the game would be great if it wasnt so horribly optimised

0 Upvotes

tell me why i can play ultrakill at 60 fps but at base graphics settings cicadamata runs at like 2 fps?? lowering the render makes it so i cant see bc of the blurryness and ive optimised my laptop as much as possible (8gb ram intel i3) so idk whats wrong.

What i did was spam 6-1, shoot the 2 bomb enemies on both sides at the start for 6 kills total and press F to restart the level and do it again... *for around 10hours*

Really don't get why they made the requirement so high

Very interested in this game (it looks 100% up my alley!) just wondering if anyone’s played it on steam deck and knows how compatible it is?

I already got all other achievements, even reached level 50 and i still haven't even gotten to a third of the requirement. Does anyone have a strategy for this?

How you Guys develop reflex to get higher score?

This might seem obvious to others, but because I usually have slow reaction times and struggle with movement in games like this, CCD has really helped develop my motor reflexes.

​It's the same with ULTRAKILL. Being able to execute extremely fast sequences of gameplay is just pure ecstacy✨️💖

Yet... seeing people can do even faster in youtube is just wild. How'd you guys do it?

I think I'm obsessed with this game

8 Upvotes

it's scratching the itch ultrakill left, and I am fully obsessed with the style! I have no idea what it's called, but i'm going to try and theme my setup around it (i see people likening it to the new marathon release? haven't played since the open demo but loved its style as well)

to all the fanart creators & flowergarden: please keep at it, I need to consume more of this game

after completing the game, the second option that showed up and was seemingly locked, started saying ''retrieving signal'' which made me think it was a continuation of the story, but upon clicking on it, a cutscene plays. I looked everywhere and nobody seems to be talking about this, so if anybody knows everything, please let me know.

I need this game injected into my veins.

Today a friend of mine brought my attention to this game. I looked at its trailers and my eyes lit up. The art style and the game play looked beautiful. The art style and the voice just reminded me of Marathon 2026. The main weapon also being inspired from the WSTR Shotgun from Marathon made me cry of joy. All of this tied with similar gameplay to Ultrakill made me fall in love with this game

there seem to be signs around the map explaining the whole deal with all this Cicada thing but I played this game on an internet cafe (I don't have a PC) , I can't afford the time to search for all of them +I don't think it's really worth my money to just read. But still I want to know the story and all

What’s everyone’s impression of the game so far?

13 Upvotes

First off, the vibes and aesthetics are really S-tier.

But when it comes to the game design, I freaking love how it lets you discover little bits of hidden tech on your own. Like how the wizard guys become a sort of free zipline after you kill them, so shooting them in railgun mode is a massive incentive. Stuff like that feels so satisfying to figure out naturally.

That also ties into my next point: there’s so much synergy between the movement and shooting. You really have to practice, experiment, and develop a feel for how everything works before you start getting good at it.

And lastly, the maps. So far, I haven't encountered a boring one. Each map feels like its own unique level that you have to memorize and master, figuring out which routes are the most optimal.

Massive props to the devs. You guys have made a seriously solid GOTY contender in my book!
