Features:

- Floating rib cage heads will pulverize you in seconds if not fighting hard enough.
- Buy open doors made out of guts and flesh to expand the tight map.

The visuals are really cool and atmospheric but the gameplay is just boring and frustrating. The enemies kill you in one hit, go through walls, make no sound and are hard to distinguish from the environment. You have to constantly turn around to search for them and even then some will get you.32 found this helpful
I had a lot fun playing this game, though it does feel a bit unfinished at the moment. It's brutally challenging, but pretty fun. The controls are super tight, and the environment has a good spooky vibe to it. It could use a few more levels, some music, and some heads up before the enemies hit you, other than that it's pretty solid. I recommend putting on a heavy metal playlist in the background and jamming out while you play. I'll definitely be playing more to try and get that hardcore trophy! All & all I'd say it was absolutely worth the 3.99 (on sale) to support a solo indie dev. Great work Rain!11 found this helpful
I really want to enjoy this game because I'm a fan of body horror aesthetics but sadly the game suffers from mediocre gameplay with slow enemy spawns making each wave extremely tedious and the retro horror level visuals is just too dark outside of the starting area to where I can't see some of the smaller floating worm creatures unless I'm really close to them.3 found this helpful

The visuals and environment alone is worth the buck or so I got from the sale. The gameplay is a bit of a hit or miss. It is really tough with the monsters not making a sound and being able to one shot you is annoying. The game needs more feedback to the player. Hitmarkers, sounds, radar, anything. The map can get a bit cramped since it is small and the monsters can fly and go through walls. It is clear there was a lot of effort in this game, it just need a bit more polish for it to be fun. If the dev is aiming for it to be tough, it is but it's not quite fair. You are able to one shot mostly everything which is fair enough but I don't like how the monsters can sneakly kill you since you get no warning. Yeah you will get a jump from me by doing that but it very quickly gets annoying trying to figure out how you died after. I really want to see this game to work and the dev's future games work because from the visuals, they sorta know how to make body horror work.1 found this helpful
