(version 5.1.1) This is an early access game but I absolutely love it. It feels like a homage to Resident Evil 1 and Parasite Eve 2. Movement is appropriately slow-paced given it's a survival horror game and the action aspect is lovely. Stomping on the heads of the infected, blasting them apart with a shotgun and axing through them is just so satisfying. The main story is pretty short and incomplete but there are definitely challenges to keep you busy the first playthrough. The next playthroughs are significantly shorter if you remember what you need to do, though there is the aspect of costume collecting that keeps you coming back. The challenge modes are fun and again, gives you more costumes as rewards, but it's the gameplay and action that keeps you hooked. There's definitely room for improvement. The polish is missing at times, and some areas feel awkward and clunky, particularly the weak wall areas. The areas where you need to run and jump, or roll through a hazard can be particularly frustrating. Overall though, this is a solid survival horror game and I look forward to the updates and I really hope this game ends up being a finished product.
