I've been following this game's production since its inception, and what it became is absolutely stellar for such a small, passionate team. My steam playtime is deceptive - I've put quite a few more hours into the alpha and beta.

The style is cool, the combat is slick, the music absolutely bangs, and the story is surprisingly deep. It's an absolute blast to play if you like challenging combat, and the action blends with stealth in very unique and satisfying ways.
-The fighting animations and finishers make combat extremely satisfying
-Stealth is more used to get an advantage in combat - ambushing more often than avoiding altogether.
-The gear system is fun, allowing you to scavenge and upgrade pieces of armor that offer a wide range of unique effects for all sorts of styles of play.
-The level design is intelligently done, each floor changing slightly with each run and offering different obstacles requiring clever use of gadgets.
-The boss fights are excellent, unique and challenging in ways that keep you believing that they are beatable, rather than being frustrating.
-There's very nice environmental storytelling if you pay attention, as well as some interesting lore tidbits to find here and there.
-The ending is VERY cool.

I cannot recommend it enough.
