SUFFER

Falling down the Corporate-owned AI rabbit hole isn't very punk of you "Anarchy Softworks LLC" Return the original graphics, Don't conform.

nice job shoving ai bullcrap into an otherwise great game

Short Version: Its basically a decent sendup of classic Quake/DOOM (more like Quake, gameplay-wise) with a great sense of a humour and a soundtrack that is too good for it. Long Version: After playing about two hours of this game I can safely say it is definitely one of the more challenging indie titles I've played in a long time. It is designed to be frustrating, but its offers just enough of an addiction-loop that it keeps me coming back. The levels are simple but still manage to hide collectibles, hidden enemies, and mix in platforming to stay fresh. I haven't seen more than the first boss, "Cyber Ninja," but I found myself laughing at how ridiculous he is. The enemy design is very basic, even a little crude, but the tongue-in-cheek use of political soundbytes, the original music also written by the designer, and hilarious features like a suicide button and in-game taunts written on the walls show how much heart this little game really has. When I say "little" I don't mean short, btw. The game has more than seventy levels, each one harder than the last. If you want a fun little shooter with light exploration elements, I don't think you can beat this for the price. The music alone is worth it.

tldr: game bad, assets look like ♥♥♥♥ SUFFER is mind numbingly boring in terms of gameplay. nothing feels all correct, enemies have no interesting traits, the movement is under average, the sword is awful, and all of the guns feel the same in the most recent update, "ultimate suffer" has scrubbed away any of the visual charm of the assets. it used to look like an (admittedly pretty poorly drawn) niche early 2000s nu metal band's album cover turned into a game, but it's turned into a mishmashed mess of ai generated art that looks horribly out of place went from a 2.5/5 to a 1/5 real fast due to this only things salvageable from this is the soundtrack, the suicide button and the insult button

Glorious glitchy fast mess, love it! Consume this !

What was once a fun movement based FPS with a cool as hell punk aesthetic akin to ZPC and Midnight Ultra, has now been tainted by the stank of gen AI "art" and vibe coding. The developer mentioned that this was in response to losing the first game's code and people hating on the original sprite work, which was rough but charming and full of personality. I was initially excited for this re-release when I noticed it was receiving an update, so it's a shame the dev allowed themselves to be taken by the Snatchers in the process. It's not all bad, as the game now includes the sequel and an added third episode, all while offering it as a free update. The game will also run on very low end hardware, a big reason I bought it when I was rocking a budget laptop as my main machine. I intend to reinstall it on that machine and see if the old clunker will still play it. I wish I had left a review for the original version, but I cannot in good faith recommend this game now. [b]Note to the developer:[/b] I understand the temptation to use AI art and vibe coding, but this isn't it. If this is the path you want to take with your future projects, so be it, but please consider offering the original game as an alternative option using Steam's Game Versions & Betas feature. I would be willing to re-evaluate my review in that case.

This game is such a vibe! It feels real and fun and like it can and should be run on a slow, glitchy computer. It's awesome! It's not easy, but it isn't impossible. Everything in it feels clean and intentional! Super fun and that is more than I can say about most games, and really that's all you need to make a game good. If you want a game that feels genuine and doesn't have the overly-polished, repetitive feel of most games that come now I would definitely grab this one! Worth it!

This game kicks ass! i love it! it has some ugly sprites to say the least, but the movement seems fluid, the blink mechanic is awesome, and who doesnt love a sexy ninja with giant boobs slicing people in half while shouting ♥♥♥♥ you to the police and flipping them off? Play it!
