You should be able to just jump and then dash at the top of your jump to clear the gap. If you can't jump that high, try redownloading the demo. Someone earlier had a bug like that happen and redownloading fixed it.
This game. This f***king game. Is INCREDIBLE. It's a shame it ended so soon! I want so much more of this game! It's a love letter to Doom + Quake. It sees what they did and takes a bit from them without being a redundant doom clone. And the parry mechanic?! AH I'M IN LOVE. I'm ASHAMED that I can't pour more money into this INCREDIBLE SHOOTER!
just finished the demo, and i gotta say, that was amazing. that was a good old fast paced retro style shooter. i will definitely be looking forward to the full game
Would with out a second thought this would be on my list of top five games I've played, kinda wish you could keep the glowing skulls as melee weapons and pick up the swordmachine's sword. (possibly in a second boss fight to make it so you don't get two weapons in one fight.) Edit: the secret level made it so this game became the only game I know of that makes you feel like a badass one moment and then a scared child in a Walmart the next.
This game kicks so much ass, incredible. Can't wait for the full thing! The coin flip mechanic rocks, pulling it off in the middle of a fight feels so good. Great soundtrack, great gameplay, cool visual style, all around just a damn fun time. My arms are still kinda shakey from all the adrenaline.
Edit: One piece of criticism I do have though is the cerberus boss fight. I really like the moment discovering you have to fight two of him at once, but his moveset felt a little unfair at times.
Using the coin flip mechanic is the coolest goddamn thing I've ever done in a shooter game. And I didn't even realize you can chain multiple coins. Incredible stuff. (I'm in the "Cerberus is way too hard" crowd, for what it's worth.)
The game is awesome, I played it a lot and only now after 3 weeks, I remembered to leave my review, it's fun, addicting, nice looking, filled with secrets that are REALLY satisfiyng to find, and i can't wait to see the rest of this game, if you like first person shooters, fast paced games, and something like doom but faster pacing, difficult, and also fun, download this game. It's also a game you can play when you're mad, because you can destroy everyone you find, and in various ways too, really, ULTRAKILL is awesome and i really recomend you joining their discord server 'cuz there you can follow how this game is still is going to grow even better, and the people there are nice too ^^! so yea!
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAW INCREDIBLE It is a perfect game, the art is so amazing. One of the best games i have played ever. I loved it!! I cant wait for the full game
This is one of the best games I've played. However, for some reason 80% of the time I try to load the game it simply dosn't start up. Over all this is a great game. (Edit: before I was using it on Desktop, but I found out it consistantly works in downloads.)
That sometimes happens when you've been developing your game for long enough that you've become too good at it. The next version of the Prelude will make Cerberus a bit easier on Standard difficulty and the full game will have easier difficulty modes available if it's still too hard.
holy jesus with two shot guns riding a bear, this is possibly the best gun game i've played, and it's also very tough. punching enemies is fun, shooting heads off is fun, and charging death lasers is fun.
i had a fuckton of fun playing this. i would have given a detailed review if i had anything more to add, honestly its just pure fun and the music is kickass too.
had a blast playing it! Only issues was the jump sometimes didnt activate and the punch range is really short, other than that I cant wait fo r the full release
Malicious Faces dont take damage from explosions so if you're trying to use those they're not very effective. The non-boss versions have less health than the boss version.
It was originally that way but was removed for balance reasons. Not much point to the whole health system if you can just run away and hit some bodies a couple times to get your health back.
I love the game and can't wait for the full release. I have one question, how can I reset the prelude to moment where i can select the difficulity? I know that i can change the difficulity i choose in the beginning from easier to harder in level select but how i can change that core difficulity without needing to reistall the whole game?
"Standard" and "Violent" are the only difficulties available in the Prelude. In the full game you will be able to pick from any of the difficulties in that menu.
The blood mechanic does not always work. A lot of the time you can be practically showering in the blood coming down off of enemies or bosses and getting zero health for it. The guardian of hell is really really bad for this and you basically have to be hugging their ankles point blank to get any health even when the blood clearly spraying all over you. This is really bad because the visuals make you misjudge where the health zone you need to be in actually is.
Currently it's a sphere collider rather than actually being based on where the blood sprays to make sure you can't get fucked over by RNG. I'll take a look at tweaking it, though.
this game is amazing ill 100% buy the full game, i don't know who is saying its hard but whoever it is doesn't know how to use their abilities , in fact i think you should reduce the dash time.
beat the game in about an hour, was very fun. here is the video i made about it

