gameplay10 positive mentions

story3 negative mentions

Unique and satisfying first-person beat'em up combat with three distinctive combat styles (barehanded, melee weapon, ranged weapon) that encourage dynamic play and skillful switching.
Strong atmospheric and artistic direction combining early 2000s retro aesthetics with cyberpunk and grunge influences, supported by an excellent, homebrewed electronic/techno soundtrack that enhances the mood and energy.
Smooth, fast-paced movement and gameplay that feels fresh and addictive, offering challenging encounters with responsive controls and rewarding combat mechanics including parrying, combo extensions, and environmental interactions.

Limited content at current early access stage with only a few levels, leading to some repetitive gameplay and lack of variety in enemy designs and map interaction.
Upgrade and shop systems feel underdeveloped or frustrating, with significant upgrades locked behind secrets causing pacing issues and the shop being perceived as mostly pointless.
Some technical issues including occasional bugs, softlocks, and certain gameplay elements needing polish and balance adjustments, such as confusing enemy telegraphs, HUD limitations, and underpowered melee moves.

gameplay
26 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
38% positive mentions, 50% neutral mentions, 12% negative mentions
The gameplay is praised for its dynamic, fast-paced combat that blends influences from various action and FPS games, offering a unique and addictive experience with satisfying mechanics and polished execution. However, it currently suffers from limited customization, repetitive core loops, and underutilized environmental interactions, suggesting room for refinement and expanded mechanics in future updates. Overall, it delivers fun and challenging combat but could benefit from more variety and progression elements to enhance player engagement.
- “The gameplay itself feels like if you made Devil May Cry into first person.”
- “This gameplay feels like a fantastic mixture of Titanfall, Dishonored, Shadow Warrior, Ultrakill, Ghostrunner, and Condemned Criminal Origins, all blended into a melee sort of immersive sim boomshoot, and it really does not disappoint.”
- “A fresh take on the FPS genre with three different styles to annihilate, tons of movement mechanics, and gorgeous retro/modern visuals.”
- “Not only does it make the process of trying to improve your character more tedious, it actively affects the overall gameplay flow negatively.”
- “Without upgrades, the core gameplay loop of this game so far gets pretty repetitive, and having them relegated to secrets deprives the player of feeling progression that they would feel normally if upgrades were just something you could buy via the in-game shop.”
- “The platforming is barely used meaningfully, the "puzzles" so far just amount to pressing a button that opens a door, and outside of explosive cars there's little to no way to interact with the environment to spice up the current gameplay loop.”
music
23 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
48% positive mentions, 52% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions
The game's music is widely praised for its energetic, bass-heavy electronic soundtrack that perfectly complements the fast-paced combat, with many describing it as a "banger" and highly atmospheric. While some users wish for more dynamic interaction between the music and gameplay, the overall consensus highlights a standout, well-crafted OST that enhances the immersive experience. Fans of the developer's work particularly appreciate the homebrewed tracks and their unique style.
- “Music is also fantastic, with good variety, and the bass-heavy electronic tracks match the combat's energy perfectly.”
- “Mark of a dedicated developer who can craft a kickass standalone soundtrack to warrant a whole game based on it.”
- “Also, an absolutely insane soundtrack that goes so hard.”
graphics
13 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
38% positive mentions, 62% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions
The game's graphics uniquely blend low-poly, pixelated visuals reminiscent of early 2000s PS1/PS2 era games with modern lighting effects, creating a nostalgic yet fresh cyberpunk aesthetic. Reviewers praise its distinctive art style and atmosphere, though some note minor desires for more visual variety among enemies. Overall, the retro-modern visual fusion strongly complements the game's fast-paced action and thematic vibe.
- “The aesthetic seems to combine low poly, low res, pixelated graphics with modern lighting, which gives the game a unique look.”
- “The PS1/PS2 era graphics and art style look fantastic and perfectly complement the overall vibe of the game, although I do wish some of the enemies were a bit more varied visually, just a minor gripe.”
- “A fresh take on the FPS genre with three different styles to annihilate, tons of movement mechanics and gorgeous retro/modern visuals.”
