Man, i liked it, like i was shutting my radio and keeping the lantern off so that they wouldn't get me!

I guess that if there was something to gripe (complain) abou the game would be the graphic quality doesn't let you get a more inmersive experience, aside from that, i think that there is nothing bad about the game itself

I get it. They want to show how much they tried to make a 3D ambientation on a 2D game (2.5D)... Much like Walt Disney's 50's projects. Am i right?

I can see this coming but i need to confirm it.

Is there any connection between final response and leaden sky? I mean... Besides that they use a quite similar graphic motor (for not saying the same LMAO).

Why is Kyle so massive in size in comparission with Joanna? Not like there was something bad with that but is quite...Strange? I even can't believe what i'm saying. Like if that wasn't normal but at the same time it is a very rare case... Mmm. It lets you thinking on the "Why?"

Lets get out of this absurd topic. Look, a photo of a kitty:

¡You responded me! Man, i feel like my head is going to blow.

But first, i think i need to urgently react about what you said about the AI.

You may think your game does not have a good AI (lie) but an example you can't say "that is not good" is the indie game called "12 is better than 6"

if the enemy sees you, you are [swear word of your choose] and while all of the guns have a slow bullet velocity (for the standards of wild-west ammunitions) if you get just a little overwhelmed or make a little mistake, you are dead.

¿Not enough? No problem. Intravenous, another 2D game, has a pretty similar example with the difference that if just one and one enemy sees you, then go making a hole in the cemetary because you are sovereignly FUCKED. Just a little tiny 9x19 mm Parabellum SubSonic (less than 340 meters per second) can let you with 1 little percentage of your total life and keep in mind, most of guards have sub-machine guns, assault rifles and shotguns.

If you feel that is not enough then take a look to enemy's reactions:

If they hear shots, they'll go to the place of the sounds and start lurking for you.

If the see blood traces, they will follow them till the found the dead body.

If they see a corpse (alive or dead) they will try to wake him up (efortless when they are dead) and start looking for you.

If the lights start to flicker, they'll pay attention for a couple of seconds and then proceed.

If they lights are turned off (with the buttons or the fuse box), they will try to turn them on again.

Assuming that you think that's not enough, then take a look at your game. If a merc sees you, he will alert his buddies and take cover, getting out only if you lean over it or if you are tu much time behind it. It doesn't stop there if the electric monsters (i do not remember their names) see you, they will start WALKING towards you. If you don't attack with your firearms, they will know that you are planning to use your knife so when they are close to you, they'll suddenly sprint and (in most cases) cath you off guard. Not like is easy to attack them with a knife without being hurt anyway but it's quite interesting.

Letting the AI topic apart let's talk about the games you took inspiration from:

Stalker: I could see that one coming and what a message it leaves...

Metro: I'am not so sure about what metro you say (2033, Last Light, Exoddus) but if there is a thing that i'am well aware is that i love metro, and knowing that, i may start liking a bit more the 3D project. Knowing that you took some inspiration about it. Will there be sections where you can shoot lights so they can't see you? Maybe ocassions where you can pardon their lives and leave your enemy's unconscious (i wouldn't because they are just a bunch of assholes... the mercs)?

You aren't discarding the 2D project? That's great to hear!

You may feel a little mad because of the long reply so i'll put a little bit of an interesting thing about your country (it was poland. Right?)

The Blyskawica submachine gun was the World-War-2 version of the Scorpion Evo 3 (at least for the standards of the firearms at that time). It was a polish mass-produced, cheap and reliable pice of gear and boy if i see even a newborn baby with this, i would poop my boxers and start begging for my help. My god if it was even easy to produce because of the using of screws. It was like taking the best things of an MP40 and a STEN jointed together.

I'am not so surprised about Poland making very good weapones. Take a look at the PM-63 for example. What a system of fire and what a portability. I bet that Harry Houdini could hide a PM-63 in it's throat.

Best of the PM-63 is that even on it's 9x19 parabellum version, it is still subsonic. Can this get better?

(i apologize if i overwhelmed you with the message)

¿FPS? I think i need to talk about this

There is no surprise that FPS games are one of the most distributed all over the world but the roots of the shooters are on 2D. You may feel offended for what i just said, so lets take an much more mediocre example that actually went very well (if you ask me)

Guns, gore and cannoli, a videogame about american/italian mafia in 2D that emphasized the action of NOT using a mouse and playing with your keyboard. The game was a success and because of that, they made a sequel also in 2D but this time you had to use the mouse to point the gun.

What i'm trying to say is that WE (not only me, WE as in multiple) will not feel like the games is getting worse because of it being in 2D and not in 3D. Super Mario Bros is in 2D and yet i know no one that hates that videogame.

Obviously, you are not supossed to take this as a "make the game in 2D or else" but rather as a "it ain't bad that it was on 2D". Wether you do what you do with your wonderful videogame is up to you.
