I'm looking forward to seeing how this game turns out! One thing I kind of wish for is a faster ramp up to running speed (although this could be slow for a reason yet to be discovered, I'm not sure).

Found a Bug: Inaccuracy when dashing while looking down/up.

When you dash in a given direction while your camera is pitched all the way down/up, Paige will dash at an incorrect angle.

well some ideas i had for level objectives are pretty basic, stuff like:

• find an elevator key
  the elevator key is attached to an enemy. you'll need it in order to leave. if you just go for the key you can skip the level, if you just kill every bot you're guaranteed to get the key (check if player has a key when player is near elevator, unlock elevator)
• survive for # time
  enemies would continuously spawn throughout the level. you could try to clear out all of the enemies so there's less threats, or just outrun them until the time runs out. (wait # seconds, unlock elevator)
• survive # waves
  enemies still continue to spawn after the level starts, but instead when all the enemies are killed, more enemies spawn for a new wave. this is a bit of a roadblock objective. (maybe add a slight grace period) (repeat until #, unlock elevator)
• kill big bot
  instead of the normal enemies, you have to hunt down a more dangerous bot. this can be a souped up enemy or, if there's bosses, a somewhat lite version of a boss you've already defeated in the run. (if big bot killed, unlock elevator)
• this elevator has reached it's destination
  this is more like a secondary objective, you will need to find the other elevator in order to continue, but also you still need to complete the level's objective

from what I understand this is VERY early in development, and i want to at least put my two cents for ideas and critiques for future iterations.

• an options feature would definitely help a lot with player accessibility
• viewmodel animations indicating when you're reloading and feedback/recoil from when you fire gives players some nice feedback
• your health remains the same between levels which means if you're one hit from death when you go to the next level then that level will most likely be your last
• dropping your weapon seems to be the least helpful tactic to deploy in a facility full of murderous robots. unless chucking a gun at some poor machine deals last-ditch damage, then i don't really see a point
• it doesn't really seem like there's spawn protection or an enemy spawn prevention radius around the elevator considering i spawned in a room full of bots that ended my run in a split second, would be best to figure that out as well
• would be interesting to have an index for any enemies you encounter
• rooms could not only use some decorating but also some obstacles, like maybe bulletproof glass or an automatic sliding door... although i could be understanding the style wrong.
• maybe some rooms have alternate objectives to progress rather than just gunning down all enemies?
