i thought i wouldn't like it to be honest, but holy moly does it just grip you
Great little game. The variety of weapons, abilities, and strategies, has kept me entertained for quite a while. The difficulty ramps up nicely and the waves can really push you into that zen space of riding the line of "oh my god I'm about to die" without feeling like everything is out of your control.
One of the best games I've played in recent years. Really clean concept and execution. I would wholeheartedly recommend this game for someone whose looking for something to play for 5 minutes or for 5 hours.
Fun game developed by an awesome developer who is very dedicated to making sure the game stays updated and fresh. Lots of replayability here.
it is a really fun and well planed out game with a lot of fun combos
yeah, game's pretty fun, def needs some balance updates thought. Engeneering built is feels a little too strong compared to most other builds
An incredible little game where you experiment with builds and lose track of time due to the smooth and addicting gameplay.
Digital crack. I'm hooked. Asteroids-style movement... tons of weapon/shield customization. tons of fun.
This might be one of the best roguelite expieriences I have played in recent history. The sheer amount of customizability between weapon choice, hull choice and weapon choice, combined with the manifold options to make it synergize with upgrades picked up as you level makes Nova Drift an experience every roguelite enthousiast should experience. Once you get the hang of synergies and gameplay tactics, super mods accelerate gameplay enjoyment into fifth gear, making you truly feel like the build you've made during a run was a result of your own skill and expertise.
Very good little... twin stick shooter? Geometry wars-like? Asteroid clone? I've got a good amount of experience in this kind of game but don't really know the terminology. Shmup-adjacent stuff; you know. It reminds me a lot of one of the best flash games imo: bubble tanks 2. Good amount of mods and leveling pathways and builds. Challenging but not over the top difficult.
this game is great. i don't have anything really negative to say. any problems i encountered while playing were self inflicted. looking at you barrage and saturation fire grenades.
Super great, simple indie game, still receiving new content, and with good replayability! Super fun to learn and test new builds, to try and speed run the bosses, and to try and go for as long as possible.
This game is the perfect blend of arcade shooter and rogue-lite. The replayability factor and skill ceiling is tremendously high due to all the different customization options. The graphics are vibrant, simple, yet beautifully geometric--sophisticated and elegant. The soundtrack is an absoulte banger, each and every track is phenomenal. The sound effects are fantastic and immersive. The game has scaling challenge modes, and even a draft mode. Check it out!
Highly recommended. I had a blast going on run after run, always adding the harder difficulty settings as they became available. I beat it in 22 hours and there are a few different modes I haven't tried.
The enemies are all distinct and require different tactics with different builds. It's very satisfying to get melted by a baddie and restart and roll for the solution to the last run's problem.
And holy smokes, is it slick-looking. And sounding. Some boss fights increase the size of the screen to epic effect, with lights from dozens of projectiles creating a terrifying haze as they gather in pursuit of your little ship. You unload on a chain-linked laser critter and each segment pops like a firecracker.
Winning the final boss fight was one of the most satisfying gaming experiences I've had in a long time.
It's a great game, my go to game for simple fun stress relief. There is significant depth for those who enjoy the Rogue-like genre, but not so much that it's overwhelming to new players. 450 hours in and I still discover new builds occasionally.
Fun Roguelike, many ways to be op and very many build variety
cant wait for stuff planned along the way like mutations
Fun shoot em up. Not too difficult so you have a good time finishing the game. It's slightly too easily once you get rolling after the first quarter of the game.
Roguelike Asteroids game with very pretty graphics, a good pick-up for a game to play that doesn't require a Ph.D in braining while rewarding players for clever combinations.
I was browsing for party games (local co-op, 4 player, couch co-op, etc.) to play with friends and family over the holidays and while not a party game, this one caught my eye.
