward. It's more akin to an arcade machine that offers the same experience to each new player than a modern PC game that rewards investment of time and development of skill.
Beyond the "arcadiness" issues, which, for better or worse, were clearly intentional, Heckabomb has some small problems. The balance issues with the upgrade shop have already been mentioned. More importantly though, the devs fell into a graphical trap that afflicts some space games. Game devs sometimes see pretty pictures of nebulae, and realize that space doesn't have to be a boring black starfield. Space can be colourful and interesting! So they fill their spacebackround with exciting, vibrant colour! That same excitingly coloured background, however, can camouflage enemy shots that you would like to avoid, unless the graphics are carefully managed to prevent this problem. Heckabomb does not succeed at avoiding the problem, and, in the chaos of lots of shooting enemies on-screen at a time, certain types of enemy fire can be completely lost against the background.
There is a good deal of polish in Heckabomb. but its flaws and odd throwback mentality make it a poor choice compared to a more contemporary take on the same style of gameplay, such as Space Pirates and Zombies.. Asteroids and Geometry Wars fans would like this: a twin-stick shooter that is fun in bursts. An inexpensive and solid game!. Heckagame!
Buy now you know it is about cracking asteroids.
If you thought"That looks fun!"
when you saw the screenshot
then you will not be disapointed
If you witnessed the birth of video games
the nostalgia is strong with this one.
Warning:
Some hypnotic and blinding effects
which programmed me
to immediately
recommend to you
after playing only once.
OBEY. CONSUME.
AND
AVOID
PANIC SHOPPING.. An OK game. Controls seem a bit clunky. I'd be willing to bet that a controller would be perfect for this title.
If it can get it low-cost, do it. Lots of casual fun. Not a perfect title to be sure. Lots of annoying design issues like not being able to re-choose upgrades and an odd save system. (on levels 11,21,31) But for the $2 or whatever it was worth it.
