      Looks cool, how does the slow mo work multiplayer wise? obviously he can't just do slow mo for one player, if someone goes slow mo in front of you does it affect you too so its potentially like a double edged sword if they've better aim?

    Dude tbh, I become more & more impressed every year at what small & single man dev teams have done lately. It's really cool to play games that feel like they're made with passion. Both "the ascent" & "midnight fight express" gave me that feel. Shout out to all the devs that still care ❤

      Road to Vostok in another single dev game but I think recently he hired some people to help with the game but the fact that one person can create a good game is very telling. Out of Action looks decent I'll be keeping my eye on it for sure.

      I dare to say I have more hours in games made by 1-3 devs than in triple A games over the last 5 years.
      Mostly not perfect games in any way and sometimes clunky but different and refreshing.
      If you make a painting you don’t do it with a big team and all kind of managers telling you what to do. That is why I think indie games are the real art of gaming.
      Edit : just checked and 550 hours in Empyrion for example.

      They have no interest in making games... in fact, their goal is to make skill irrelevant through "subtle" algorthms all while trying to stimulate addictive patterns.
      Most people dont know themselves in the slightest, nevermind how our evil world is truly run so ima end this here.

    I honestly have nothing but respect for single devs, especially ones that make this good of a game.
    I mean at a AAA studio its ONE PERSON'S job to work on sound design, or UI, viewmodel animations, third person animations, gameplay, etc. In fact, most of these positions have multiple people if not over a dozen people working on it. Most AAA games have hundreds of people working on them at one time. These guys lwent to school on how to do just ONE of these positions. Indie devs are doing all of them at once. It's insane.
