Nearly perfect! Oozes style and relentless energy.
The procedurally generated levels don't do the game any favours sadly as difficulty spikes up and down seemingly at random. The drumbeat keeps you energised and nudges at you to move fast and loose but the levels sometimes favour a slow and steady approach. I feel like a curated hand made levels could have solved these issues.
Still, it's just an observation, I didn't ran into a wall I didn't manage to solve after some thinking or some sleep.
Ape Out resonated with me a couple levels in when I realised my mercy is a weakness that these easily breakable humans will exploit. If I wanted out I needed to be primal, a force of nature - My violence was justified.
It's a clever design that contrast meta games like Hotline Miami or Super Hot that belittle you for relishing the carnage.
Great game, great lenght
