Hi there! ^_^ If you're interested in Blêktre 2081, here's my 2 cents! :3
I'm going to start with the, not so good part....
The lack of tutorial and unexplained game mechanisms make this game really brutal to new players. There were times that I grinded for hours for money, then to lose it all upon death. Not knowing what to do can really make it frustrating to play.
But Charles is constantly improving the game by listening to feedback, and reflecting updates to the game. He's in the discord and I'd recommend to pop in to ask questions or check the tips/guides regarding unlocking achievements and progression.
I think the most important thing is to figure out how to get filthy rich fast, which I won't spoil, but the guide is in discord if anyone needs! Then the game would be enjoyable knowing you can easily build your character back up!
Did I mention the game is really buggy? XD Something almost definitely breaks when Charles implements a new feature haha.
Lastly, I think this crime-themed pixel game is charming and... wow it was also secretly suggestive and a lil messed up, I got fooled by its cute look. q_ q.
But I recommend tho!
Thank you for reading, If you do giveme a go I hope that you'll have fun! :>
It's fun and not time consuming (though it can get very addictive!). I don't want to spoil anything in my review but there's a lot of stuff to discover and Charles is clearly working on more! While not too difficult, it can take some time to understand how things work (you now have a small tutorial and the Blektropedia to help you out) but that's part of the experience. Don't take death too seriously: once you know how, it's fast and easy to get back on your feet.
You will be brutally punished by for your lack of knowledge and die.
You will manage enough to get by, just to see some rich assh*le make you miserable, and probably die again.
You will make bad choices that will lead to your death.
But soon enough, things will click. You will exploit the system, know the secrets. You will become the rich assh*le and bully your way to victory.
Fixed a bug that allowed the Capo to trigger infinite migrant waves, causing the game to run out of available names and freeze the server. This only happened on the French server.Fixed a super rare bug allowing you to have 2 licences to live, causing the impossibility to equip one
Bug fixes : Antidepressants that wouldn't work for sanity checks correctly (especially for resisting advertising) fixedFixed a rare server freeze when too much migrants were allowed to enter the city Tax collector salary raised
