Mechajammer (formerly Copper Dreams)

Six days until the end...I hope they make it.

The game looks interesting so I'll probably ake the minimal contribution in the next days.

 

It does sound right up my alley, good to see they made it

 

I fell for the setting immediately although I hope they´ll go over their colors in their levels to clarify navigable and non-navigable areas etc. It´s all so cluttered right now! o_o

 

I absolutely love the art style and environment but the gameplay seems overly simplistic. Is it just a combat oriented game?

 

Played a demo on one of Steam Fests.
It is a mischung of everything (stealth, cover system, physics, crafting...) and in form of basic tutorial.
They didn't show much of RPG elements.

Personally, I think they bit off more than they can chew, but who knows.
If they succeed to make it good, it will be someting like isometric Immersion sim.
But I doubt it will be any good at release.

 

Yeah, the troubled development basically sealed this project's fate. In the Codex, it has been meme'd that their every updates are basically them changing their art style and assets over and over again, in addition to also changing their gameplay and UI. What came out recently, at this point, is just pretty much a shadow of its former, initial concept.

What a damn shame.

 

Might have changed the art style over and over again but I think the revisions hit the nail on the head. How badly was the gameplay butchered though?

 

I haven't actually played the demo at all, but just looking from their updates they changed the gameplay together *with* the artstyle changes. But in the last few months or so they've kinda finalized the gameplay, and from what the Codexers who do played the demo has to say, it wasn't 'butchered' per se, but more of what they initially envisioned could no longer be achieved simply because they're way past ran out of time (and perhaps, even money).

Still, apparently based on the videos above, and what Codexers has to say, long story short: there's still some hope.

 

Glad I watched that video. I've been beating my head against that intro area for the past day or two.
