In case you don't remember, this is the speedrunning card based movement shooter (what a delightful word salad that was) that had a very cool trailer a while ago. It is coming from Ben Esposito the creator of Donut County.
The demo is a part of Steam's Next Fest and after playing through the first chapter I think I'm in. The on-boarding is great. They slowly introduce the mechanics, while still giving you a lot of freedom to mess around and see what works. As you replay the short levels trying to get better times, you unlock "Insight" which can unlock level specific perks like a hint system showing you ways you might get through the level faster which I think is a real smart addition to this sort of game.
I was worried it would be overwhelming, but it seems really smartly crafted and replaying levels is quick and engaging. I didn't spend too much time on the story stuff because I wanted to jump in and see if I enjoyed the gameplay part, but it is fully voice-acted which is a plus.
Anyone else checked this out?
