Hard Reset

Has anyone tried this one yet?

It's pc only gameplay is supposed to be based on late 90's shooters, so none of this cover mechanics and levels filled with chest high walls, or regenerating health and other such stuff.
Apparently there's very little plot, just lots of things to shoot.

And there's a free demo you can download (doing it now )

Ok I've played through the demo now, it's disappointingly short, not even the whole of the first level.
It's about 80% of the first level, which is fairly short anyway and because it not the whole first level you cannot see what your end score was for it. (It really wouldn't of been much to do the whole first level)

The weapon system is interesting, but I don't like the models for them and while the way they reconfigure is funky there's not enough to tell which mode your gun is in.

The cyberpunk environment is lovely and there's tons of things to blow up, although it feels wrong, I think it's because it's empty of people, just populated by killer robots.

It's a bit fast paced for my liking, with hordes of enemies, reminds me of the first Serious Sam in that respect, the whole why throw 1 enemy at the player when you can throw 3, why throw 3 when you can thrown 30.

Still it was was fan, not sure if I'll get the full game or not
