Review for Dark Planet

Post by marionline »

Infos
The game demo Dark Planet by the was released in 2016.
The demo is quite short, so is my review.

Plot
You're Jet, a guy who just had finished his training and now works as a member of the special division. Your first job is it to fight some Beetles in a power station. (I never found them.)

**Bravo! Great Design!**
I really liked ...
- the graphics style and tone, the maps and walkabouts
- the weapon animation was well done

**Things that could be improved:**
- the character portraits
- the music gets a bit boring after a while

Overall Impression:
The demo was fun. The game uses has rather bright tones, that creates a comic-like atmosphere. The battle animation and sprites were really well drawn. The walkabouts underline the comic-style. The only thing graphicwise that should be improved are the portrait images. Minor mistakes in regard to eye position make them look a bit odd.
The map inside consists of corridors, and a lobby.
Outside there are a lot of large houses, it makes you feel like this takes place in a capital or really large town. The houses looked nice, but one can not enter them.
I hope Ichiro finishes this. It looks like Dark Planet will be fun to play. :D
