I've been seeing screenshots on tumblr for so long I didn't know you got this far in development. SO excited!! Are you open to adding any more music? I would love to make a song for the game!! My name on spotify is Lucien Gray.
I'm still trying to figure out how much music I need and how all the artists will contribute, I'll keep you in mind and hit you up if/when anything happens.
The more I play the more I love it!
Is there a way to set the controller's right stick camera movement to inverse? There should be options for the X and Y axes. When playing with a controller, I always use inverse directions: pushing the right stick to the right, turning the camera to the left, and pushing to the left turns the camera to the right. Same with the Y axis: pushing up to look down and pushing down to look up (inverse Y axis). Without these options, it's unplayable with a controller for me.
can't even shoot midair let alone 360 noscope
twitter cred speedrun slop with a slightly newer aesthetic foil wrap
recolor this to vaporwave visuals and it will be the exact same game
congrats on bein tha first hater

Yo love this game finally beat the challenges but i was trying to use the mega bullet to fly over to the demon collection chip hanging above the party area.Doding is tough but i think its do able- we did it the easy way at least by coming over the edge. hope u add this demo to your site! also im excited for more {i'd love to make some custom maps n such myself in this its fcking rad}
Can't wait to see the whole game ! A weird mix between Orbo's Odyssey and Cruelty Squad, with a NAILED sewerlsvt Y2K aesthetic, this WILL be a classic.
this comment fucking sucks
killer 7 but with a 500 caliber
sick game i truly do feel like an xXxMLGSniperxXx
This game has a TON of potential. Even ignoring the in-your-face alternative early computer depression aesthetics, there is a LOT to like here.
The movement is extremely in-depth, but you get generally get by with the most basic maneuvers if you're a scrub (which is ok!).
It captures a lot of what I love about 2d and 3d platformers, and finds a uniquely satisfying middleground in between "I've been playing this game for 6 years straight and can beat every level in 2 seconds" and "I've never played a 3d platformer before but somehow I'm doing things." In some ways, the movement reminds me of a mixture of Super Mario Sunshine, and the golden age of Kirby games. You get a lot of the pro-only strats that make newcomers freak the hell out, while still keeping the base movement simple enough for most players to get around.
There are moves that I didn't even know existed until I already completed the demo, and played it again to try 100%ing. This game does a fantastic job at truly capturing a great sense of speed without it being overwhelming.
There are also a ton of creative things you can do with a gun in a precision-like platformer like this. The game already hones some of this potential, making a lot of movement gun-based, but I can't wait to see it taken a step further in future content.
My only worry is that, when the game DOES get more content, some puzzles may devolve into "shoot everything and pray that something works" simulator. However, the game already does a great job at showing what is and isn't shootable; the team(?) seems to have a great grasp at teaching the player what to expect. If you think something can be shot, it probably can. If you think it can't, it absolutely can't.
I also very much enjoy the "vibe" I get from this game. Not just aesthetically, but a lot of the demo's level design feels very much like downloading random Gold Source maps and just seeing what they could possibly BE. The best way I can describe this game is like... "witnessing faux-nostalgia through a modern capitalist lens."
And while I feel like this kind of aesthetic can get overdone and old very quick, 5CC does a good job and setting itself apart by not playing too hard into tropes and boring stereotypes. Some people may want to call this game's art "cruelty squad-adjacent," but I feel like that really sells short the amount of work put into this game. It's very clearly not a clone, by any means, once you get into the game, and get a feel for what it's trying to accomplish.
Save for some weird difficulty spikes (the pivot level. holy fuck. iykyk), and some lighting-related readability issues (dark lighting + dark textures make some areas intensely hard to parse), this game may be up there with some of the great modern 3d platformers in due time.
I just truly hope this game gets finished some day. There are too many fantastic games that get caught up in featurecreep and development hell; please don't let this be one of them.
epic... whats ur angelfire...
