Perfect next part of this series. Moving from top down to side was right idea. More of a puzzle now which is perfect. If U r fan of Creepers - just buy and play.

I dont usually do reviews, but I have been a fan of Knuckle Cracker games ever since i saw Particle Fleet Emergence before i had a decent PC. I CANNOT recommend this entire series enough. All of the solo developers' games are fantastic, and i was looking forward to the release of this one ever since its steam page was available. He has managed to keep all of his games within the same universe. IXE is like a perfect mix of creeper world 2 & Particle Fleet Emergence. Basically, blue-ish sentient goo is controlled by an alien race focused on universal domination, and you [the commander] lead a fleet of recovered vessels from failed expeditions, along with lore of the lost civilization, to eradicate the goo and save the multiple universes. The entire series is clearly a passion project, and Knuckle Kracker has done so well on ALL of them. My favorite series, and 6 OUT OF 5 RATING. If you enjoy IXE, PLEASE consider checking out the rest of his projects, especially Particle Fleet Emergence.

It's like he took all the parts people liked most about the previous creeper world games and put it into one game. Still a little slow paced but a lot of fun for fans of the series.

First playthrough is just fine, at the second the mechanics were unforgetable. If you've been a fan of the series play it and support the developer but dont expect anything groundbreaking.

I liked Creeper World 3, but others in the series didn't interest me. This one's grabbed me again though. In some ways it's "More of the same" with slight variations, but that's not a bad thing for me.
Instead of a command center, you have a capital ship. Other ship types are basically turrets. You move them around, and your capital ship sends packets to construct them and supply them with ammo, but you do need to think about supply lanes to the flagship a bit as well.
You can dig in this game but you can only place back temporary barriers, so you do have to be somewhat careful about what channels you open up for the creeper as well. Each level's had me thinking a bit about which way I want to attack from, which strategies and so forth, yet it's still the "chill strategy" I liked from CW3 without time limits. Other differences include gravity affecting fluid flow and compression, and dealing with things like sand, and the ability to mix certain reagents for various effects - such as acid to eat through metal.
If you like strategy but prefer it to be chill and relaxing compared to what you'd normally expect from strategy, if you like turtling and slowly considering how to move and expand, I recommend this game.

It could be argued that all the Creeper World entries are puzzle games in disguise, but IXE makes this so readily apparent that it takes away any sense of agency. Once you discover the right order of things to click, the level is over, even if it takes 30 minutes to sit through.
The physics/dust elements feel secondary and poorly integrated with the rest of the game play: if you weren't forced to use them to defeat specific obstacles you'd probably never interact with it.
As a longtime Creeper World fan, I'd say that you could get away with not playing this one. (Play the others they are amazing!)

Played creeper world sine I was kid, was unsure about this one for months but my partner got it for me as an anniversary gift.
I love it. it's a unique take on creeper gameplay and i love that the story is another civilization that got to advance much farther in space than CW4, it seems this one has had the rift tech for a few centuries before, but this also makes me wonder if the creep allows different kinds of progress in technology before going to war as they lived along side the creep and even talked about diplomacy or at least existing close enough for the people to study it without reaction.

Easily my favourite puzzle game. It plays great, and you're often allowed to iterate your solutions on the go. There's almost always a fair few ways to get really good results. It plays great, and it looks absolutely stunning. Great game.

Really disappointing addition to the creeper world series, all of the worst bits of the previous games with a terrible soil mechanic
