Hecka fun.
Was skeptical at first. The bird's eye view. The seemingly simplistic gameplay mechanics. Once I gave it a couple hours I found this to be quite a challenging game. Appropriately rewards clever, thought-out plans. Lots of crazy things can happen in this Sci-Fi Stealth game.

Great game! Little warning, though: The late game missions get ungodly hard to the point that I think a significant percentage of them are just not possible for someone who also happens to play other games or isn't modding Heat Signature. I get that the missions that remove entire factions from the map are supposed to be hard. It's just that with concerning frequency, you get a mission where EVERY enemy has a permanent energy shield. Your options with dealing with energy shields are very limited unless you get absurdly lucky and manage to get a self-charging subverter or crashbeam.

Some of the achievements are impossible to get without a steam friend who also plays the game. That being said, I wish there were a continuation to the game; a Heat Signature 2.
