  This game has very nice pixel art animations, world building, and exploration. The combat can take some gettin' used to when it comes to timing the enemy strikes. Overall, it's a very nice effort from Fair Pixel. Gameplay here: https://youtu.be/kuEoDe77Q58

  Amazing pixel art! An interesting style combination of mythology and dieselpunk. A bit of Metropolis. Hardcore, the way I like it

  I've been waiting for this game for a while, and it really made my day to finally be able to play it, even if it is still incomplete. I've got a list of notable things, including a few that I thought might need a bit of work. Mostly good stuff, though. -I found that the gun mechanics are an absolute joy to use. Aiming is simple and intuitive, and the reload mechanic works well, especially that it makes you conserve and not just spray and pray. I really hope there will be more guns accessible in the full version, as the current two are really excellent. -The enemy design is great, and I really enjoyed learning how to take on each enemy differently. Once you get used to their attack and movement patterns, it's fairly straightforward to defeat them, but never too easy. The enemies also all seemed appropriately unique, and I never got tired of fighting any single enemy. -The block action works well on certain enemies, but on some attacks it isn't effective at all. This is fine, but it might be nice to know which attacks can be blocked and which cannot. -The area layout is pretty intuitive, and I never really got lost or didn't know what to do next. -The puzzles are adequately difficult, requiring you to think, but not taking too much time. I like the combination lock puzzles, and the hints for those are well written. -I found jumping and climbing to be a bit clunky. It's still very functional, but in some places I never quite know where to jump from to land safely. -There are quite a few text walls, lore dumps, and things of the sort, especially early on. I don't mind reading through these, but it can get a bit tiring. I like the flashbacks, they do a good job of filling in bits to the story. Maybe they could be implemented a bit more, instead of just text. -Finally, the pixel art is very well done. I have no complaints whatsoever about it, and I think the game looks amazing. Overall, it's a good game. I'm looking forward to the full version, as well as the update coming soon. Good job Fair Pixel, keep up the good work.

  I didn't realize how time flew by while playing this game. Thanks to the developers for the engaging gameplay.

  Cool concept in a beautifully drawn pixel art world, with gameplay that presents a decent challenge. Narrative unfolding like Katana Zero with gameplay akin to a streamlined Salt & Sanctuary just a bit more on rails. So far in EA the movement for me was the least comfortable thing to get to grips with, as seems just a little clunky when jumping (especially between platforms you're not quite sure you can make or not), but strictly speaking this fits perfectly with the narrative. Sliding is the key dodge mechanic but uses a lot of stamina, so blocking can be better to use but is also harder to time correctly. Pick ups and fuel stations are spread just about right for this kind of game, and encourage the player to continue exploration (as opposed to suiciding after a particularly tricky combat for example, and ruining immersion). All controls seem consistent, and present the player with direction to approach combat (especially with careful use of the environment), as well as options to utilise once the learning curve for each skill is nailed down. In terms of gameplay, combat is well balanced presenting a challenge without too much repetition/failure. Puzzles are well designed and logical, and drive the player to explore and unravel additional secrets should they choose. I'd like more of the dream/flash-back sequences telling the story, and enjoyed the idea of the player controlling the progression of these scenes in places. All seems to be coming together nicely, looking forward to the next chapter.

  This game is really great so far. Its kind of like a Flashback/Prince of Persia type of timing game to an extent, but balanced back a little towards action platformer. Overall I'm happy with my purchase, even though we need more content badly before the withdrawals kick in. Really good atmosphere and general art direction with the throwback 2D 16-bit style. The puzzles are pretty good platformer fare, they are medium difficulty, but the fighting is fairly hard, mainly because you need to learn the timings, as you will be punished severely for each mistake. I think the developers have done a great job with the playable levels, they are certainly polished product that doesn't feel "early access." If it looks fun to you, there's a good chance you will be happy with your purchase!

  So I only have about 20 minutes in the game so far so I can't fairly judge the game either way just yet, however, I did want to just post that this works perfectly fine on Steam Deck as far as I can tell. I will give a true opinion a few hours in, but just wanted to let others know in case you were looking for a decent travel game.

  That's an amazing 2D adventure game in a very unsual even exotic setting. In a combination of simple puzzles and challenging fights, it tells you a story of a swift falling of a developed civilization through the eyes of talented scientist who managed to save himself moving his consciousness to a robot body. The game features with an amazing pixel art, so that you can learn and enjoy every piece of space finding different details that will reveal how the world looked like before the apocalypse and now. True attention to detail - a sign of love and passion of the development team. I strongly recommend you to try the game and support the developers

  Amazing aesthetic, visual storytelling and with worldbuilding full of intrigue Combat is challenging enough and can seriously catch you off guard once you got overconfident Some minor gripes with the common use of ambush, forcing you to immediately expel Impulse Charge after picking up or risking huge damage without it to save for later. Definitely hyped for what comes next.
