  -A Total Middle of the Road Experience- Putrefaction is one of those games that makes me wish the Steam reviews section had a rating that was right in the middle. I've played through Putrefaction on "normal" once, dabbled in survival and have a game on the "hard" setting started. The game is enjoyable enough but not wholly recommendable either. On the other hand, it was pretty fun while it lasted. Unlike a game I really, really enjoy and am encouraged to come back and play all of the difficulties, Putrefaction feels like a chore already to start over. In the game you play as an unnamed operative who is sent in to clean up a monster-creating infection in some underground stronghold beneath a mountain. That is as much story as you're going to get. This game probably has less story/atmosphere than Doom I, Quake I and the first Serious Sam. In this game you get equipped with a fun selection of various guns and blast your way through levels crammed with ugly baddies. There's no voice-acting or other distractions to keep you from the task at hand. This game makes even Doom and Quake seem complicated as there are no secrets to be found, keycards or otherwise. As much as I love a back to basics game, this one feels like a totally dry piece of toast with no jam or butter added for flavor. The shooting is fine for the most part. Sometimes things will hiccup graphically but overall I had very little trouble there. The guns are cool, satisfying to use and do some Soldier of Fortune-esque gore damage to the monsters. Monster A.I. on the other hand is dumber than dirt for the most part. You can jump on top of a box if you're having any trouble (and it wasn't very difficult on normal overall), and just pick off ranged enemies while the landlubbers dumbly run up against it...trying to nail you yet being too stupid to figure out how. At least those classic games had beasties that each had their own way of making their demise a pain in the butt. Thankfully some small enemies, ones with guns, a type that rolls, a self-destructor, etc. shake things up slightly from all of the goons that run straight at you (and they are plentiful). There's a pair of boss fights to further spice things up and they were fun enough to fight if rather unoriginal. Sound is unremarkable, the shooting is alright although the monster sounds are rather laughable and shouldn't scare anyone under the age of 10. Control is a little loose, not enough to cause alot of cheap deaths, but don't be surprised if one or two occur. When you need to dodge out of the way of anything, you'll find that you have to plan your movements because Mr. Unnamed Operative skipped the space marine diet/exercise regimen. Jumping is wonky which really isn't a problem as there isn't really any pesky platforming segments. You just shoot, blast, shoot, blast, rinse, repeat. I would say I got more enjoyment out of Dead Effect in recent times than this. Simplicity in gaming is a beautiful thing and I"m always down try these new school takes on old school gaming. The problem here is that it's so very linear. With no secrets to find, no overly challenging or memorable battles, respsawning monsters that block your progression and such point A to B gameplay, it becomes very mundane very quickly. Throwback games are fun, but there has to be some salt, pepper or touch of seasoning to make sure you don't end up "boring" instead of "old school." That's the biggest problem here. I'll break it down into some pros and cons... Pros -Simple, mostly fun old school shooting -Plenty of monsters to fight -Solid selection of guns and most are fun to use -The way guns gore the monsters is entertaining -Boss fights were decent Cons -No secrets, little variety, very plain, bland levels, etc. -Ho-hum graphics (but good enough for what it is) -Unremarkable sound -Controls slightly wonky -Pretty short -Doesn't encourage much replay even with a survival mode and different difficulties -Almost zero of its own personality as a game Overall, depending on how much you are into first person shooters or not will determine if you need to play this. I'm glad I did but I'm not sure I'll get much past my 6/10 achievements and a normal completion. Most every game I own I play through more than once. For whatever reason, it's a struggle to want to progress on hard with absolutely nothing to find because the game is so bare bones. I'm impressed what a single person was able to develop here and Oleg shows lots of potential for future gaming projects but I don't think he's quite found his whole groove yet. I'm going to have to say this one is a pass unless it pops up for less than $5. Rating: 5.0/10 UPDATE: I did find some glitches on hard. I fell through the first level no less than 2 times near the end right when I was about to finish. I dropped the score and uninstalled the game. Yeah, this one is a definite pass unless you got extra cash sitting around.

  i could give this game a recommend if it was in early access but its not i came for an "old school shooter" here is what that means to me X-a non regenerating health system (check) X-carry all your weapons at once (check) X-sprawling non linear levels (no) the levels do that annoying thing where they put up arbitrary forcefeilds when its time for some enemies to spawn, a true oldschool shooter does not spawn enemies (often) they should ALREADY BE THERE, unfrotunately in this game they just pop in in hordes which is no fun X-secrets (no, atleast that i could find anyway) X-persistent corpses (no) this one is so underrated but so fundamental to the oldschool experience, it adds to much immersion to turn around and see all the things you killed.....sadly this game cant handle having the corpses left behind and they dissapear fast, and even then it chugs framewise, and the blood effect left behidn by every enemy (which also fades) is terrible and its filled with bugs, i beat one level by walking through a wall that an enemy was supposed to burst through, but i did it before he spawned and the wall was only cosmetic make a REAL oldschool game devs, then i will shower you with frankly embarassing amounts of cash

