![]() ![]() The system works well, but it is often difficult to tell exactly which creature you should be using fortunately, it doesn’t really matter. You switch between your three squad members with the QWE buttons, or by clicking their portraits in the bottom right. They also don’t unlock in order, which makes switching a bit of a pain as you get used to a new layout. I’m not exactly sure what unlocks these, but it is presumably the creature’s Hero level, which is affected by the quality of its gear and your Crogenitor level. Pressing a numerical button orders your creature to use a special ability, of which it can have a maximum of five. ![]() I personally found it much easier to move by holding down the left mouse button and moving the mouse to direct my creature, as this avoids excessive clicking. You left-click on the ground to move your character, and left click on an enemy or object to attack it. I can understand this when there are other people playing with you, but not when you’re playing alone.īasic gameplay is relatively simple, and is explained by a short tutorial. An annoying remnant from the co-op gameplay that remains in the single player is the inability to pause. This really serves to discourage co-operative gameplay. I’m not sure about this next bit, but it seems to me that you have to complete the level on single player before you can move on. You must complete a level before moving on to the next. As the first number in the level changes, the level becomes significantly more difficult, and the level range increases by four rather than two. They are named in the same manner as older games: rather than going 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, they follow the pattern 1-1, 1-2, 1-3, 1-4, 2-1. The first level has enemies with level 0-4, the second has levels 2-6, and so on. Each threat level has different enemy levels. Having said that, I have played the same threat level more than once, and found myself on identical maps, so perhaps I’m missing something. When you select a threat level, a map is allegedly randomly generated with the selected threat level. It does not have a certain number of levels, but rather 24 threat levels. The campaign has three difficulties, and you must complete the entire campaign to move on to the next difficulty. No manual is included with the beta, so some of the following information confuses even me, and thus may not be entirely correct. The cutscenes appear to require some knowledge of the history of the Crogenitors, which for obvious reasons nobody possesses. However, whilst the overarching backstory is intriguing, the details can be a little hard to follow. The story seems really interesting, and is told by a short cutscene that plays when you complete a new level. You are one of these Crogenitors, and together with the other survivors from your race, you must defeat the Darkspore once and for all. Apparently, in their millions of years of existence, the Crogenitors never quite got around to watching Terminator.įortunately, a few members of the ancient race survived and formed an insurgency, and created new living weapons. It’s like a robot apocalypse, but without the robots. Needless to say, this all went horribly wrong, and the mutants become self-aware, formed a hive mind and almost succeeded in destroying the Crogenitors. ![]() These were essentially genetically modified biological superweapons, created using E-DNA, an unstable substance that creates mutations in the DNA of an organism. A race known as the Crogenitors travelled and colonised the galaxy, creating sentient beings known as the Darkspore.