It is a truly amazing game for some good ol' fashioned casual arcade gaming. It is a modern take on Asteroids with roguelite run progression and meta progression by unlocking new elements as you play. It has been a ton of fun mixing and matching all of the perks, the controls are tight, and the visuals are mesmerizing; I am not a huge fan of electronic music, but it is pretty mellow and works with the whole vibe. Despite how busy the screen can get, I don't find myself getting lost too often. I am really looking forward to having some high score battles with my friends and family.
The only thing that could make it better is Player 2.
I'm quite the fan of this game, great premise and really wish more games did things in the rogue-lite and similar genres while making shmups fun. Especially as something that was developed for one of those gamejam or related 'make a game under specific restrictions' events. Really there's only one flaw I have but it's hard to figure out if it's due to the game, my hardware, or what exactly the problem is caused by. Every so often when I load the game up no matter what my GPU or the game itself has for settings it acts like things are 'double speed'. Originally it seemed like turning it from windowed mode to borderless seemed to help but now even that doesn't fix it. It happens at random times so I can't really control the problem. Even telling my GPU to limit games to 60 frames or anything like that seems to help. Otherwise I'd recommend this five stars for anyone who loves shmup style games with rpg ship build mechanics. Otherwise I have to give it maybe three point five out of five stars, or a low end of four stars out of five.
If there was some way to figure out this fix or what is causing it even I'd be quite happy to change my review otherwise to five stars. I say this while I've almost unlocked all the 'ranking' related items at 30 hours or so of playtime. So it's not like it's a souls-like hard game, even turning on all the challenges except the 'hardest' isn't a big deal and worth the challenge it brings with the boosts it offers. Heck even the 'final challenge' that I've unlocked is fun even if it doesn't boost anything but giving a specially marked score. But this weird 'double speed' or '1.5x' speed thing that could simply be something on my end makes it necessary to give this a less then perfect review. The reason I say this is because i've never seen a game go 'faster then normal' when having frame issues or the like, it's always gone slower then normal. Like a game going at .75 normal speed because your system can't keep up with settings. There's no way that's the problem here because I meet if not exceed any requirements for this game.
After making report of this to the developer I have to reduce this to a two out of five stars, because the developer banned me from community discussions. The game is great, but the developer needs to be removed from Steam if they're not able to take criticism that well. Something as simple as a 'frame rate lock' shouldn't be that hard to implement in a game, and making the developer aware of the issue shouldn't require you be a perfect angel to get your point across.
I call this genre of game time wasters ever since Time Wasters came out. This is another game with its own take on the genre from the inertial movement since you're in space to the fully user activated firing and single weapon system. Kind of a psychedelic art style but fun and pretty enough. I enjoyed it, worth the money.
great game, simple fast paced rouge-like, recommend for those who want to kill some time, with knowledge that updates are still to come, the game already has a wide variety of upgrades, only issue is if there are lots of stuff on the screen, the game can slow down by a noticeable amount.
What an absolute blast that game is! The first runs are sketchy to master, since the controls are not the usual, but after that, it gets pretty addictive for his simple design, but a ton of possibilities, and replayability! And what a ton of weapons and upgrades! Easy to play, but difficult to master, I recommend!
very fun and adicting. however it is a little pricey.
Being roguelike and making build interactions interesting and fun is a hard thing, but that game achieves it.
Amazing Sci-fi themed rouge-like, excellent if you love either massively satisfying ballistics or fast paced hit and run game-play. Seriously, tons of freedom in this, and did I mention endless?
If you're willing to challenge yourself, this game will treat you well. Also you will die quite a lot. Go ham.
this game is so visually pleasing, the music is fire, the gameplay is fire, i have had this game for an incredibly long time and have loved it and played it regularly. 11/10 would recommend
Pretty fun game, strangely addictive, you're not really sure what you're playing while you're playing it, only word to describe it is rougelike in its purest form.
