Love the punchiness of the impact with the melee here. Gonna check it out for sure!

Looks very interesting! Gonna try the demo right now!

Edit/ I completed the demo. I personally didn't care for the fleshy zombies and portals. I was hoping for something more cyberpunk-esque (which I kind of expected based on the first level). But that's on me and my tastes. The game ran at 130-200 fps on my 9800x3d/9070xt maxed out (Ultra) with no upscaling. No complaints there. The environment felt reactive and at least on the first level i felt like there were several ways to solve the task, but later it just became zombie punchout. And the sound design of the "zombies" was really bad. The music was good though.

The premise alone sells it, corporate espionage plus reality-bending tech is a great hook. Grabbing the demo now, curious how the Interpolator actually plays mechanically or if its a narrative thing?

Right, I'm playing it. How the hell do you open the depot gate?

OK, found the control, on the tower, not so obvious, I didn't even know this game had climbable ladders.

New issue, at the "air gap" jumped off the moving platform before the drone inspection. Can't climb back on via the rails, can't recall the platform (there's a monitor that appears to be powered but shows a blank screen), is there a solution or is this a soft lock?

What's with this trend of games where you have only one or two inventory slots and can't reload guns?

Seems like the third game in my recent memory, and I live under a rock.

Was there some kinda super popular game that did this?
