Just bought Deadnaut recently. What fantastic immersion.
I found several bugs though, the most annoying of which was when you had to scroll in game on a menu, for example selecting weapons, the on screen arrows did not thing so I could not scroll without the clunky mouse wheel. Odd.
Anyway overall the game is great but having only 4 missions is real problem. Not sure why there is this limitation. I would have thought you could built up get more people, have a set of squads you play with. Maybe all this will be coming I don't know.
The game is indeed as others have said quite unforgiving and the hacking elements are indeed superb.
So in summary.
* only 4 missions and then it's the end. Really needs far more. They are though EXTREMELY challenging and they change every time you "Start over".
* If it can have more than 4 missions you could build up sets of squads to expand the scenarios even more that would indeed be good if it had this.
* could really use tool tips as the manual is not the best and there are still some bits and pieces I am not sure on
* some built in tutorials would not go amiss to get people in. I had to watch a few lets plays to be able to understand what I was doing.
* Key rebinding please. This is an accessibility issue. You cannot rebind keys. In this day and age this should really be a given and part of any standard design, it is not a deal breaker for me but is an annoyance. I would really like to rebind the keys to be on the RIGHT side of the keyboard not the left. Anyway a minor issue for this title.
* Campaign editor and/or scenario editor so you can adjust difficulty to get started.
It is still excellent ,worth a buy, the immersion is fantastic, all the data you collect and the backstory is just awesome. It is just a little short. Always support your indie dev :)
