Demo Play Thursday - Turbo Overkill On

Описание: For this week's #Demo Play Thursday i played Turbo Overkill on #PlayStation4, from developers Trigger Happy Interactive and publishers Apogee Entertainment.

I grew up with late 90's early 2000's shooters so playing Turbo Overkill was fun and nostalgic. but i was also impressed that the developers tried to modernise this style of shooter from just being another Doom/Quake/Unreal clone into something unique.

We're immediately greeted by two big themes of the game when we start the demo, #Cyberpunk and blood. Turbo Overkill's interpretation of Cyberpunk wasn't just the music, i felt that the world and plot of the game fitted well with what i imagine a cyberpunk style "world" to be. this helped make what story i found not only interesting but also a story i wanted to see where it went and what would happen next. the visuals and music were good on PS4, but i did think the music looped a little too soon.

For me, the Turbo Overkill demo was long because i kept making platforming mistakes. it's something that can happen with first person games. i felt that up to the point i got stuck, the landing platforms i've had to get too were big/wide enough so landing was easy. but there was this one platform that was tiny in comparison that took a few times to get. thankfully, falling to the bottom didn't kill me as the game's level design is smart and built vertically so we can get right back there fairly easily. i am just a bit concerned that these sort of platforming sections might become a little too frequent.

As a demo, i think it works all right. it doesn't say demo on the home screen nor is there a way to get to the PSN Store from there, something that many demos do nowadays. i think this is the start of the game and i think they've made it long enough to so we get enough story to be hooked, enough of the shooting and platforming mechanics so we know if we like how it feels and plays, and we've had a couple of goes with the upgrades to our body. but i do think it could've pointed us to the options or done a tutorial to help with how fast the camera controls are. i knew from the start that the camera was moving too fast and i had to go into the options and sort it out.
