Fun and short. Died a Few times in the process. Well worth an hour or so just for the Bunker area alone. The Game dev probably wont finish it though because of the morons that cry that its buggy when others like myself didnt have an issue with it. There really are times guys where crying can be avoided. Just shut up next time.
i think it is rly early acsess if not needs work but overall rly good
Just no. No options except mouse speed and inverting (not even audio). Clunky Trash, the gun feels like it shoots Nerf darts, enemies die after one hit and are no threat what so ever. The only positives are that it's free and very short.

Unstable game , not optimised - settings won't work ( graphics ) - npc are one shot - this needs a big update..
"Old Roots" is a buggy disaster with a bunch of recycled assets giving this a way better appearance than it deserves. I think this is some kind of high school project or something. A simple horror shooter, and the horror is that someone genuinely thought it would be okay to publish a game this bad where people might see it. Makes you shudder, doesn't it? Pretending to be a kind of DooM ripoff, this switches the hellscape of Hell for the hellscape of Siberia, and yet somehow, it's still worse than both. The game graphics look better than you might expect, but that's just because it looks like some or all of them are "borrowed" from asset stores or wherever. Gamers can tell... and it comes across as insincere. There's also the old adage that those who lack the budget and talent to make their own game assets usually lack the budget and talent to do the rest of the job of game development properly, too. This is "free" enough, at least you won't be expected to spend any more money after you download this, but just because something is free doesn't mean it's good. Even though this is "free", it failed to appeal to the 120 million+ gamers on Steam. SteamDB showed the game peaked at only 5 concurrent players... this is a dismal public reception. This was so bad they couldn't even give it away. Bearing in mind that free games don't add +1 to your game collector count, should you bother adding this to your library and downloading it? Nope. This isn't worth downloading. While this didn't cost me any money up front, I still feel ripped off.
Stuck with game installed keybinding. Player not allowed to change. Options are VERY brief.
The enemies are so pathetic I let one of them kill me because I felt bad for him. The atmosphere is not bad, but the game is a bit choppy and the fleshlight is way too bright. The lighting of the levels is good but the fleshlight ruins it. Some objects are hovering and it is sometimes hard to pick up ammo. Even after all the flaws I just mentioned, I would still recommend it.
