Fan!Using science to defeat enemies? Fun!Multiple locations to explore? Fen!Amusing communications between scientists? Fon! (sounds like phone ... okay that one is a bit of a stretch)Now to end this review. Fin!. The graphics on this game are amazing. Puzzle like game play.. So, first of all: I know that I have barely played this game at all BUT I can say something about the game:+ Great visuals+ Great sound+ Great gameplay+ It's super fun+ Eddie Lee is awesome- (There is basically nothing bad I found.)Now to the point why I haven't played a lot of this game yet. The thing is, that I want to enjoy the game and not just rush it. Since I have no time at all, playing games can be hard. Really hard but I can guarantee that this game is awesome! Definitely worth a try!. Lovely little game :) Amusing dialogue and hair pulling puzzles.. sadly this game just sucks in my opinions.. Nova-111 is an excellent puzzle game with some really fun innovations to a pretty stale genre. If you like old-school 2D puzzle games like Adventures of Lolo, then this is for you. At first, Nova-111 seems like a typical turn-based puzzle game on a grid. But quickly you learn that some elements in the environment are in realtime. For example, you have to juggle turn-based enemies with realtime laser turrets. This makes for some very fun maneuvering. At first, all your ship can do is bash into enemies, but as the game progresses you gain some additional abilities like a smart bomb and a teleport gun that lets you move two squares in one turn. (And more powers that are better left a surprise.) Overall the game is not very difficult but if you want to save every scientist and find every secret area (while also minimizing your damage and number of moves) then you can make yourself a real challenge. The enemies are fun and varied with interesting patterns to memorize. Not to mention a lively sense of humor and polished art style. Recommended for puzzle lovers!. Disclaimer: I'm a personal friend of the developer and I've witness the journey Eddie and his partner Kalin have embarked on to bring this game into fruition. That said...What becomes immediately apparent from the initial stages is the interconnctedness of real time and turn base strategy that permeates throughout this game. It's a fresh and funky idea that hasn't been thoroughly explored until now. You control the Nova spaceship and transverse through space and time to unlock the mystery and the aftermath of the Great Experiment.The game plays out in a level by level fashion where you explore a 2D grid and utilize precise and timed movements complete each stage. Each stage adds a new level of complexity that enhances your toolkit as you progress forward.What I like about the game is that you can play the game in bite size pieces, squeezing in a level when you have a moment but also replay stages to unravel all of the secrets for the completionists out there. Not only that, I really appreciate how this game pays homage to the classics that preceeded it (wouldn't want to spoil anything for the avid gamer). Unsurprisingly, I'm a huge fan of Nova-111, from the conception of the game, watching it come to life through beta testing and demos and now being able to fully play through it. It's worth the time. If you are not that easily amused go to options and change the language to something you don't understand (go for Japanese for aesthetics). Now that the eyebrow raising attempts at humor are out of the way you are in for the great cerebral ride through the pleasant visuals and novel concepts.. Great mixture of turned based and realtime puzzles! Fantastic art style. Highly recommend!. Started a little bit bland, but after a few rounds I started to really like it! It's a weird kinda-turn-based game.
