In case you skipped the explanation, once you get the red orb, you'll need to press Z to stun (when they're opaque) then X to attack, then S to absorb them. When enemies start to back up to swoop down on you, immediately back up so you can hit them their angle of descent isn't that sharp, so you'll need to get a good distance between you two. If it's not obvious, enemies become fully opaque when they're vulnerable to attack. Great demo overall though, looking forward to more Luckily though, you can skip all of it without any actual detriment towards your ability to play the game effectively, etc.įinally, there are some bugs, but this is a demo release of course, and he's actively working on fixing them. The storyline at the beginning is fine for me (and shows a bit of nudity, so don't skip it if you want to see that), but I suspect for people who aren't super into storyline-based stuff, it might be a bit long.
The artwork is even better than it was in Xenotake, and that's saying something, as are the animations he's especially improved/changed stuff up in the facial expressions department since then, so yeah, awesome job there! The gameplay is a bit frustrating at times, definitely one of those 'actually a challenge to play' games, but it's definitely possible to get the hang of it after a little while. Really quality demo that's got great artwork, animation, so forth.
