thanks but why did you put the checkpoint system in if its meant to be like a 90's shooter? Not hating just really wondering why we couldnt have just been able to save when we want, like in doom and quake and other shooters at the time?

Well, the thing is that it isn't meant to be a pure 90's shooter. It's sort of a hybrid between those and a console platformer game (Contra, Mega Man, etc.). Those games didn't have quicksaving and relied on checkpoints. Being able to save every 5 seconds kinds of ruins the tension caused by the game's obstacles.

You're free to quicksave on medium or below.

I understand now thank you

I hope that helps. For the record, this is something I screwed up on. Big rookie mistake! :P It's definitely something we're aware of and fixing for the next game.

Hm? There are auto saves and quick saves in the game.

well considering the way the game plays and later bosses in later levels and even first bosses it'd been better just to have put a manuel save like in the old school shooters, instead of having a set number of lives, and i know about the tension of obstacles and i appreciate the challenges you have put in the game, you could just have a set number of manuel saves, say, 2 or 3 per level. Maybe even just 1 manuel save per level. and i appreciate how you guys tried to combine old school fps and megaman, but really they both work nearly completely different, like i appreciate how you tried to do something different but the two generes just dont mix very well, but i do like this game and i believe that with a little tuning to the saves and maybe some of the unfairly difficult sections, youd have a game worthy of me syncing as much time in as i had in doom 1 and 2 and quake 1 and 2. I know im a little sloppy in my typing, and if youd like me to elaborate better i sure will! also watch gggmanlives review of your game Wrack, he made some reall truthfully valid points!

All valid points. We tried something, and unfortunately it didn't work. It's why we're going in a new direction with Wrack: Exoverse.

oh yea, one more question. Can you make the next wrack a lot more bloody? If u read the reviews people think its like brutal doom, so why not make it so?

Yes. The effects are being overhauled massively, and already a ton better than they were in Wrack.
