Let me start off by saying I had high hopes and REALLY wanted to like the game.
It started off on a high note but sadly got worse and worse as the game progressed. In the end, I couldn't get myself to finish the game.
The frustrating segments I could handle at first but they got worse and worse. Encounter an enemy that's presented as a boss or mini-boss of a level? You're gonna see it every second fight now. Not only that, but you might even get to fight a couple like that, back to back. WITH the added bonus of even more annoying enemies spammed in your way, so instead of focusing on what's important you get ganged up on and have to dance around the arena roll dodging everywhere.
Unlike a good few other Beat 'em Ups, there's very little you can do in the way of crowd control. Very little in the way of combos too.

Classic story of souped up cowboys versus vampires in the 1800s. It was almost perfect.
Over the top, just the right amount of bloody, your punches had a good feeling to them.
The cutscenes weren't that bad either.

This game gives you a lot of gadgets and powers throughout. Maybe too many. It became hard keeping up with the keybinds, and true to fashion there wasn't a "move menu" to go back and check what you're really capable of.
I used to think some were overpowered 'till I got later in the game and got spammed on like I mentioned in the first paragraph.
Another fault of the game, and you can form your own opinion on this, is that it is insanely linear. Climbing, vaulting, or even falling down ledges can only be done at marked areas as a means of progressing the level.
Environment interactivity is very low; you cannot shoot glass bottles or the loads of ambient skittering spiders. Everybody feels different about details like these but to me it makes this game feel like the bare legal minimum of what a game can be.

As someone who's subconsciously avoided this for the better part of a decade...

Damn, it IS that good

It's a blast.

Starts off slow but once you get the hang of it, you become a powerhouse.
The formula reminds me of Left 4 Dead quite a bit; sure, this game's not got many missions now but base L4D2 started off quite small too.
Looking forward to the future updates cause I am having quite a blast with the missions currently given!

I playtested this game too. It's nice to see everything come to fruition.

The game was pretty fun and had a great style. it had a unique idea of capture the flag but with the idea of stealth. You had to disguise as NPCs to blend in and infiltrate the enemy's base whilst stopping the enemy from doing the same. Then alarms went off and you all exfiltrated.

Unfortunately... it is still a multiplayer game with no solo play components at all. So with the dev team shut down and support finished after just little over a year, you're looking at a dead game averaging a dozen people at BEST globally.
Kinda sad how this cookie crumbled.

Great way to mod the Serious Sam HD games or for a first playthrough with a bunch of QoL and fixes from the Steam Workshop

Fun until it's not, obviously
The ♥♥♥♥ is this difficulty curve?

What really got me is the randomness of when objects/props will let you ram through like a breeze versus when they will send you spinning out from first place into 8th. Makes races past a certain point in the game feel more like a gamble than anything, but really the ♥♥♥♥♥♥ kind of gamble.

It's truly a product of its' time, made for you to endlessly replay each track 'cause it's only game on your PC.

It's a fun game. Promising, of course, but not perfect yet.
The best way to enjoy myself here was to turn down all the power drain / subsystem micromanagement stuff that would have you otherwise spending all the money you make trucking on those truck systems. Now you can focus on the fun part - hauling in a space rig.
