Description

About the Game

Congratulations, Operator #8

You have been randomly selected for the ITER Corporation’s exciting vertical ventures department. Drill the pillars that encircle our homeworld, extract essential resources, and try not to get obliterated in the process. If you fail, don’t worry,  your replacement will be along shortly - probably with a better attitude.

> Mining 101

Crack open the Pillars like a big happy management-mandated breakroom piñata. Inside you’ll find valuable minerals and definitely no workplace hazards.

> Defend Company Property! (With Your Life, Please)

The Company needs you, your hand eye coordination, and your bullets. Take control of the gun tower and build automated turrets to fend off waves of potential threats on the surface.

> Upgrades, People! Upgrades!

ITER puts self-improvement first. Mine faster, shoot harder, or slap some duct tape on that gear in the name of “R&D.” Your career growth is in your hands (until they’re vaporised).

> End of Life Policy

We are grateful for your continued commitment to ITER. Your inevitable replacement will pick up where you left off and may even bring new skills… Remember, in space, no one can hear you scream - and to do so is a waste of valuable company time

I can't recommend this game in its current state. There are tons of bugs that hasn't been fixed yet. You get constantly stuck while moving both interior and exterior, infinite explosions, combat that doesn't end even

Well educated fluid running TD roguelike with that 'cleanup' feature that kept me going. More content would be nice, but I had a lot of fun going through this. Recommended, especially when on sale!

Great game. Very similar to Dome Keeper if you've played that. Explore in your little ship, mine, and fight off hordes of different machines. Took me maybe 8 hours to get most of the unlocks in the skills tab. Overall,

ITER-8 is not for everyone but, it's a good game for those who do like this type. If you have played "Dome Keeper" and liked it, then this is worth buying at it's low price point. This game has so much potential as

Fun for what it is but after two charachters you basically saw everthing. New stuff on skill tree doesn't give too much of reason to play further but I did want to finish atleast one time with all four class workers.

It's an alright game, takes a lot from other mining games and doesn't really provide anything new. Not recomended due to the meta tree being so sparse and generally unhelpful. You have to spend meta credits to unlock
