Watched your playthrough, and am very appreciative of the feedback! Although I've noticed that you have some sort of "skill issue" with our game ;), thanks to you we noticed the importance of feedback to the player!
P.S. Did you know that you can heal in the game? (Its shown above in the controls). Might give you an edge to beat the game next time :)
Haha Gotcha! Everyone in the chat was confused as the level is too hard. Glad there is healing in the game.
I will debate back that the "skill issue" is because the aiming keeps "wavering" lol. if the reticle holded still, I would be clicking heads lol.
Please keep going with your cinematic. We all love them <3
I will keep playing more indie games so stay tuned ;)