I found it quite enjoyable. Experimenting a bit with the various ship types and combinations. I found it quite hard and kind of stressful on the mouse finger at times. I needed some time to get used to the controls.
good variety of enemies and weapons. though I have no idea why recursive mods are off by default and hidden be hind a "challenge" they add so much variety. Beat it already but I think there is still great replay here and I hope more stuff is released later.
Hmmm yes. Asteroids but its pretty and fun. A game that is worth the price. If you haven't gotten the game get it its's good,
A fun game with great visuals
Played the game only on the steam deck and although the controls feel kindda wierd at first,
and the text is a little bit too small, the game works great.
My only gripe is i wish the game had more weapons to choose from, after 20 hours i flet like i pick the same 2-3 weapons (the ones i enjoyed the most) and the builds felt kindda samey, even after unlocking everything.
Overall, the game is great
I like the arcade feel of this game and all the options for different play styles.
nice graphic design, tons of combination
This game is really heckin’ good. The Asteroids esque gameplay mixed with deeply customizable roguelike build potential pair up together to make an exceptional example of what a bullet heaven (my preferred term for the genre, one proposed by Wanderbots) can play like. Pair that with some of the best and most focused visual, audio, and gamefeel polish I’ve seen in a game, and you have a brilliant game that’s worth the asking price, even off sale.
Great fun to build different ships and try different ways of playing. Very addictive. Only negative is no mid-game pause so if you're a high scorer you should set aside at least 30-60 minutes.
NOTE: those that suffer epilepsy or are averse to flashing lights should probably avoid this game.
Nova Drift is a somewhat strange game. Having a similar game play style to the old game Asteroids, it takes the concept and adds in a rouge-lite element to mix up the game play loop and create an unique experience each play...is what I would like to say.
Game play in Nova Drift can be divided into two concepts: the actual top down shooter game play, and the rogue-lite element. The top-down shooter game play has you navigating the play area with your ship (equipped with standard HP and a shield that has a passive effect), boosting around as you blast any enemies or environment hazards. You also have the ability to phase across the edges of the screen to escape enemy bullets, though the angle you'll exit from isn't always obvious and your own bullets won't do so without an upgrade. With all that said movement sounds really good but here's where the "Drift" in the title comes in: you don't have free directional movement and must instead utilize your aiming to steer left or right to orientate yourself. while an interesting twist, I find it to be a mixed bag as you will often find yourself needing to point one direction but move another to avoid the onslaught of things approaching you which will probably cause a game over or two. Enemy variety is a bit sparse in my opinion, with something akin to 30 normal mobs (including evolved forms that do the same thing but stronger) and about 10 boss enemies with the whole set randomly being applied per level and the only real change being the raw stats. Some enemies are perfectly fine after you see their pattern or attack and some enemies can one shot you if you so happen you lose track of yourself and stand still for about 2 seconds. Overall the actual game play gets a solid approval, but there are many small issues that can compound if you aren't ready for them. And then there's the rogue-lite part.
The rogue-lite element of the game is comprised of selecting options within a menu once you hit a level up threshhold as opposed to some other rogue-lites that offer items that you pick up or at checkpoints; each of the individual selections reset per run but you can unlock more bonuses to get as you play longer. You start with a weapon modifier selection, then a shield modifier, then a ship modifier, and finally get base modifiers affecting your offenses, defenses, or speed (and other things) plus the option to switch any of the earlier modifiers out with new ones. I think this system is not bad (a lot of the modifiers are hilarious and allow for a variety of builds) but it has two major problems. Firstly because the entire thing is tied to leveling up, you will inevitably start losing gains as you continue to play the game as opposed to having a constant stream in other rogue-lites (like RoR2 which I am using as the comparison point). that in and of itself isn't a major issue until it's combined with the second point which is that there's no real way to "switch" a build once you've started; any ability to swap parts that would better suit a change in ship or weapon is tied to level ups (which you're already probably using to make yourself stronger) meaning you basically use the same thing the whole run and hope it doesn't fail. If nothing else I would like to see some alternate game mode where in buffs are gotten differently to increase variety in a single game instance rather than having to effectively start over with that knowledge and hope you get everything you need. A slightly lower issue problem is also how there's not much reason to mix builds; you will likely always go mostly offensive with some defensive stuff to make sure you don't die, or mainly defensive with barely offensive bonuses and making use of the various defensive-offense buffs. could use more variety amongst the types of offense and defense, even more than it already does.
