I enjoyed this! The thing that initially attracted me to playing this series were the designs of the frames, they looked so cool. This held up well in game too, I also really liked the music and darker world design.

When playing in combat, the handling of the frame felt really smooth and responsive, animations looked particularly great. Switching between dashing around firing off ranged attacks before closing in and engaging in melee was cool.

Having the building damage and casualties be tracked during some of the missions and impacting you're performance was an interesting idea. Added a bit more thought as to where or how you engaged the enemy out of fear of risking more casualties from knocking a building down in a fight.

My main criticism was that I found the levels to get a little repetitive, with backtracking occurring quite a bit, and not much enemy variety, though the game was short. Some of the missions got a little confusing in terms of where you needed to backtrack to, to get a code or item but nothing too bad.

Overall I enjoyed this, and I'm interested with how it continues in the sequel!
