I had a lot of fun with Ace of Spades when it was free. I felt the shooter mechanics and netcode were pretty solid (though shallow with only a rifle, SMG, and shotgun to choose from). The commercial version doesn't appear to add anything meaningful beyond the free game other than a bit of polish.
For me, the most interesting part of the game is the engine. It uses Ken Silverman's old Voxlap engine. Ken Silverman is the guy who wrote the Build engine, used in games like Duke3D, Shadow Warrior, and Redneck Rampage. I loved Build! |

Yes, this game is not very good. The old, free version was more interesting. Sadly they fethed up when they made this one.
The idea behind is interesting but the interface itself is clunky and manipulating the world does not work very well nor does it have much purpose. It could probably be a bit better if they made the map smaller and gave the teams some time before the actual game started to fortify their base. They didn't and thus the game does not work very well. Apart from that it's not very well made.
Some indie developers make the movement, the controls and the overall feeling of the game "fluent", it just feels good, like in Trine or in Unepic, to name to arbitrary examples. A fps example would be Warsow (although this is based on the quake 2 engine and thus the reason why the movement is good) but Ace of Spades just doesn't feel any fun, nor is it fun to play. |

| Not sure if people play, but the game isn't that good. Just burrow a hole and you can defend anything. The maps are way to big for current players. oh well. They tried. |

"Ace Of Spades"
If you like to gamble, I tell you I'm your man, You win some, lose some, all the same to me, The pleasure is to play, makes no difference what you say, I don't share your greed, the only card I need is The Ace Of Spades
Playing for the high one, dancing with the devil, Going with the flow, it's all the game to me, Seven or Eleven, snake eyes watching you, Double up or quit, double stake or split, The Ace Of Spades
You know I'm born to lose, and gambling's for fools, But that's the way I like it baby, I don't wanna live for ever, And don't forget the joker!
Pushing up the ante, I know you wanna see me, Read 'em and weep, the dead man's hand again, I see it in your eyes, take one look and die, The only thing you see, you know it's gonna be, The Ace Of Spades
