Holy... cow this is good. Mechanically sound despite being... hilariously generic. You just see this huge dramatic Assassin's Creed-style vista and the low-key dramatic music and... the total lack of detail, lack of colour, rough geometric shapes and it all adds up to... https://youtu.be/w1LdR80JMFA

Love the melee tells, love the feedback, the half-hearted intro... truly, this is a Shadow of... Something.

ADDENDUM: Christ, the vision system feedback, the mantling, the sheer size of the thing! Lastair, please take this as a compliment, but "Gratz Lastair! (Fuck Lastair)".

Man that was hella good. The battle system felt so robust already and there was a ton of content. You didn't half-ass any of this, from the subtle walk-bob to the quest resetting when you die to the alert indicators that actually turn green-yellow-red like the real game! Ace job. I would love to see you do a proper game with that battle system.

All of the little details are so well observed in this. I chuckled when I got to the top of the first tower and it did the camera orbit; and when I unlocked the final skill in the tree.

The level design was also genuinely reminiscent of Shadow of Mordor too.

You did a really good job with this.

This is really impressive. Nice work! I almost believed I was somewhere doing something
