This game is very unique and individual, which is odd to say knowing from the outset that it is so derivative and inspired and its inspirations are known clearly. I am very happy with it for how little it is worth and for how it is made by only one person. I have heard people say they are "bored" with it or find it to have not much content past, say, the first ten to fifteen hours, which is frankly insane to me because people give much shorter games with much higher asking prices much higher regards within that same exact time-frame. The mods are fine, technical fixes and QoL additions mainly, most mod creators are very stupid though, and you can't trust them with a similar degree of creative conscience and overhead as you can the sole developer. I love its visuals, the edge detection is such an odd choice for an omnipresent visual effect on top of its low resolution and volumetric fog everywhere that catches everything you do. I love the normals on the helmet's visor, They're low-res and interpolated really ugly but it makes me laugh. The sound design is likely the best aspect of the game, and including VoIP in that decision and affecting it in as many ways as possible is more than just for making funny jokes, it's incredibly communicative and immersive and really makes you feel that separation when it happens. I will eagerly watch its continued development even after the flavor-of-the-month hype dies down
