Repeated intro
Hey! Big demo update for Steam's FPS Fest! I reworked pretty much half of everything, smoothing out issues with running the game that some people ran into & generally trying to make things more accessible. I rebuilt the tutorial from the ground up, made some punchier weapon sounds, reworked the blood effects from the ground up, fixed multiple softlockable points, etc!

Lotsa stuff... Progress on the main game is going smoothly- working with the VA cast has been super fun, and I've loved seeing people's reactions to the game both good & bad!
Thanks for all the interest in this little solo project of mine... Till next time! - Elias
