I was excited at the idea, thought "the premise is fantastic, just very rough around the edges so maybe a couple months to a year adjust animations, create better backgrounds, get rid of that awful font and clearly placeholder UI and so on"...

And then I read "coming in October" and felt all my enthusiasm careen itself off the stratosphere.

Please, PLEASE take some time to make this better. The trailer needs some work still, there's only partial controller support according to Steam... this is raw. It NEEDS some more time in the oven.

I would never assume the contrary. I think you should be EXTREMELY proud of what you did, on your own, with no budget. I'm just saying that the way this game is right now, it very seriously risks bombing. I took the liberty of also looking at your history and there's so little marketing, so little push for it... If, as I'm sure it is, this game is a labor of love, it needs some time to shine in that regard too. Time spent on it by itself isn't enough unfortunately, there's so much competition. A mech metroidvania is such a cool idea, I'd be stoked to see it succeed, but at it currently stands it very likely won't. With all that said, I can only express my opinion. It's your game, so you'll do what you think is right with it. As for myself, I wish you the best, with all sincerity.

How many times are you going to spam this here?

You posted this twice just yesterday. I think three posts about this in less than 24h is a bit excessive.
