Here's Eurogamer review, if you need more thorough description: (

I must say, I suck so much at this ;) If you last more than 60 seconds, that's good. The idea seems simple, but the design is more thoughtful than it looks. Especially when you watch videos like this one:

All in all, it's pretty addictive, it feels like Quake 1 and Dark Souls had a baby. And it's only 5 bucks.

As a fan of both Dark Souls and Quake 1: this feels like neither :P
It sure is fun though.

That looks like one of those stress nightmares you have when you get a fever.

The last minute of the video looks like a big fat NOPE. Otherwise, looks fun.

It does remind me of Quake, in it's colorscheme, sounds and nightmare ambiance. Not really seeing the Dark Souls connection though. Sure it's difficult, but this is more of a bullet hell type thing.

The game never really tells you anything, you die a lot, and get better by repetition and mastering your circle-strafing skills ;) It's not literally Dark Souls and Quake, c'mon.

Sorry but the video looks terrible. Huge empty flat room and dude shooting blood from his hand at flying heads? Err.... skip to 7 minutes, same thing. No thanks.

Looks like a nice arcadey game to play when you got 2 - 15 minutes of free time for some intense schooting.
I like the sounds, Quake really is the first association for it.
I'd like a story mode with levels and stuff as well, but for 5 bucks it looks like an alright deal.
They really should make a story mode IMO, though.

Yakoob, you should obviously do a Karaski-themed rip-off where you shoot an infinite supply of your game's characters. Perhaps Demon Dirigibles?
Anyway, I've read a number of reviews of this one now to be pretty sure that it's not for me. faetal's description seems quite apt, and I wouldn't pay in order to play a fever nightmare. Also, I'd suck at it.

I would be all over the indie FPS with this game's art direction combined with 90s FPS level design.
