The trailer intrigued me making me wanting to try this game out. I wanted to give this game a fair chance, but right now this is a buggy mess with gamebreaking bug. I am one hour in, at the VI department. stuck with a bunch of android robots and the game wouldnt let me continue. There's nothing else I can do, looked everywhere for at least 15 mins. Simply stuck with no further instruction. Given this is an indie game, I can overlook the somewhat amateurish voice acting (I have a feeling this game is either made by an African or Chinese company ), I can overlook the bad coding ( 30fps on a RTX 3090 Kingpin, with DOOM 3 era graphics ). But I cannot overlook at gamebreaking bug unable to allow me to progress further into the game. Some more bugs I've encountered : 1. Picking up ammo while you don't have a gun equipped makes the ammo you'e picked up disappear. 2. Saving the game after killing the robots, if you load the save, all the robots are back and you have the kill them again. And here are some quality of life issues I have with the game: 1. The computer screen in game is way to messy to read the emails. Each computer screen has very complicated desktop background, and the color blends with the email font in white, making it VERY hard to read. 2. the teammate AI is kind of horrible, they are not smart enough to shoot enemies that are around them. 3. Teammates will keep blocking you near doorways and tight corridors. ============== So, too bad, I bought this knowing it's indie and had expected some level of roughness. I was willing to find out how I am going to evacuate the survivors, I was even hoping to play this game multiple times to see what different branching options there are, but given the state of gamebreaking bug in this game right now, I'm going to have to refund this game. Not recommended in the current state. The devs need to quality control this game way more before releasing it. If dev ends up fixing the gamebreaking bugs, I may buy the game again. So here's hoping.

A nice concept but it currently suffers from some major flaws: -The optimisation is very bad. Very very bad. Major pop-in It suffers from the classic Unreal lighting problem. Some sizing down of the map could help, the assets are clearly very intensive. Also, for some reason, the visual options dont get saved between loadscreens? -The voice acting strongly needs a second pass -For some reason, the gun models are very bad. Far be it for me to say 3D modelling is easy but, like, Millenia was able to make much more convincing game models for fallout new vegas of all games. Also, the hands don't hold on to one very well. Especially bad with the glock.

The game had me early on when conversing with our crew mates. This presented dialogue options. Even tho the voices are most likely AI, i appreciate that some form of voice over work is there. They sound natural enough. better than text to speech. The issues arise after a distress call. I couldnt manage to pick up any weapons beside a glock. I also couldnt interact with a door's "unlock/lock" menu. It wouldnt work. Couldn't get past the early part. That's a bti sad as I was lookin forward to seein' how the combat section would play out. Still gonna check it again for updates. Gameplay Impressions: https://youtu.be/2eZomrHe9Hg
