Select your weapon, your gadgets and then your play style as you enter ready to take down all the enemies patrolling the level. You can either go in guns blazing, with a mad desire to re-colour the walls red or take a more delicate approach as you sneak your way around the level avoiding detection.

An indie game with untapped potential that is no longer active

Unfortunately, this game has not been under development for a long time. I noticed this when the developer announced that they had stopped working on it.

Visually, the game resembles Superhot, but without the time-slowing mechanic. In terms of gameplay, it is similar to Sever Steel, although it lacks epic music and the ability to destroy objects. It can be considered a sandbox game, as you can choose the map where you want to kill dummies. However, the AI of the bots is quite basic. They tend to rush towards you if they notice you, and rifleman bots may engage in simple left-right movements while shooting — that's the extent of their intelligence.

The game features three basic modes:

  1. Kill everyone on the map.
  2. Kill everyone without being noticed (essentially a stealth mode).
  3. Survival.

There is a workshop available where you can download additional maps and modes, which might extend your playtime in the game.

Nevertheless, despite its shortcomings, it is actually quite enjoyable to play. Your character can perform parkour moves like sliding and wall jumps, and the inclusion of a grappling hook in the loadout adds an interesting aspect to the gameplay.

Speaking of loadouts, the screenshot below …

Speaking of loadouts, the screenshot below showcases all the available equipment. The gadgets are quite fun to use, such as toxic gas, a drone (which is primarily useful in stealth scenarios), a pistol with a suppressor (also useful for stealth), and more.

Completing all the maps would take approximately one to two hours, so there isn't a great deal of content to keep you entertained (unless you explore the workshop).

The music in the game is static, with only two melodies—one for when enemies are alerted and another for when they are not. It becomes repetitive and dull after about 40 minutes.

In conclusion, I do not recommend purchasing this game. If you're interested in trying it out, I suggest finding a way to download it from another source. It's quite unfortunate that the developer abandoned this game, as it has its enjoyable moments.
