Fantastic game amazing art style and animations, gonna play the hell outta the sequel.
9/10
Great FPS, I'm mad that it took me so long to try it. I still didn't finish it but it's extremely addictive. And the metal music on the background... NICE!
A decent boomer shooter game that I got on sale. The boss fights are okay but they do feel a little lack-luster. Enemy designs are cool AF though
Great lovecraftian boomer shooter, save for a few bugs every once in a while like weapons not switching until fired or secrets not counting if I don't pick up health/ammo while full.
spiritually an xbox 360 indie marketplace game and not in a good way
