- Story/Description:
| Quote: |
John Smith (generic name, you can choose your own) is a man in trouble. He’s lost everything he has in the Stock Market, his house is in danger of being washed away due to erosion. All he has is a life insurance policy. Depressed and despondent, he decides to end it all. Climbing to the top of his office building. A split second before he hits the ground, a wormhole opens up, and he vanishes! John awakens in a strange place. It’s clearly a high-tech world, but he can’t read any of the writing or understand the language he’s hearing. What’s going on; is he dead and in Hell?
Incognito is meant to deliver simplified versions of gameplay from different genres and bring them together into a game that's epic in scale and requires different genre skills but is easy for the average hardcore gamer to jump into and play from beginning to end.
These genres change at each "zoom level" of the game:
When you're on foot, it's a First-Person Shooter with RPG elements
When you're in your ship, it's a Space Trading/Combat Simulation
When you're in low orbit of a planet, it's a Simple Real-Time Strategy Game
When you're in your hovertank, it's a Tank Combat Game
In order to progess through each Episode, you'll have to conquer challenges at each level, gathering information on foot, exploring in your ship, landing on uninhabited planets and establishing bases, and on hostile planets, invading a planet's surface defenses in the hovertank.

I'd never even heard of this, despite it being out since May 2009... but it certainly sounds VERY interesting. Obviously not a AAA title by any means, but the premise sounds good. Reloaded just released the entire bundle (so far) of all three episodes, with Magrathean currently working on Episode 4. Each episode is $9.99 to buy.

I just checked episode 1 trailer and I can only say "What the fuck!". Seriously can't decide if this can be fun to play.

How stupid must one be to tackle multiple playstyles and genres when most devs have trouble with combining two?

Space Rangers tackles three distinct playing styles.... and does it rather well, if I might add.

Anyone tried it/intends to try it? Waiting for mini-review 
TWIN PEAKS is "something of a miracle."
"...like nothing else on television."
"a phenomenon."
"A tangled tale of sex, violence, power, junk food..."
"Like Nothing On Earth"

Installing now, since Hunted was a large plate of a horseshit with a semen dressing. I'll let you know what it's like =)

As long as the gameplay is good I couldn't care less if it looked like Pong.

Eh... not really sure how Reloaded's crack works on this. It's a single DLL plus a batch fix (for missing folders) but the game still demands a key otherwise it gets locked in demo mode.

Doh, sorry... didn't see it >_<
@Areius
Nice trolling. That's an inventory screen.
 Spoiler: | |
Just started playing and the visuals are about on-par with games like System Shock 2. It's a very budget title, no mistake about that, but it has some interesting gameplay ideals. I'm going to continue and I'll add more thoughts later.

I knew these games already, they definately looked interesting, but I've never played them. Looking forward to hearing some opinions.

I'll post up some proper impressions later, I'm busy with MK9 at the moment (Smoke baby!) but a short summary;
Visuals are poor, that much is a given, at the BEST of times they're maybe on par with System Shock 2. The audio is good, seems to sample a lot of SS2's sounds too, but the voices are... well... budget  I think the real shortcoming of the game is the space section, it just controls too strangely to be much fun - and the view angle is massively skewed which makes it a bit harder. No cockpit cam, sorry guys, and I don't recall seeing any kind of space combat either.. it's solely a vehicle to get from Planet A to Planet B and back, either trading or in search of elements. Planetside missions are pretty fun, but basic like the rest of the game; you build a small base, harvest elements, defend yourself with controllable Hover Tanks, and that's about it. FPS mode is budget, but huge - with a lot of exploration and interactivity. I can't really comment on the story yet, I've only just discovered enough elements to repair the heat shield (basically the first tutorial areas)
On the whole; Ultimately flawed, but not exactly failing either. If you like Parkan II, you'll enjoy this.
