This game is triggering. When I click the game will minimize making it nearly unplayable. There are many times when i am sneaking around and the enemies will spot me. Other times i'll be in an isolated room where enemies wouldn't normally hear me and then when i'm trying to make obstacle jumps enemies will come in randomly. The only way to stop them is to terminate all of the enemies in which you are not sure where they are since they are in random rooms.
I get the premise of the game, but what will really set you on fire is if you die once, you have to reset the whole level. So any enemies you killed, respawn, any progress you made getting keycards reset. This could in theory be a fun aspect, but i didn't find it any bit fun as the problems above, minimizing of the game, stealth seems broken, and then enemies when they turn their heads can be random at times. To be fair sometimes no enemies would come other times they would each run i did. Also to knock an enemy out you have to hit them in the back of the head. The hitbox works *most* of the time but the times it dosen't one guy detects you and all of the other enemy npcs rush to you after a shot. You scramble to run but can't get away. You take the one in front of you in a one on one fight then the other enemies arrive and take you out. If you want to restart any time you're out of luck, as you need to find an enemy to kill you to restart, or hop to the main menu and manually restart the level. At least there is a level select for progression. Aiming is pretty accurate too with the pistol so that's nice. Bloom is a little much as spots but the graphics are really nice and I love the sci-fi techy aspect.

Summary: fix the stealth aspect, hitboxes, and make it so enemies won't come to isolated rooms that they wouldn't normally come to because of pure RNG. If you don't have patience don't play this game as it can be triggering. You can walk everywhere and try to knock enemies out but if the hitboxes don't work then you might as well give up the level since you're more than likely dead. Game has good potential but needs better execution. Really sad to say that because this game has a lot of potential to be a really great game.
