The tech demo showcases innovative generative physics animations, providing a glimpse into the potential future of immersive gameplay.
Graphics are immersive, and the movement mechanics, such as auto push-ups when falling, add a unique touch to the experience.
It's a free demo that, despite its current limitations, shows promise for future development and could revolutionize physics-based gameplay.

The demo lacks a coherent story and feels more like a test version, with janky movement and poorly optimized performance leading to crashes.
Many features seem outdated, resembling technology from 20 years ago, and the demo fails to effectively display its capabilities.
The linear structure and lack of engaging content may leave players feeling unsatisfied, as it does not offer a fulfilling gaming experience.
