Oct. 2024

One of the most "yes but with some caveats" I've ever recommended. This game has a lot of style, atmosphere, and a bio-horror aesthetic working wonders in the GZDoom engine. Demands a more expansive sequel. Highlights: - Fast, frenetic combat when it happens. - Open world exploration makes discovery feel natural and fun. - World design is appropriately gross-out and blech, love it. Wonderfully bizarre art design. There's an intenstine vomit waterfall. - Shortcuts are exciting and give you the Dark Souls "oh yeah!" moments. - Story is obtuse yet enthralling, you don't get a lot of it and it raises a lot more tantalizing questions. - Wish there was more: more combat, more lore, more areas, more abilities. Such a solid jumping off point. Needs a side dodge, a grappling hook and a rocket launcher. Downsides: - Not nearly enough combat, lots of open empty areas with nothing to do. - Map desperately needs fast travel and a legend. Some optional waypoints for suggested places to go would be nice. - Bosses are circle-strafe bullet sponges. I beat almost every one of them first time. - Some abilities become obsolete almost immediately, like the freeze bullet on acid water. - Shotgun feels underpowered. I never used it after getting it. - Enemies don't respawn but you get infinite healing at checkpoints, trivializing progress at times. - A particular dark section is annoying to explore because your light trails behind you, creating a stop-go pace that is sluggish.

One of the better GZDoom games I've played. A really nice, focused Metroidvania experience that has an excellent atmosphere.

Banger tbh, i like the setting and the plot is epic. Also the secret weapons are awesome and definitely a must get

10/10 would orboros again Take 2 parts Doom, 1 part Darksouls, 1/4 part Duke Nukem (savin' the babe, shrink mode), combine using the rustiest blender you can dredge up from a pond, wrap in one of those wood chip low carb torillas, and bake in the head of a 14yo boy who was sheltered his whole life until he heard his first nu-metal six weeks ago for about 2 hours of smooth, and very well present gameplay, until it's solid as I am now are for pixelated bush

Dec. 2023

The good: - Solid story. - Story pacing/progression is pretty good. - Controls feel smooth. - Weapons and weapon upgrades feel fun to use. - There are a good number of secrets and areas to explore (but not too many). - Your character moves fast, so backtracking and getting around is pretty easy to do. There are also shortcuts that help. - I feel I was able to accomplish things a bit out of order, which I consider good for a metroidvania game. Nothing game breaking, though. The bad: - Some coloring and visual cues are too subtle. It causes confusion in the early game, and you may not know why you are dying. - The method for beating many of the bosses is the same, although boss mechanics are different. It wasn't too hard, but it was a bit repetitive. - The map is pretty hard to use/read. Other: - The game took me just under 3 hours to beat with 90% of the secrets found. Its short, but I personally do not mind this. - I played with Mouse/Keyboard and respawning was not intuitive. You need to press 'E' to respawn. There was no prompt for me that says this and I had to figure it out myself. - Alt+Tabbing is buggy on Windows 11, but no crashes or anything.
