Jan. 2026
A surprisingly polished first title from RESURGENT that is heavily inspired by shooters from the mid 2000's. The worst thing I can say about it is that the story has some very corny writing that's trying to emulate Remedy's tone in the first two Max Payne games with a revenge story reminiscent of John Wick. The setup is that you're one of the world's deadliest corporate mercs who is suddenly the target of a massive bounty. The worldbuilding is solid otherwise but expect lots of heavy handed metaphor in-between missions. But the gameplay is where it's at, the AI has a tendency to clump up together rather than avoiding piles of bodies, but the shooting feels excellent. The arsenal doesn't have anything you haven't seen before (Rifles semi and auto, smgs, pistols, and shotguns) but they all feel responsive and powerful, with good animations too. Stealth is highly suggested and pretty solid, with a light and sound indication system that helps you stay hidden. Get it on sale if you're that worried about the quality of the content, but I'd highly recommend this even at full price. Took me back to a time where games were more worried about building a solid experience rather than a formulaic platform for microtransactions.

Since I feel like I'm one of the only people who've beaten this game. Just going to post a review here. Game is a Solid 6 - 7 out of 10 - Gameplay is decent, AI can be whacky but you're able to stealth you're way through with patience (if the AI doesn't decide to just randomly see you through walls) and especially once you acquire a silencer for one of your weapons. Wish there was more weapons to choose from though. Last two missions feel rushed, can kind of tell they were just trying to push this out and add collectibles for a replay value. - Graphics are pretty good, art style is nice, performance is a hit or miss in some moments. - I can say that peoples frustrations with AI is valid, but some are exaggerated, you can do stealth through these missions to completion until that last couple missions where you're supposed to go all out. - Story is okay at best, dialogue goes on way too long and sometimes feels like skit from Caleb City which would be great if this was satire. Lastly some dialogue can be very corny. There are some times where people cut each other off which is annoying as hell and had some moments where cutscenes would randomly skip. Overall it's an ok experience with a lot of polish that needs to be done and fix some of the stealth systems in the game that can cause a lot of frustration. Spent around 6 hours to beat this game which is pretty decent for the asking price and has a Horde mode if you want feel like playing the game more.

Guy wanted to prove that indie devs can publish decent game with enough time and effort. I can confidently say that he did prove just that. Even thought there are some issues, like fps drops during gunfight sequences, and going thought the tedious first two levels. The overall package of the game is polished and earns the asking price. The art style and gunplay is decent. The world and story was actually interresting. It has that cyberpunk corpo theme. Honestly, for a first game with a small team. You did good BigFry

People really need to remember this isn't some new AAA team that stole 50 guys from Activision, EA, Ubisoft, and Rockstar. It is a small budget team proving asset flippers wrong. And they did that. All the bugs or similar have been getting fixed in real time on their discord which is great to see. Any complaint I could write can just be summarized by "It isn't perfect" but I'd be lying if I said this isn't a good start and GREAT foundation to build off of for these first time devs.

Saw some big ginger bloke promoting it on YouTube, so I thought I'd give it a try. Nice atmosphere, Satisfying gun-play with satisfying ragdoll kills, Cool attachment system, The main character does yap a bit, Enemy AI does need improving, as they don't seem to hear gunshots with unsuppressed weapons.
