The setting is well done. Reminded me of sandstorms in my many years over in Iraq and surrounding area.
It's a decent first person shooter. I would make better use of the Italian soldier theme though. If I hadn't read that I was playing as an Italian soldier I could have imagined myself to be almost any nationality. Maybe have some Italian dialogue?
I beat the demo on my second try. The notebook does a good job of showing the controls and objectives.
I didn't encounter any game-breaking issues, but there are some things I would recommend fixing/improving:
- The player seems to get snagged on objects a lot, especially while jumping.
- Jumping up a ladder felt awkward, so I would recommend just moving forward or maybe pressing F to climb a ladder.
