Really disappointed in this one as I really enjoyed Ion Fury. The aesthetic and vibes of the levels are really nice, the switch from a boomer shooter to a half-like in art style and gameplay translated quite well and felt like a natural evolution. But playing it felt very lackluster. Most of the guns didn't feel great, a lot of the level design could get either quite confusing on where to go or just went on for waaaaaaaaay too long. A lot of the combat encounters felt like a chore or just felt like you're swatting off pests. And overall it was just quite boring. Biggest of sads on this one.

I really want to like this, but it is absolutely PLAGUED by bugs that throw you into the air (jumping onto a box, etc), insta-gib you from picking up items, getting stuck on level geometry (especially fences and shipping containers) and simply rediculous balance issues. Most of a level is a boring cakewalk, then it comes to parts that kill you in 1-3 seconds even at full health. Also the guns are generally terrible (the mounted guns I would almost call a trap), health is rare (until it isnt and you find mountains of it when not needed), scripting breaks during quests (ambush by the basketball hoop was a big one), etc etc.

Get it on a steep discount and have VERY low expectations if you must. Imagine it as another Indie/Early Access game (despite full release) and not related to Ion Fury.

Immense fun with a variety of environments, enemies, and weapons.
