Project Nimbus: Complete Edition doesn’t break any new ground, and it likely won’t keep you playing for too long, either. But what it does offer is some incredibly fun, fast-paced combat with a varied set of mechs to pilot, and an enjoyable but corny plot like something out of a mid-tier anime.

That all said, if you are a fan of mechs, and want to blast off into combat then Project Nimbus: Complete Edition has some great mech combat. It feels like a cross between Gundam and Ace Combat and shooting up the skies in a battle frame is incredibly satisfying. At around $19.99, you could do far worse than loading up Warfronts and taking some pot shots at another giant robot. Project Nimbus: Complete Edition is out now for Nintendo Switch. You can grab it on the Nintendo eShop.

Project Nimbus isn’t bad, it does too many things competently to deserve such a label. And it isn’t utterly bereft of fun; at times I was enjoying zipping around the battlefield launching autonomous drones to hunt down targets. However, the core gameplay loop just doesn’t sustain any feeling of satisfaction. If I felt like I was in better control, the combat might be enough to keep me going in spite of everything else. If the mission structure added more to the experience, I’d be better able to overlook some of the issues with the mecha control. If the plot brought a more engrossing an…

That said, none of that makes up for the excessively floaty controls, bad camera that makes everything harder than it should be, completely disconnected story elements, and overall feeling of frustration that overtook any fun I could have had playing this. If you are a hardcore fan of anime and mech combat games, you will probably be able to adapt to the controls and get some enjoyment out of this. However, even then, I’d still suggest the Zone of the Enders games or just about anything els...
