More than a survival horror, it looks like a shooter in a survival horror environment. In fact, I cannot see any puzzle in this demo and seems to be focused on shooting instead on adventure.

I cannot judge the controls because I use Linux but I think it uses tank controls.

Hi Antonio- it leans more towards the "action" side of survival horror (resident evil 4, cold fear, dino crisis). There will definitely be puzzles in the finished game. My apologies for not having builds for Linux, as we don't have any way to test those builds and would be gambling on their quality. Hopefully in the near future we will push to other platforms!

Thank you for your reply. I will follow your project, anyway. I am curious about the future developments.

FPS seems to be 26fps locked for some reason, could it be locked to a certain refresh rate (30hz maybe)? Here's some footage: https://streamable.com/2ep4lf

Hey Sam, originally I had intentionally locked the framerate to a cap of 30 (for emulating the original psx fps), but the most recent build I posted on the game page should be upped to 60 now. Unless you're seeing it locked to 26 fps in that build too?

*Edit- just saw this was a comment on that devlog haha. Okay, that's weird. I'll have to look into that if you're still seeing it on the most recent build.

Thought it might be locked for nostalgia reasons! If you need any more specifics I'll be glad to help.
