Overall Thoughts
lot's of potential. the pad support and chicks might make it already better than tower.
played with pad
reached minugun dev room
Random notes:
i dont like forced tutorial trigger after a few steps of starting. imo a screen that you can click like the shop would be better. pure preference
i like the systemshock vibes of mobs
the level assets are less SPACE than i would like. they seems no SPACE at all, it's mmore an underground bunker
shop girl is cute. the protestic arms seems more armor than prostetic arms. if they are armor, they are not armor enough
I really like shop.exe anim.
since this is a more industrial setting than tower, having those green cabinet for chests is not enough of a telegraph(this is a problem only for the first 5min). i see bookshelves with stuff on it, i wanna try to take that stuff. like classic RE, you should fine a visual way to guess what's clickable or not at a glance
equipping stuff with pad is a nightmare.
since you can move while attacking and aiming, the enemies are not good enough to be a challenge. imo check how poe 2 solved that problem
on the other side i would like a dash of somekind. Or since you have big guns that weight a lot, you get a debuff on speed with big stuff like minigun, so enemies can be dangerous. there are ofc a lot of ways to solve this problem
overall for pad i would like to have a laser sight, at least for silenced pistol since you can miss a lot. maybe it can be an attachment u can add to any weapon. dunno what's your design pov on that
i like the gore and gibs. maybe like some other games those gibs can be internal organs, bones etc
