MOOOLAHHH!!! roll in. 7aa9394dea Title: Vostok Inc.Genre: Action, Casual, IndieDeveloper:Nosebleed InteractivePublisher:BadLand PublishingRelease Date: 26 Jul, 2017 Vostok Inc. Addons Edit Januar 27th 2018: The developer has asked me to update this review as they have fixed some of the issues I've listed. I am not going to alter what I originally wrote as that stands as a review of the product I played at the time.They seem to be continuing to work on the game so I recommend checking if the issues I have listed have already been fixed before making a desicion on buying the game.The dev said they have implemented key bindings which will go a long way to elliviate the biggest issue I had with the game.if any more updates are made you might find info from the comment section of this review where the developer has been posting a bit.I also ran into another issue with the game where if you full screen the game on a 16:10 resolution it breaks the UI, this has not yet been fixed as of this writing according to the devloper and it is not "top priority" to fix it. This was a game breaking bug for me as I was unable to revert the change after it was done.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------This is a first impressions review after having played the game a few hours.My experience with the game is a bit mixed. Its a fun little incremental game about watching number grow as you explore the galaxy and build up production buildings on the planets you find. You fly around in a ship which you can upgrade as you fight a never ending onslaught of enemies.While the core game play loop is great this game has a SEVERE case of console port going on. * There are no graphics options.* You can't change resoltion (all you can do is ALT+Enter to enable windowed)* You can't use multiple saves* The menues are a mess* The controls are nonsenseical and can't be rebound.It's painfully obvious that the entire game has been made to be played with a controller and ZERO thought went into porting it over to keyboard. Playing dual joystick shooters on mouse\/keyboard was never great, but it has never been this bad either.There is no mouse support, swapping weapons can only be done with IJKL, forcing you to move your hands to a random place on the keyboard, boost is set to RIGHT shift; a button I haven't clicked for a game ever before. Swapping between tabs in the menus uses Shift and Control, something I had to ask the forums to find out.The game also have some issues with turning on and off controllers while the game is on, so if you run into that I recommend restarting the game.All of these problems should be trivial to fix with a patch, but until that happens I recommend getting this game ONLY if you play with a controller and you don't mind the lack of a proper options menu.It's a real shame that developers treat the PC platform like this. If you really have no clue how a PC game should be designed, why not consult someone who does before you release the game?. A very addictive and entertaining game that has kept me up for past few nights now. I have been playing with speedpad\/keyboard very comfortably and the game delivers exactlywhat it advertisesI love how you can mix\/match weapons into different combinations though wasnt expecting lazer unicorn stampede =D+1 for all the corny antics and humorous dialogeThe only oddity imo is the "menu system"..enter..or r-shift or shift then enter?...other then that Im having a fun time playing.. ty-. Fantastically addicting. Best game to have minimized at work and reopen and play again once no one else is looking.Work Productivity: 0\/10Work Satisfaction: 10\/10. I really enjoy idle games, but this one is interesting. I saw that one of my favorite streamers was doing a sponsored stream for the game, and I thought it looked terrific at the end of the two hour time slot. He did get codes so I tried getting one of those, but in the end I had to buy it, but that's perfectly fine by me. The idle gameplay mixed with the twin stick shooter grabbed me instantly. Only issue I have with the twin stick portion of the game is that keyboard controls suck, but that can easily be fixed with a controller and a USB cable. The idle portion is relatively traditional: buy things, wait, collect money or just have all of it transfered to you instantly. Only issue I have with the buying is that buying in bulk is pretty risky that you can spend every cent in a misclick. Overall, though, I love the game. Definately worth the $15.

CONTROLS ARE HORRIBLE. Great game.. I really love this game but there is on massive problem when ever i am using the mouse to attack the game randomly locks up and only lets me fire in 2 or 4 directions i don't know why it happens but i still do recommend play this game as it is very fun. This game forces you into a ridiculous controll scheme where you can't even change the controlls properly. it has no mouse support whatsoever in the menu's wich is a disgrace, it has no windowed\/resolution options no graphical options and the tutorial guy wont shut the everloving \u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665 up all the wile you're trying to get to the \u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665ing pause menu to fix it only to have the game \u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665up remapping the poorly thought out controls for twenty \u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665ing minutes! there isn't even an options menu on the main "menu" about the game itself, who \u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665ing knows wether it's good. the accessibility is so low you cant even get to it without either dropping 60 buckaroo's on a controller or giving up any hopes for an intuitive controll scheme.Would not reccommend this\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665 NEW PATCH - 1.02 "Zip it Jimmy!" Now live.: Fixed a bug where buying multiple buildings at once would not tally correctly which meant Liquid processor and atmosphere plant didn’t unlock correctly. Fixed a bug where buying multiple buildings at once would not tally correctly meaning cross building bonuses weren’t correct. Fixed Objectives 525, 526 and 527 not unlocking. Fixed currency out of range bug that would break the game when the player had a high enough income. Fixed a bug where the unlock criteria for unlocking Casinos was referencing the wrong weapon. Fixed a turret in Vent not damaging player. Fixed a bug where some objectives that had been completed weren’t showing correctly. It’s possible to shut Jimmy up, from the settings menu. Jimmy’s call frequency dialed down from every 30 seconds to every 90 seconds. Added the ability to adjust the volume of voices individually. Added more lines for Jimmy so he doesn’t repeat himself as often (Limited to English). Added effect to manager indicator to make it more obvious when they spawn. Now when the the player flies over a dead exec they are removed from the radar. Halved executive consumption, meaning they take twice the time to consume items. Added a cool video glitch effect to changing solar system in the galactic map. After level 20 enemies do incrementally more damage to the player. Marauder (miniboss) enemy increased loot drop Tweaked the time between groupings of enemies so things are a little less hectic. Late game economy smoothed out. Buildings after the School are now cheaper to buy or give greater returns. The targeting computer toggle state is now saved into the player profile. Arrow keys used to scroll stats and tutorial log (set as right stick). Various other small tweaks and fixes.Keyboard rebinding is done (pending localisation and testing) and will be patched as soon as it's tested and localised.. Keyboard remapping patch live now!: Patch 1.03Fixed some objectives that locked after the last patch.Fixed "completed all objectives" scene triggering wrongly.Fixed a bug where survival below 25% health objectives weren’t behaving correctly.[PC] Implemented keyboard remapping on..
