Early Access Review Alchemage is an extremely special game, of those games you discover one day, of those games that have no impact and that turns out to be a lost gem between this mountain of mediocrity that we have today on Steam.
A 2D Terrarium style Survival-craft/Sandbox, Starbound, Planet Centauri, Realms of Magic, MoonQuest, It Lurks Below and that long style games etc, but the truth is that Alchemage takes many good things from every game of the genre and makes them his own thanks to a mime and a Extremely careful development, a wonderful softness and ambience, a pixelart where backgrounds and other elements predominate with a dithering that makes it beautiful.
We Take the role of a boy or girl armed with a wand, it seems that we are skillful with magic and all the farming can be done from our wand or magic capabilities, in addition to this throughout our adventure will be very important the spells that pod Emos Create or find by the world, the truth is that there are great variety of magical abilities and each one with certain utilities. The visual effects and fluency of the spells and weapons in the fighting is wonderful, you can tell the detail that they put to the collisions, the hitbox and it shows that it is working the IA and the balance so that each enemy supposes the appropriate challenge.
It'S Amazing the affection to detail in the development of Alchemage, it shows that the developers are professional because I think I have never seen a game of this genre with this level of MIMO for every pixel, seriously, this is my favorite game genre and I think I've tried C So all the games of style and I'm always pending to see what's new coming out and I can assure without fear of mistaken that Alchemage is the most careful of all.
Obviously it lacks a long way, the upgrades go quite slowly but it is understandable if every thing they implement makes you tear out the tears of how well developed and designed it is, neatness in everything they do. While it is true that it is necessary to polish certain aspects of performance, some lower than another FPS but nothing that spoils the game.
In Alchemage you will be able to build, play with friends, Mazmorreo, exploration, craftear spells, have mounts, lootear, fight with dangerous spectra and a long etc of stories by making own of the style of play, although it misses all that content that is about to arrive in future actulizaciones.
Above All I wanted to remark that this game is an essential if you like the genre and in the current state is extremely enjoyable, I bought it out and by chance because Ivestigando by Steam I found it and already in the first version I knew I was before something Ma Gico. It'S A shame he's so little known because the game deserves it.
At the moment is not in Spanish, not if you plan to locate the game to other languages, but it is very simple English and if you have already played games of the genre you will have no problems.
In the future they assure a level editor to share maps in Workshop and prapárense because that can be one of the best tricks to dedicate ourselves to doing very funny things or pixelart who knows ^^ Alchemage in the TOP 3 of the safe genre.
