I've been working on a game in Unreal Engine about a genestealer cult. I recently uploaded an early Alpha build for playtesting, anyone interested in playtesting it for 5-10 mins?

I'd love to hear all of your feedback if you have any!

I am not sure what you are looking for at this point, because there's not much to say really as aside from just a few assets and a Dawn of War(?) Space Marine audio clip, nothing is in place yet. Controls are responsive at least, but missing assets aside, my biggest annoyance is that the weapons feel very lacking, both in feedback, impact as well as the sound.

It may help to give us an outline of what you are going for at the very least, something of an outline of what this will all become.

Your feedback about the lacking weapon impact is definitely good to know, that's the type of thing I'm looking for currently.

Most of the custom 3D assets are in the works (more weapons, 3 characters WIP, etc), so I figured I'd see how the game actually plays while a lot of the environment assets and character assets are being worked on. The sounds and voice acting will be coming at a later date after the core gameplay is nailed down.

The game itself will be similar to Space Marine (sans the "1 man against 10,000" motif) in that it'll follow a main character (a Genestealer Cultist) as he prepares his cult for the impending revolution and subsequent Tyranid invasion.

My goal is to have 5 missions that allow the player to increase the Cult's influence in particular areas of the planet with the final mission being the actual uprising.

Thanks for taking the time to play dude, I appreciate it. The feedback is really helpful as it's difficult to be objective about something when you create it.

Thank you for the rundown and what your vision of the project is.

As a creator, something to always keep in mind is the following: Never be afraid to murder your darlings.

I look forward to the project as it progresses.

I love the idea of it being a cultist lol