  This is and old-shool look-alike FPS. The game itself is not that good, but it is rather fun to play. The horror and stress of playing the first 3 to 4 levels is what made me review this game as a good game. The music makes its job really good, mostly if played with headphones. Playing in hard is challenging, but extreme is just madness. I guess I am not that good at FPS after all. The (in my opinion) broken spawning enemy system together with the creepy music and the roar of the monsters provide a great suspense and tense action shooting experience. I would say from level 5 onwards the game gets a little more boring, with several level design flaws, but it is still fun to shoot around. The final boss is nice to kill, but rather overpowered if you are not skillful enough. Overall, I would recommend the game just to have one or maybe two rounds of fun.

  There should really be a neutral button for games like these. It's not a bad game, it's not great either. It's a fun little budget game. It plays like an old school arcade PC shooter like Duke Nukem, Blood, FEAR or Doom. Take your pick. It's got nice atmosphere, great assortment of guns, lots of blood and gore but after a while the game gets a bit repetitive. Still, it's not a bad game. If you see it on sale, get it. It's usually on sale for $1 or less. 6.5/10 for me.

  Summary (TL;DR):

  Updated 1/28/22 Putrefaction gets a C for effort and a D for execution from me. I honestly thought it was an unremarkable and lacking experience in almost every element I consider important, and in general just never came close to scratching that old-school shooter itch it claims to scratch. It isn't a completely awful game, it's not technically broken or unplayable, and the $1 price tag means you're not risking much. That said though, the cons mentioned below still prevent me from wholeheartedly recommending it. FPS fans who go in with expectations proportionate to the price might be able to eke some entertainment out of Putrefaction, but I think most others will likely be disappointed.

  What Rules:

  - Decent enemy variety rather than a small selection repeatedly reskinned. - Key rebinding and mouse y-axis invert options.

  What Stinks:

  - An almost complete lack of story. While the classic shooters of yesteryear typically skimped on plot, they had compelling gameplay to propel the player forward and keep them interested. Putrefaction unfortunately doesn't provide solid or enjoyable enough gameplay to justify its own lack of narrative. - The environments, level design and overall progression just don't flow very well, aesthetically or logically. The maps don't seem to have any overall theme connecting them, leaving me feeling I was being funneled through linear and seemingly random facility hallways/interiors/caves (This isn't helped one bit by the aforementioned lack of a story). - I both clipped through the map and got stuck in the environment several times. - Combat is the most important area for a FPS to nail (especially one that counts the classics as inspiration), but sadly the combat in Putrefaction is generic, brainless and repetitive, requiring very little actual skill to overcome the oddly-grouped waves of enemies with fairly poor AI. The game's arsenal is just as uninspired as the combat, offering up crudely modeled/skinned weapons that lack punch. Even the rocket launcher felt under-powered.

  My Thoughts:

  Putrefaction is described by the developer as being heavily inspired by old-school shooters from 3D Realms and Id Software. While it's true that it is in fact a FPS that has no regenerating health, cover mechanics or other modern contrivances, any similarities between Putrefaction and its inspirations end there.

  Poor man's Doom 3. It feels like that way first but that's not even comparable with Doom 3, but you got the point. I will try to be not harsh since it's a dirt cheap game but... First of all it's low budget, kind of ugly and not even scary "horror FPS". Gameplay is based on -mostly- linear levels and monster waves. Story is nearly non-existent and cliché (year is 20XX and a virus bla bla). You have to kill all monsters to advance to next checkpoint. Game saves your game automatically when you reach a checkpoint. Short pros/cons list: Pros: + Shotgun is satisfying + Since the game is really simple, it make you keep playing a little longer + Monsters aren't creepy but make you laugh (i'm serious, especially that headless weirdos) Cons: - Framerate issues (Unity) - Sound effects, especially footsteps on metal surfaces - Shotgun's secondary fire doesn't work - Wave system - Level design isn't good and levels consist of same, cramped areas While we're purchasing that kind of cheap titles, we don't expect many things. Yet i believe that we have to write reasonable things with their both strong and weak sides. Try Putrefaction (while discounted) if you're extremely bored but don't expect a decent, short first person shooter experience.