nah i got it figured out
This game.
This f***king game.

Finished the demo last night, and this is probably the most fun I have had with a shooter in a LONG time. Intense and addicting.
Just played the demo and mighty impressed. Not a huge fan of fast paced shooters but this one might actually help me practice my aim lol
every game is different
some gams are slow paced
some are fast paced
the how are you training your aim?
if you still cant aim well in slow paced games

This feels like a much better Brutal Doom, spectacular game!
AMAZING!!!

DAMN THIS GAME IS GOOD!
ceberus is super hard, but the game is very very good.
nice job

"should i download this? it's worth it?"
YES!!!
also, the soundtrack is Godlike!
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAW INCREDIBLE It is a perfect game, the art is so amazing. One of the best games i have played ever. I loved it!! I cant wait for the full game
Same
This is one of the best games I've played. However, for some reason 80% of the time I try to load the game it simply dosn't start up. Over all this is a great game. (Edit: before I was using it on Desktop, but I found out it consistantly works in downloads.)
The game is AMAZING but...why did you have to make the Cerebus boss sooo hard
That sometimes happens when you've been developing your game for long enough that you've become too good at it. The next version of the Prelude will make Cerberus a bit easier on Standard difficulty and the full game will have easier difficulty modes available if it's still too hard.
Thanks!

i had a fuckton of fun playing this. i would have given a detailed review if i had anything more to add, honestly its just pure fun and the music is kickass too.
Those will be fixed in the full version.
also on the one-machine army lvl why are the heads so hard to kill
the first time they appeared they were easy to kill but now they are WERRY HARD what am i soppused to do? parry the gigantic laser?
i like the game and all but we need health bars for bigger enemys like the giant heads and when i parry his little bullets they dont hit...
Parried projectiles will go to where you're currently aiming.
Malicious Faces dont take damage from explosions so if you're trying to use those they're not very effective. The non-boss versions have less health than the boss version.
the swordsmachine mode breaks
no health bar
no indication
also game is a bit too hard
maybe... make it a bit e a s y e r?
There will be easier difficulty modes in the full game.
The Swordsmachine breaking I'm aware of but have no idea what causes it yet. The fight does still work, but you won't know how much health he has.
Oh OK thanks
cerberus is hard
now cerberus is a disgrace XD i didn't even fight him in violent mode yet, i'm scared
great idea and well made 10/10 a cool little detail could be that when you shoot a dead body and it explodes it heals you a little
It was originally that way but was removed for balance reasons. Not much point to the whole health system if you can just run away and hit some bodies a couple times to get your health back.
thats fair man gimme five ✋
i love this game i just wish it has controller support
Maybe for the full release, but no promises.
can you make a Mac version
I'll look into it.
I love the game and can't wait for the full release.
I have one question, how can I reset the prelude to moment where i can select the difficulity? I know that i can change the difficulity i choose in the beginning from easier to harder in level select but how i can change that core difficulity without needing to reistall the whole game?
"Standard" and "Violent" are the only difficulties available in the Prelude. In the full game you will be able to pick from any of the difficulties in that menu.
oh, ok. Thx, i thought i just fucked myself by not choosing higher difficulity
Makes me feel very skilled and cool while playing 9/10 definitely recommend it
great.

This demo alone is seriously amazing! GREAT JOB!
