Astroflux

Update; Didn't know the servers have recently started going on the fritz all the time. So atm it's not functional, people say the devs are working on it, but this game is an old flash mmo soooo eh. I'll leave my review as-is since it WAS a good game lol
7/10 I really like this game, I'm sad it doesn't have a finished Mid-High level zone. My progress is basically stalled because everything is either too easy/low reward, or far too hard to kill, with nothing in between. Also a lil annoyed that key quality of life features are locked behind a pay-wall, but it's a free game, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I got more than a reasonable amount of fun out of this game. It's pretty unique too.

A game I used to play alot as a kid when it was still flash based. Lots a great memories and great people when the servers will still active.
The balance was a bit wonky from system to system, and some weps/ships are just broken to the point that with arts they would define the meta for years unchanged.
The gameplay is still great, the movement, mechanics & the weapon types added enough depth to the game to require you to atleast think about how to counter specific enemy's, which is more than i can say for alot of simple games from this era.
Runs on a toaster so most anyone can play it which is important with how expensive new hardware is + its nice to enable users with old integrated graphics to have fun too. If the servers were up more often, it could be a fun time for a small group of friends. If the dev asked for infrastructure help, id love to try and run a (in-game) "system" with my spare proxmox resources if the game permits splitting up the servers like that, which i assume because of the loading screen when warping, but i have no real clue.
None the less, this game has plenty of value regardless of its age. It might mostly just be because of how awful alot of modern f2p games are now, but this game feels like it focuses on you having fun more than most others within the f2p category do. Im happy that i got to play at least 1 more time while i could still find active players, before the servers became alot harder to join & maintain a connection. Its never going to be as big as it was once, but its still nice to keep this old thing alive. I would only suggest playing this game if you have a bud to go with you. PVE is still more fun when you have a friend to fight alongside.
Oh also i dont need to use proton to run it, cant take that for granted. :)

Игра "Astroflux" — это увлекательная аркада с космической тематикой, где игрок управляет кораблём, собирая энергию и избегая астероидов. Графика яркая, а динамичный геймплей захватывает с первых минут. Однако повторяющиеся уровни и отсутствие сюжета могут наскучить. Подойдёт для коротких развлечений, но не для глубокого погружения. Рекомендую попробовать, если любите быстрые и яркие игры.

Goodbye my childhood game!
