OmegaBot Reviews

The game's premise is pretty cool, being that you're a robot built to save the world from a mysterious plague that turns living beings into lifeless robots. And I love pixel-based 2D platformers like these. However, despite my sincere desire to enjoy this game, several factors drag down the overall experience for me. You can only have one save file, and you cannot start a new game unless you finish the current one or delete the .sav file yourself. If you want to return to an earlier part of the game (let's say, if you missed a collectible), you cannot do that either, as there is no chapter select option. The game also gets really difficult at times. You might die a lot due to challenging platforming, bosses with tricky attack patterns, or simply due to a lack of skill. Additionally, you might encounter bugs and glitches, such as the sides of the screen freezing when performing certain actions, sprites overlapping incorrectly, rain appearing inside buildings, etc. This is coming from someone who played [i] Missing Banban [/i] (which is practically a re-skinned version of this game), so I knew what I was getting into. I got the game at a heavy discount (-92%), so it wasn't a massive loss of my time and money, but it still isn't worth $10 in my opinion. For a first game project, it isn't terrible by any means, it just didn't leave a positive impression on me after completing it twice (which, by the way, the 100% achievement didn't work for me).
