Still in early access, but the first full chapter was excellent. It's a retro shooter that gets pretty much everything right. At first I wasn't a huge fan of how BROWN the game is. Pretty much every color is a variant of brown. While it doesn't make the game the prettiest looking shooter, it does work very well with the sound design to create a very effective atmosphere. It can get pretty spooky at points, especially with the end boss of chapter 1. The gameplay is pretty great, all the guns feel pretty good, except the submachine gun which sounds a bit too quiet and is not particularly accurate. The level design is good, and it gets better as it goes on. Especially in early levels, it can get a tad annoying trying to figure out where to go, especially given everything is brown. It could help if important switches were easier to see. Movement is really fast, which compliments the great enemy variety and aggressive ai. Overall, a very solid retro inspired shooter. I look forward to seeing how the game progresses. The start of chapter 2 is very promising.
