Ok so I just finished the demo and yes YES YESSS this is exactly what I need, I loved all of it, the weopons, the enimes, I do have a complaint that it kinda did the same "your walking in a hall way, then the doors close, boom encounter" witch the first couple times I enjoyed but near the end it kinda got annyoing, the levels are a little tight for my taist. But I had a lot of fun and can't wait to see what this turns into
The concept of mods changing how the shotgun loads is such a simple concept, yet amazing at the same time. I love the effort everyone put into this game and I'm so glad it exists!
PS: Since it has support for 4 mods, and shotgun has pump action and dual barrels, will the other two slots be open for lever action and auto?
Hi, so this is the best new game I've played in ages. The idea of a shooter with a DMC-Style scoring system to encourage replays and high-level play, and the fact that someone has finally gone and done it, with some of the best goddamn combat I've played in any game ever, has me more hyped for this than practically any other upcoming game I can think of. That being said, I'd like to offer up a bit of criticism of the movement system, namely the fact that the slide and the slam are bound to the same button. This is unlikely to be a problem with enough play, but when first learning the game, having a button that can either give you a sudden boost of horizontal momentum, or slam you towards the ground has led to enough deaths from slamming myself into environmental hazards when I wanted to move myself forwards towards an enemy that I feel there's probably a better way to bind the keys so as to not throw first-time players off so hard.
Edit: Would also like to report a bug: In the first/second level, where you are originally introduced to breaking glass, if you bring some enemies from the room immediately before where you are first introduced to breaking glass into the one where you first break glass, they will often fall through the glass into the room below. Not a major problem, but just thought it worth pointing out.
This is incredible, and I cannot wait for the full release of this game. That being said, I want this to be the best game it can be, so I'd like to level my biggest criticism, which is the level design. It's a little samey, and something that bothers me more actually is it suffers from one of my biggest problems with DOOM 2016, and that's that not only is it samey in design, but the look is too similar. My biggest problem with that game was that it was one red room to another, it was nearly all reds and grays, and it got a little grating on the eyes. I loved the parts where you could go outside, that was great, and I think the more aethetic variation there is to the levels while still sticking to the overall look and feel of the game the better. That all being said, it was still an incredible experience and I'm so excitied to buy the full release!
The plan is for each layer of Hell to have a distinct visual style. I do agree the Prelude ended up being too samey and boring though, so once the rest of the game is done I might go back and redo some of it to make it a bit more interesting.
JUst played through the demo and WOOO! Seriously good FUN! Great movement!
I did notice using the pistol with the cointoss, you can jump, look down, toss a coin, shoot and 99% of the time you don't miss the coin. It really made bosses easy. I would just circle strafe, jump, look down, toss and shoot coins. I didn't have to look at the last boss in the demo to even kill it.
Loved every second I played and cannot wait for Early Access.
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.

Just got done with the demo and this is pretty awesome. Very fast paced and challenging!

If you're scanning the comments out of interest just download it. It's an absolute thrill.

Possibly, it will depend entirely on what is fun to play with.

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
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.

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

Awesome
Incredible game. Just the right amount of challenging. Btw, Cerberus isn't that hard if you just keep using him for rege
ultrakill swordsmachine boss fight. hope you guys enjoyhttps://youtu.be/3ZRd_INdONg
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.)
DAMN THIS GAME IS GOOD!
ceberus is super hard, but the game is very very good.
nice job
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.

"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!
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.
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.
