Super Sagan RPG
« on: November 11, 2014, 03:49:22 pm »

Stumbled across this item on RPS about Super Sagan RPG, an indie turn-based tactical where you play as famous scientists of history strapped into a mecha suit.

So far, the scientists are:

Isaac Newton
Marie Curie
Charles Darwin
Albert Einstein
Erwin Schrodinger
Nikola Tesla

Playing around with it now, will post some impressions shortly.


EDIT: Still very rough alpha. One of the biggest complaints I have is that if you select an attack and then cancel it, you still lose the energy cost to make the attack. THat's a big one to fix. Still, it has potential beyond the initial kitsch factor. Will keep an eye on this.

DOUBLE EDIT: And oddly enough (given the name), no Carl Sagan. Or Thomas Edison, even though their blurb on IndieDB mentions Edison. Also, the RPS comment section is great in the variety of alternate names people came up with. My personal favorite: deGrasse Tyson's Punch-Out  :P

(Although Gears of Bohr and The Hawking Dead are honorable mentions).

It's free, so why not?
