Wrought Flesh

Miziziziz I watched devlogs for this, bought it at launch, found it almost unplayable. Waited for it to be fixed, and he almost did, but abandoned it. Just because we like his YT videos doesn't make this game good, doesn't make the bugs acceptable and it doesn't make the incomplete nature of this any better. He got burnt out, bored, whatever, but people still like the idea and the personality behind it. This game is incredibly difficult but that's not the problem. Organs degrade to fast to be useful, combat is paced weirdly, constant bugs, very little story, not much to do. It's a wonderful concept but it's just unfinished.

the game is a horribly janky mess where you can get stuck between objects with no way out other than to load a save (which are not at will), and crashing during loading is not that rare. premise of using organs seems cool, but in the game you dont get that much choice anyway; they come in the same shapes throughout the whole game, without any uniquely shaped organs nor an opportunity to "expand" your body. it really boils down to just a different take on durability, with you having to replace them every so often. the final area feels like the dev just didnt wanna keep going anymore as it completely falls apart; a barren snowy field with a few pieces of debris outside (some of which doesnt even have collisions) and a dead space-y inside section with 1 enemy type the whole way through not counting the boss. after which the game... just continues. you dont even get a single line in the journal thats like "jobs done". at this point i highly doubt it will ever be revisited and i wouldnt recommend it in its current state

wayyy too expensive for its quality

really sloppy, unfun, and uncaring. you get a sentence of context "Kill lanhe" and are plopped on a random planet with 10 hp and a gun. The tastes of whoever made this game leaves me very disappointed. I don't know if it's some esoteric way they do things that leaves the game so half-assed but the low effort approach was not for me. I honestly still don't even know what the heck I was expected to do other than waste my own time searching for anything that isn't a slog to get through.

Wrought Flesh is a bizarre first-person action RPG that turns biological modification into one of its central gameplay mechanics. Developed by Miziziziz and published by Deep Root Interactive, the game combines fast shooting, exploration, character building, and body horror inside a deliberately surreal science-fiction world. Its modest scale is immediately offset by an unusually strong identity. Instead of following familiar RPG conventions built around armor pieces and traditional equipment, progression revolves around harvesting organs from fallen creatures and installing them inside your own body. You play as a Gajeshian Cultist, an unusual being created from the remains of ancient saints. Sent to the partially terraformed world of Chrisembourgh, your primary assignment is to track down and eliminate a specific target. The premise provides enough direction to keep the adventure moving without overwhelming the player with exposition. Much of the setting's appeal comes from discovering its strange inhabitants, creatures, locations, and underlying culture firsthand. Religious imagery collides with alien biology and dark humor, producing an atmosphere that can feel unsettling one …
