Jan. 2025

There are some bullshit sections, particularly at the end, and whoever's decision it was to not make weapons work underwater sucks. I get that's "realistic" but if you want realism, go outside. It sucks for gameplay. Weapon upgrade stations take way too long for them to do their thing while you just sit there and do nothing, and just having alt fire on every weapon from the get-go would've been more fun. Unreal did it, you can too. Movement is slow. There's not a lot of enemy variety. And during my playthrough, there was one part on the final level that would not stop crashing. Eventually it stopped crashing, but it had to have crashed about a dozen times before that, rapid fire, and I still have no idea why. The game is also very, very short. Overall I had fun with it, but I honestly don't know whether to recommend it or not.

Decent shoot game with decently satisfying shoots and a strong Quake spirit. The engine written by a Russian in a shed however is very fascinating.

Nov. 2024

a short and sweet but tough boom shoot with a great soundtrack, good late 90's - 2000's artstyle with some mediocre level design. i'd say its worth it when on sale

Looks like a fun boomer shooter with a Quake4/Doom3 vibe but... I've been blocked early in the game, I was unable to find the main deck keycard ....

Game has the right type of vibe for me, and it is fun if you like Chasm: The Rift and other Quake 1 to Quake 2 era shooters. Game is also hampered by extremely frustrating jank. * Achievements are bugged. I keep getting pop-ups for them, but they're not actually unlocking. * More than two of the jumping dog-like enemies in a hall or small room can just crowd you and then skull blast you to death because the second you turn to deal with one, it jumps and another jumps on you -- it just feels cheap as f**k the amount of damage you will take in this situation, and it's really, really annoying. * Speaking of cheap, game likes to ambush you. There's actually an elevator section where you will be surrounded on 3 sides getting blasted. * Game effectively has no platforming, except in maybe crouch-jump to get secrets. Until Troubled Waters you have to jump from rope to platforms to hit switches. The way it functions absolutely baffled me. You jump forward onto the rope, but if you hold forward the PC just yeets themselves forwards to huge HP loss if not death because you may yeet into the reactor of the teleporter -- which you can't escape from. Furthermore, they do not jump very far. There are times i felt like i had climbed as high as i could have and attempted to jump to the platform and he may as well have just let go off the rope and plummeted to their death since they barely jumped an inch forward. Is this a skill issue? Yeah, sure but it also controls such that it is counter intuitive and doesn't feel natural at all. Game is a decent to pretty fun one-man love letter to Chasm and Quake with hints of Half-Life. The guns all feel pretty good. It feels good to gib enemies. Use the saw blade to cut mans arms off. And pretty well hidden secrets, with some paying direct homage to their influences and i had no real problems with the level design -- some more diverse and colourful set dressing would have been nice but i get it. In regards to my qualms, most of it is simply design decisions -- so it is what it is. However, I think they should fix the achievements, it surely can't be a huge endeavour to do so and players on the forum have been mentioning this for awhile. Maybe grab it on sale if you're unsure but i think it's worth playing.
