The gameplay has received mixed reviews, with players noting that the unusual camera mechanics and limited line of sight can be disorienting and detract from the experience. While some appreciate the unique viewcone mechanic, many criticize the aiming and shooting controls as clunky and unrefined, leading to a lack of immersion and satisfaction. Overall, the game shows potential but requires significant improvements in core mechanics, graphics, and content to enhance the overall experience.
- “Cool game, love the setup and gameplay; it's easy and fun.”
- “The game is a lot better but is lacking a lot of content; they have balanced some things and some mechanics.”
- “This affects the line of sight mechanic (which I actually like) because if you try to give some space, you can no longer see them at all.”
- “Firstly, the camera is unusual and it takes some time to get used to. The game uses a view cone, and you won't see any people or items behind you until you turn your view cone to face them (which is not necessarily a bad mechanic). For some reason, the game uses a mouse pointer, so you have to hold right-click to aim.”
- “It is still in early access, but the core mechanics need to be reworked to achieve a premium feel.”
- “Your player has very limited vision, sprint is limited, and you are deaf too, because you don't know where shots are fired. You can't see what's under your feet, the aiming mechanic is frustrating, and there are no jumps.”
