This looks like one of those fake games FullSail would pretend they were making.

It’s from a mobile dev from Cyprus

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

Yeah, it looks fake af so dunno why they labeled the trailer as "gameplay". At best it's in-engine like those BF1 and BF2024 reveal trailers were.

Anyway, I'm #teamfake on this one lol.

No way its real, she's way too attractive to be a video game heroine.

 

[Spukc]

SPINE — Official Gameplay Trailer​

 

[March Climber]

This trailer perfectly summed up the feel of those C-tier games during the PS2/Xbox/GC generation that would have a bland-looking female spy in a suggestive pose on the front cover of the box.

You all know the ones.

 

[Chronicle]

Looks cool. Me love some kick n' punch!

 

[drotahorror]

I mean, if this is actual gameplay it looks good. Looks fake though.

Needs more nudity and gore if real. Just my 2 cents. Makes every game better.

 

[WitchHunter]

Two weapon shooting. Have these people ever been to a shooting range? Other than that, looks pleasing. Let's pray so it becomes real.

 

[SmokedMeat]

Nice movie of a game idea. Maybe it’ll exist someday.

 

[Gojiira]

Yeah no hud, no ui, no prompts etc, susssssssssss.
Cool but yeah.

 

[thismeinteil]

Not sure why they labeled it gameplay, as it also says it's just in-game, not gameplay, in the tiny print at the beginning. Looks interesting, though. We'll see if it actually sees the light of day.

 

[SlimySnake]

 

[ultrazilla]

The downgrade on this will be fucking legendary.

 

[Puscifer]

Dawg lol

 

[MasterDerico]

Looks awesome! On my radar!

 

[fran.fernandez]

She walk strange? Gravity don’t apply to her ?

 

[RyRy93]

That opening sequence where each soldier has a few opportunities to kill the protag but just stand there…

 

[GymWolf]

It looks so fake that i'm not even impressed by the graphic and animations...

 

[StueyDuck]

lol is this like a parody or something, surely this isn't a real product trying to sell itself as real gameplay

 

[StueyDuck]

It’s from a mobile dev from Cyprus

Cyprus?

Color me surprised, this had Korea/China garbage written all over it.

 

[Johnny Concrete]

This is probably animated and rendered in Blender.

No way it’s from a game engine.

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

The devs have released earlier today new gameplay (and screenshots on their Steam page).

 

[The Cockatrice]

Even with that fake gameplay, it looks like shit lmao.

 

[SaintALia]

The devs have released earlier today new gameplay (and screenshots on their Steam page).

Reminds me of Oni, but sillier. I think it should look cooler than this, but doesn't. Maybe it's missing that gritty realism of Wick, and not being as stylistic graphically as Oni, all the while gameplay and animations not being as tight. Well, looking as tight anyway.

 

[Apocryphon]

Awkward combat, awful art direction, PS3 era animations. Trailer doesn’t do the game any favours at all.

 

[mckmas8808]

The devs have released earlier today new gameplay (and screenshots on their Steam page).

Feels like they are trying to go with Spiderman combat, but with guns. I like what they are doing here, but the combat needs to be FASTER and a little more fluid.

 

[Jinzo Prime]

The devs have released earlier today new gameplay (and screenshots on their Steam page).

Fake zoomer humor, derivative Arkham/Spider-Man combat, slow janky animations; who does this appeal to? Who wants to play this?

Context-Sensitive Action: The Videogame!

I can't even tell if this might be fun to play somehow? It's like you're playing the game via a spreadsheet of combat moves, but then there's a ton of "if this+that then also the other move" tricks built into this demo (which I can't imagine they could sustain for a long campaign.) Very blocky mechanics because of that, moreso than even some of the Creed/Arkham/Spidey/ clones that use this combat flow, but then if you really did have control over 2-on-1s and fisticuffs-to-guns (and they gave the baddies some AI commands besides waiting for their turn to attack) then maybe there could be some rhythm to get into with this? Like... Killer Instinct but with guns.

I wish them well, at least. Somehow these types of D-grade action bop-abouts fell off in frequency (did Wanted: Dead turn out any good?) so I don't have great faith in it but at least it's a genre I like.

(Thanks for the trailer share all the same though!)

 

[MetalRain]

I think they should lean even more to comic style, that is the one interesting bit.
