I beat the game and I win nothing!
I have a love/hate relationship with Kenshi. I love the setting, I love challenges, but sometimes I hate the inevitability of your demise due to some stupid mistake. You captured that feeling really well.
After playing 20 minutes I feel like there were almost no choices you can make in the game, you pick up repair kits, you heal, you hold space when there’s an enemy in front of you. I like that your stats increase, but I don’t know how they affect your character.
There was a bug that the UI was carried over from the previous level, because I usually saw dark hitpoint bars on top of the my real ones. First I thought that you have a wound and healing system, but then I figured that it’s probably a bug.
Overall I think the difficulty fits Kenshi demake, but for the jam game I would tune it a bit easier or add some clever choices player can make to improve their odds.
Here’s my play-through:
