I'm starting to suspect that this game might even be real. I can almost taste it. . . Hunger speaking again

Just fired up the beta again after not having played it for about a week—it starts in windowed mode again, so mouse inputs are working normally again (in other words, the game is now playable again).

Guys, this game is feeling really freaking good to play. They seem to have slowed everything down a bit, and now when you hold down the mouse to move your character doesn't fly uncontrollably across the screen (which made anything other than one-click-at-a-time movement useless before). I'd still personally prefer keyboard-based movement, but the mouse movement controls are currently fairly acceptable now. There are a number of improvements to interface and visibility, including highlighting out-of-sight opponents who your character is unaware of and giving an indication when your character has made noise that enemies have detected, and enemy vision cones (as squares on the ground). Stealth actually seems sort of viable now. The audio is great, atmospheric and creepy. Really excellent. I was already getting pumped for this, but man, this is actually maybe going to really be good*! Unbelievable!

(*assuming the game actually gets finished, of course)

If you mention a thread and don't provide the URL to the thread why mention the thread at all?

Taking a job accrues +9 age, and presents you disadvantages to choose from.

Sick, like Darklands.

Ok, I have to chime in with my 2 cents:

I find many indie game names to be beyond terrible, regardless of the quality of the rest of the game. Names like Vagrus (STD???), Aloloth (Trololol?), Encased (Boring?), etc. So why would you go from Copper Dreams (which is actually a GOOD name, evoking Cyberpunk-ish stuff perfectly) to Mechajammer, which sounds really, really dumb?

This. What is this stupid habit of changing decent names into totally shitty ones you can barely remember?

Terminator vibes (if Terminators scanned with their robot dicks)

WTF, I kinda got distracted and wasnt paying attention anymore because of the previous art styles changes, especially that awful hipster colourful art style and then all of sudden, massive incline? Game looks cool as fuck now.

Can we get the 'vapourware' tag removed Infinitron ?

 

[The Wall]

Sure! As soon as the game from twitter gifs is playable