As for closing notes, the game is visually vibrant, but enemies can share coloration with your ship (and the coloration changes so which enemy does so isn't even consistent) meaning you will occasionally lose where you are and die that way while also occasionally having a lot of things happening on screen at once. Music is...there, mostly; it isn't bad but not particularly stand out either, though I will note it does fit the situation in most cases.
Overall, I think Nova Drift is definitely fun game to binge for a couple days then try a run every few days when you want to unwind. However as a long term playing experience I think it misses its mark and isn't quite worth the asking price unless you either got everything else you want or are really into the game play style (but hey there's also a demo so try it out for yourself).
Final verdict: 6.5/10. I happen to like it, but I'm not overly obsessed over it and I don't think I'd find myself returning *that* frequently to it.
One of the most complex and varied roguelikes i've played, such an amazing soundtrack and beautiful artstyle
A very fun Bullet hell with incredible visuals with Limitless startagies and macanicis witch are easy to learn
The game is great for a quick session every once in a while.
There *seems* to be great range of possible builds, but you´ll probably stick to a few that actually work. Experimenting with new stuff can be fun, but also frustrating when you get hard-countered by the first boss or so. (Maybe that´s just a skill issue. don´t care.)
Great game, great music, great atmosphere, great everything!
Perfect game for when you don't feel like thinking too much and just drop in and do a few runs.
Nova Drift is a great blend of upgrade mechanics, simple-but-beautiful visuals, short game sessions, and addictive game-play. If you enjoy ARPGS, SHMUPS, and Rogue-likes, this is one to check out.
A great combination of roguelike play and vector-based shoot-em-up. They genuinely provided myriad tactics to embrace, from missile swarms to ram-ships. This was my Vampire Survivors before Vampire Survivors. Been in the oven for awhile and great for the "one more try" as you try and chase down an intended build.
"Nova Drift" captivates players with its seamless blend of Roguelike space shooting and Action RPG mechanics. Developed by Mechanical Swarm, this indie gem tasks you with piloting a semi-organic spaceship through the void, upgrading it with over 150 unique modules to face off against a myriad of deadly enemies.
The game's deep customization and strategic upgrading create a diverse range of game play possibilities, ensuring each run feels fresh and exciting. Fast-paced combat and relentless enemy spawns keep the tension high, while the game's vibrant art style and colorful effects add to its visual appeal.
With multiple game modes catering to various preferences, "Nova Drift" offers endless replay ability and a rewarding challenge for both casual and hardcore gamers. A must-try for fans of space adventures and Roguelike games.
Never a huge fan of roguelikes but Nova Drift made the grind smooth and engaging when others can easily get frustrating. With a smooth and gradual progression which then takes a steep dive when it matters, it manages somehow to strike a great balance between challenge and accessibility. Worth a try if you'd been apprehensive about roguelikes.
Awesome little arcade game that has a lot of fun mechanics to play with!
Great game to pass the time, even if you've unlocked every mode. There are enough combinations of playstyles to keep you busy trying something new. Visually stunning with enemy variety and bullet hell.
Nova Drift is a game I have been watching for a while now and highly recommend.
It is a game that many will be familiar with but may not be the type of game you want.
While this is not a twin stick shooter, it plays very much like asteroids with obviously significant upgrades in graphics and gameplay.
I honestly prefer to play this way and while I hope Chimeric keeps it, I can understand someone not liking it if they were expecting a twin stick shooter.
Download the demo and find out for yourself.
