Overload Reviews

I keep enjoying it!

descent but modern. Get the mod for multiplayer :D

retro bloody good

What an amazing experience, when i learnt how to control the ship proper it really went from regular shoot em ups to the oldschool doom/quake with full on spinning and blasting and just having fun, great secrets, great levels, having a really good time!

fantastic 6dof, addicting... in a good way,,,

Very fun game, classic Descent gameplay polished to the maximum. All the weapons are fun, the lighting is amazing, sound is good, level design is quite good. If I had to criticize somehting, I'd say a little more variety in the levels would be nice, the number of different textures feels lower than descent 2 and 3. Otherwise, excellent game to relax and enjoy at any difficulty level. The challenge of navigating the levels and finding the secrets is my favorite part.

I'm an old man, this is just like the old game from 1995 called DESCENT . I loved that game ,it was my first time PVP other players. this game changed my life many years ago!

Overload is just your basic Descent clone for those of you who don't know what Descent was it was a first person shooter from the days of DOS in which you pilot a gunship through a mine moving freely in three dimensions meaning you can go up down left right and forward and back without the effect of gravity essentially moving in three dimensional space as you wish. Overload follows the same basic premise as Decent moving through a mine eliminating hostile robots before destroying the reactor at the heart of the mine and running like crazy to escape the explosion along the way you rescue people and search for hidden pickups and powerups. What attracted me to Overload was the VR support it is a great game to play in VR and it is well implemented though not required as the game can be played non VR as well though i highly recommend playing in VR the style of gameplay lends itself well to VR I highly recommend this game especially if you are and old school gamer like myself and enjoyed the Descent series back in the day.

Basically what my toddler brain thought Descent 1 looked like back in the day. Perfect modern D1/D2 style game, and beautiful VR

It feels like Descent, plays like Descent, even sounds a lot like Descent. Is it a Descent clone, or "Spiritual Successor"? Don't know. But I do know I'm having too much fun to care which it is!