  From the creator of Envy the Dead and The Tape comes the horror FPS title, Putrefaction. The title has a simple premise, which sums up to a new plague has begun to spread and it has been infecting people, transforming their bodies in a ravenous manner. To combat the epidemic, a special force was created and lucky you, you're part of it. Sent on a mission to recon an abandoned base in the mountains, you must find the source of the disease and put a stop to it. As you can tell, the game doesn't have the most thrilling of plots nor does it have much in the way of written context either. In fact the only snippet of story you get in-game is at the very beginning and that's it. If you've ever played Doom, Quake, Unreal Tournament, Serious Sam, Painkiller, or any plethora of semi-wave based shooters, then you've already played a better version of Putrefaction. The title introduces nothing new, it doesn't reinvent the wheel, and it certainly isn't one of the best out there. However, for an indie game it's decent, and given the fact that it's developed in Unity Personal Edition it's surprising that it runs at a mostly stable 144Hz; only dipping down when a lot of enemies and gore are on the screen. Speaking of blood and guts, there's a pleasing amount in Putrefaction, and your shots can also dismember your foes. Basically, you wander along a fairly linear path over the course of 8 levels, picking up weapons, ammo, and health as you go. Occasionally the game will put up a barrier to make you stop, forcing you to kill a few waves of enemy spawns before letting you progress forward. The environments are fairly empty and open, but the assets and lighting are adequate; you will wander through some catacombs, an underground cavern, and a few research labs. The enemy models are uncommon, and it's nice to see a Unity game that doesn't have the same old tired monsters. Surprisingly there are a good amount of weapons that include a shotgun, freeze gun, rocket launcher, energy gun, and your standard rifle, and each of them have a special alternate fire mode. Personally, this game made me disoriented several times. I'm not one for motion sickness, but a combination of the headbob, weapon recoil, and especially the awful way the character jerks around when he gets hurt is completely dizzying. It would be nice if there was a feature to disable these side effects, or at least turn them down quite a bit, as this is the biggest downfall of the game. Another down point is that the developer made the end boss neigh impossible on the hardest difficulty, so be prepared for an unfair "challenge" if you choose to go that route. On the upside, Putrefaction does boast an acceptable soundtrack that's reminiscent of a knock-off Nine Inch Nails. Overall, Putrefaction is a mediocre horror FPS. It's your basic Doom, Quake, Unreal Tournament, etc. clone, but for a low budget indie title it really isn't that bad. Mind you, you're going to be asking yourself why you're not just playing Doom or Quake or Blood instead, but after you've spent the 30-40 minutes it takes to beat the game plus the additional time for the survival mode achievements (if you care), you can go play something better. If you're willing to give it a shot, grab it on sale for a buck, otherwise just wait until you have nothing better to do.

  Putrefaction is a first person shooter game. It's not too bad; somewhat reminiscent of a 1990s game of Doom. It's not fantastic, but it's quite ok to play. You are deep in a laboratory facility, with the intent of investigating the outbreak of a disease, but you end up fighting off hordes of horrible mutants instead (my initial investigation of the facility lasted about a minute, the rest of the time was spent being attacked by mutants, or walking around being scared of being attacked by mutants). As someone who doesn't like horror movies (and therefore never watches horror movies), I think that this game had a bigger impact upon me than it would upon someone who loves horror films and is therefore inured to the genre (of course, it could be that someone who loves horror movies has something a bit psychologically wrong with them in the first place). The ambience of Putrefaction is quite good; the confined darkened corridors, the spooky music, and the monsters all add up to a "perfect storm" of heart-pumping action (although, bear in mind that it looks like a 1990s-style game). I must admit that, when I was attacked for the first time by one of the second type of mutants, who was skittering along the ground towards me (and therefore I didn't see him straight away, until he was almost in my face), his initial attack elicited an involuntary "F**k me!" from my lips (this is coming from someone who doesn't like to swear, and who tries to avoid doing so). Each time I walked through a doorway into a new area of the underground complex and a "Game saved" message appeared upon the screen, I though "Oh no!", because I knew I was going to be attacked by yet another horde of mutants. My only real gripes about the game were: 1) It doesn't tell you what the controls are; you have to figure them out for yourself. However, they are the standard FPS WASD type of controls, so it should only take an experienced gamer a few seconds to work them out. 2) You can't change the controls. 3) You can't save the game. However, it does auto-save when you enter into new areas. As an aside, I thought that the music was very well done, and possibly outshined all of the other elements of the game. It's only $5 on Steam, so it's not a bad price (and if you buy it when it's on special, then even better). It might not exactly be my cup of tea, but it is well-made (albeit, 1990s style). If you like horror games or fighting mutants, then this game would be worth getting.

  (Ignore Playtime I Mostly Play Offline) As a fan of gonzo shooters in the vein of Painkiller & Serious Sam and Old school Dos shooters like Doom & Corridor 7, I really enjoyed this game! Loads of enemies, Tons of blood and some particularlly nice explosions. Also if you are looking for a challange Putrefaction has it in spades (level six for instance is fiendishly difficult). Sure there are some technical issues here and there but nothing that made me want to throw my mouse accross the room. and it can be a little rough around the edges but on the whole looks & Plays good. If your after Tactical, Stealthy cobblers go elsewhere, if you want chunky guns, big explosions and Literally Fountains of Gore Putrefaction will definately do the trick 8\10
