This game has a really cool idea and concept, and in execution it can be rather engaging, however, this game has very much been abandoned for years, with only a few vague posts about it on Twitter about a Steam Deck update and the possibility of getting more content (at the expense of other things), along with the main people who worked on the game (SkyVu) already doing other projects by this point. RocketSnail himself seems to have a hard time managing projects and keeping things in check, usually piling himself with way too many projects which leads to having to jump between them constantly, leaving games that aren't up to a point where they can naturally sustain themselves to stagnate and slowly crumble away while he works on the next project and so on. The servers are almost always dead, and the few times you can get into a game, it's either with friends or with one other random person, leading to a lot of periods where you're stuck in the lobby unable to play any games. The movement at times can be very janky and hard to manoeuvre, and first person firing is very difficult with how much it rotates, and in terms of the characters themselves, in certain maps they can blend way too much into the environment, leading to situations where you genuinely cannot see your opponent unless it's too late, or they just fired in any direction. TL;DR, This game definitely has/had potential and could work if given the time and care, but I wouldn't bother following it, as any future updates will likely be lead with things slowing down to a snail's crawl again or outright abandonment.
