Blood Waves

Very nice game with a beautiful girl fighting with zombies :D ...game is simple ..survive zombies waves and buy upgrades and such things for being more powerfull ..if you like figthing zombies ..then you definetly need try this game ...have fun and enjoy !!

Didn't go into this one with much to ask , just something to enjoy and play.
And that's sort of what i got with Blood Waves , it's a straightforward 3rd person survival shooter which feels like playing Resident Evil of sorts.
You have a skilltree where you get 1point per wave you finish , and money after each wave , to purchase weapons and upgrades.
Now let me start with saying that the Skilltree is busted , you can stack damage reduction , you get up to 6% of your max hp PER SECOND regenerated and then you have the classics like stamina increase , headshot dmg multiplier you know the good stuff.
Weapons huh , Pistol , Uzi , Shotgun , Ak , Rocket Launcher(RPG) , Minigun and ... an AWP? Oh yeah there's also the Machete which noone will ever use again now that you start with a Pistol (seriously why tho)
They all serve their purpose but to switch between any weapon you have to use the Weaponwheel , there are no hotkeys to bind weapons to . yet?
But what is the game?
It's essentially a wavebased tower defence where you can purchase and place Turrets / Devices to slaughter zombies.
There is no limit to how far you can go , but your journey might end due to an unexpected bug which is fair enough considering Early Access day1 OR you proceed further than people would've expected and discover that there's absolutely no spawncycle present for wave30+ in addition to that the engine showed symptoms of giving up by the sheer amount of Monsters present on the map.
Yes Early Access , yes day 1 but some things are just lul.
The Controls cannot be rebinded .yet? The Graphic settings are very limited , there is no ini access for modification and dual monitor setup is buggy(your cursor is gonna exit the window every time you visit the shop to upgrade.)
The mouse is completely laggy , it feels as if there's vsync active , floaty , hard to predict and slow. The game is capped at 60fps for whatever reason. The Dodge has i-frames yes but the draveldistance is 404 it looks a lil like me doing a somersault as a kid. The running is toggle only , occasionally messes up when trying to cancel.
The enemies are basic zombies , heavy zombies , spitter zombies , boomer zombies and and Lightning zambonies , doesn't matter you shoot the head it dies.
Apart from that you have a game , you can play it , you can enjoy it to a certain extent depending on how much you're into the genre or may or may not enjoy the game.
For 10 bucks it's whatever honestly and if the team or the person puts some effort into playability , polish,hardware utilisation , spawncycles past wave30 , a different sound for the awp fire , some new weapons , some new zambonies and some minor overhauls of textures and gameFX. Yes the game looks good , but it doesn't need to look good , it needs to run well. Framedrops affect sensitivity , visuals . But none of that matters when ur forced to play with 60fps and ur mouse literally equalling the responsiveness of UT99 controls.
This game is better than alot of the games on the market , it's nothing out of the ordinary , but it has it's own thing going.
If this receives some love , some content and polish then this could be fun game with replayability.
The only thing that i do see happening is the game being made too easy across the board by all the people whining about how hard it is.
I'm not trying to be an Elitist douchebag i'm just being realistic . I don't feel like i accomplished anything when i got it handed to me on a silver plate.
Give it a go , it's 10 bucks what the hell.

This is a good game with great potential. The game mechanics are well made and planned, and its concept is indeed fun. There is so much room for improvement, however, the foundation of the game is strong, and is stable on its own. I do suggest that the developers improve the game, and improve on a lot of areas. Blood Waves, i feel, is only 10% to 20% complete, but is a very, very strong 10% to 20%. As an early access, it is a good game. I'm reviewing this game as of version 0.6. The remaining 0.4 should have a steep and uphill development, because the game is obviously not ready for a version 1.0. Still, a really really fun game.

OK game with a garbage controller setup. cant even edit it. only buy onsale

I own this game on my PS4 but have never played it. I saw it here on steam on sale for .99 cents and figured what the heck might as well jump on this deal and get it for my steam deck as well. I just put about an hour into this game and i wasn't disappointed at all. This game will definitely be among my top 5 Zombie Wave Games. Also this game should be listed as Steam Deck verified as i am playing it on the deck and it is playing great. Now i can't wait to play it on my PS 4 also.

This game needs improvements but for the price point, its worth it! the traps are extremely fun to use against the zombies and there are different types of zombies to fight. The upgrade system in the game requires strategy because you get 1 upgrade point for your character at the end of each wave you complete. Some upgrades require 2 points and each trap and gun have there own damage upgrades as well.
If you are looking to get a fun and casual zombie survival game thats wave based, i highly recommend it. the devs are also adding coop to the game in the future and im looking foward to future updates to the game.

Even at version 0.404 this game is worth the $10. Developement could completely stop and you would still have a pretty good Hord mode. I rarely purchase Early Acess games due to how many times I've been burned, but in this case you get a decently fleshed out game, with good graphics, and fun gameplay right off the bat.
As for the game, it's an interesting hybrid of Horde mode, survival horror, and strategy. You fight waves of zombies, and between every wave you have a chance to upgrade your character, buy ammo, weapons, or upgrade said weapons. You can also place traps and turrets to help take out the zombies. All of which cost money you make by completing waves. The first few waves are all about making enough money to reload your gun. As you progress you make more money, and are able to expand arsenal. All of these features are already in game, and they've yet to even release Version 1.0. This is how Early Access should be done.
