Early Access Review
So I want to like this game, I really do, it has a few big problems that make it really hard to enjoy.
Firstly, its a new concept that really works in principal, you kill someone or get killed, get a chance to rewind it. The game itself works in theory. Its okay looking, given the era, I kinda expected better quality given the era where League of Legends, Overwatch, and even freaking fortnite exists.

Problems, 1, really really bad control scheme to start out in my opinion.
2, The game is constantly freezing mid cycle, start of match and end of match
3, The game turns into eseentially 1v1 the moment you encounter a skilled player, I have had matches where it didn't matter what we did in round 1 and 2 because the 3rd rewind is all that mattered, with a good rifle player the game is over.
4, Following up with how it looks, the sounds and whole theme of "IN THE FUTURE" just feels bad and very cringy.
5, Weapons are very very uneven, play 15 games, see who uses lasers.
6, No melee attack, not saying its bad, just should prob give one given how the rifle works
7, The lag, the game lags for some reason, maybe its my PC that can run Overwatch on 60FPS perfectly fine, maybe my wifi sucks but right now the game lags too much.
8, Its too fast but also too slow, the matches are fast don't get me wrong but aiming and flicking feels near impossible in this game and don't get me started on the jumping which is makes it near impossible to know due to lack of feeling weight, the sounds and effects don't feel the match your movements when jumping.
9, The play fields look the same. They're all the same un-inspired futuristic arenas, PLEASE FIX THAT!
10, Aimbotters, fix this please.
tl;dr The game and its idea is great but rn, the controls, designs, and balance(and some anti cheats) are lacking, I'm hoping in a year the game gets better

10. Aimbotting is something that the devs are working on atm, unfortunately it's hard to spot even from a player's perspective, but I am happy to say that in this game aimbot doesn't make you good, both me and a friend went against an aimbotter and beat him. The anticheat is Easy Anti-Cheat, the same as Fortnite and a lot of other games.

(theres a 1k character limit on comments so I had to make it seperate)

7. That could either be your WiFi or your region, if you respond to this with what area you live in it could be helpful. There is some problems with how the game finds servers and matches right now, unfortunately. The devs are working on it though!
8. Aiming and flicking I guess that's either your bad aim or just not used to aiming in this game yet? All the weapons are projectile based so you will have to lead your shots in a lot of situations. The movement is incredibly smooth and fun though, if you're aware there's sliding and slide jumping.
9. I.. really don't understand what you mean about this one. Quantum Arena and Stadium is a little generic arena, but Chronos looks like a factory or something along those lines, Container yard is.. well.. a container yard, and Overpass feels like a skate park.

1. Unfortunately, it really is difficult to compare the graphics of a brand new indie game to triple A companies with millions of dollars for budget.
2. The time it spends rewinding is really convenient as a time to take a deep breath and think about what you have to do next round
3. It is true the third round is the most important, and if you position stupidly and get punished fast your one and twos will quickly be deleted, but what you do on your ones and twos are very important. Being able to have 2 clones on point by loop 3 is an extreme advantage. (from standpoint as top 50 ranked atm)
4. Fair enough ig, that's personal preference
5. It's true that there's really only three weapons, SMG, Shotgun, and Rifle. Some weapons are just conceptually worse than others and they are hoping to change that
6. I know they experimented with melee attacks and I think they had some reason for not implementing it
