    Fun little co-op game where you use elemental attacks to take out large robotic looking enemies. Not the smoothest gameplay though as there is some SERIOUS input lag. I've had attacks not fire right away when pressing the mouse buttons and no amount of tweaking the sensitivity seems to have helped. If you've played this game and have used the Light element as your quick or strong attack you know what I'm talking…

    I want to like this game but it's ROUGH. The premise is cool: think of Returnal but low budget. Cool skill combo ideas, some very original skill mechanics... But also some really underwhelming ones. Sound design is all over the place: the music is cool but the sound effects are mostly awful. Skills with cool visual effects lack punch in their audio, making them feel wimpy. Aside from that, as mentioned at the start…
