Really fun so far, and well worth the $3 I paid. If you're having issues launching this fixed it for me. Right click on the game in you library. Go to Properties. Click on general. Paste this in launch options. cmd /c "set OPENSSL_ia32cap=:~0x20000000 && %command%"

It was on sale for 3 bucks so I picked it up despite the review saying it doesn't work on win 11 I have win11 and it works fine. Just wanted to throw that out there. Seems pretty fun so far

IF at sale - positive and buy IF for full price - negative and avoid PROS + most of the time it is alot of fun + unique gameplay + unique story + amazing and fun narator + non-missable achievements (easy and fun 100%) CONS - Camera and controls can be atrotious at times, which make hectic situations and bossess extreamly frustrating when your shark moves and shoots in some stupid unwanted way, or when your camera dosnt look in the direction you want - While technically the different shark evolutions can be mixed together, in practice, if you dont use specific full sets for the right type of content, the game will become much harder and slower (it will drag on travel time, it will drag on fights, etc). This is most visible during the early game where the game drags on because you dont yet have the correct sets unlocked, and so you move slow, and the fights are hard and long. - multiple Unreal Engine crashes NEUTRAL ° reasonably short ° DLC is signifficantly harder, so full clear of the base game is near required

Incredible game. You’re a shark with electric powers eating rich people on yachts. Peak cinema. Unfortunately, the game also thinks crashing is a feature. One second I’m terrorizing the bay, next second—desktop. Guess even my shark needs a break. Still stupidly fun. Would be 5 stars if it didn’t keep passing out mid-bite. ⭐ 4/5 – Less crashing, more thrashing please.
