The verdict
A very short, flashy FPS/slasher with great combat and visuals for a solo dev, but it plays like a paid tech demo for Bright Memory: Infinite. Skip it at full price.
Great for
Players wanting a quick, fast-paced shooter-slasher for a few dollars on sale
Main risk
Only about 30–45 minutes long and feels like a paid demo that ends abruptly

Clunky, slow combat and weak enemy design
Mentioned in ~1 in 4 negative reviews
“You should not have to wait 2 seconds before you can dodge again. EMPs shouldn't take 5 seconds to launch.”

“After clearing all the enemies at a checkpoint, the door sometimes won’t open, forcing me to backtrack to the previous checkpoint to get past it. It also crashes pretty often.”

Incoherent story and rough presentation

Stutter and poor optimization
