April 2025
White knuckle is undoubtedly my favorite game and it easily surpasses so many AAA games when it comes to production quality, content, gameplay, and horror aspects. It's like Peaks of Yore (movement style) had a child with ULTRAKILL (graphics) while ULTRAKILL was cheating on Half-Life (enemy designs) so what I'm saying is, White Knuckle is peak.

Really good game, but it sucks that you lose the run and all your progress if you exit, considering a run can take quite some time

Found this game while it was still only a demo, sunk 80 hours into it basically playing all modes, setting time records and climbing higher and higher and I can firmly say that the EA release did not disappoint me one bit. Love the game, love the devs.

6.7 hours in the demo alone. It's so satisfying to master the mechanics of this game. Every death, again and again, I knew was because I could've done something better. Momentum, weight, staying aware of your environment. It's such a simple loop but every mechanic is deep enough to reward you for paying more attention to it. Considering I already adored the demo, I know what's here is worth it.

I haven't played it much yet, but the demo alone could have been called its own great fucking game, which I played like an addict for 30 hours straight. The movement in it is so satisfying, you can feel the force behind it all. Multiple routes, quite a sum of usable items, and sectors of the game with randomized rooms make you want to keep replaying it. And when you get the hang of all the mechanics, getting higher and faster records feels so good. The whole game has grim and dark aesthetic and matching soundtrack immerses you in the eerie abandoned facility. I'm eating it all up I spit myself in the face for waiting too long to support the game on Patreon, and when I finally tried to do it, they closed it that same day T oT I beg you buy this masterpiece, or at least try the demo, and then see that it is a gold mine and then buy it.
