Pros
Pro Humorous story
The plot of Super Time Force Ultra consists of the main characters going back in time to alter events in history. The twist is that most of the reasons they do so are petty and selfish. This gives the game a light-hearted tone that can be laugh-out-loud funny at times.
Pro 4 different soldiers to play
There are four different soldiers the player can use on each time rewind playthrough, each with their own weapon. Some soldiers are required to get past certain areas, which creates the need for a bit of planning for each and every level.
Pro Pixel artwork and sound design are well done
The pixel artwork and chiptune sound design complement each other and call to mind the 8-bit style. Super Time Force Ultra incorporates some modern touches by taking advantage of newer technology that allows for more sounds at once as well as including more detailed and cleaner sprite work.
Pro Single player co-op
The co-op in Super Time Force Ultra is actually only single-player. Players co-op with themselves by rewinding time and then playing that time over with what are now two players on the screen.
Pro Endless solutions
With proper planning, users can "code" together very precise ways to create all the things needed for the game, some in very inventive ways that can differ quite a bit. This allows for tons of replayability.
Pro Under active development
The game is still in Alpha which means endless future possibilities.
Pro Massive and infinite procedurally generated world
The playing world is as large as you want to explore, it automatically generates it as you explore more areas.
Pro Cooperative or PvP building
Factorio also supports multiplayer, allowing many players to cooperate and assist each other, or work against each other in PvP. By default, multiplayer games run the CO-OP freeplay scenario where all players work together to launch a rocket with a satellite into space.
Pro Charming old school graphics
While not the most technically advanced graphics the look of the game is much like a game from the 90s but seeing it in action when an assembly line starts moving there is an impressiveness to it that suits the game quite well.
Cons
Con Single player
Con Short
The game can be completed in only a couple of hours.
Con Can become rather repetitive
There's really little payoff for being able to build really long chains of automation, it usually results in being able to open a new tech tree which allows the player to continue the process of building automation chains ad infinitum, which, admittedly can become rather boring after a while.
Con Still in Early Access
The game is still in Early Access which means there will be bugs as well as missing features.
