This is already a fantastic game.

One of the first thing it introduces to you is a seemingly-redundant unarmed combat system, which is immediately invalidated by having any guns whatsoever. This is a trap you should not fall into, because actually learning how to use that combat system is INTEGRAL to having the most fun possible with the game.

I'd compare it to the way Mirror's Edge feels better if you eschew guns entirely to focus on outmaneuvering and decking the cops in their piggish little faces. The same principle applies here in spades. You are BETTER than they are, and you will prove it with nary a bullet spent.

That's not to say there's no challenge, enemies ARE a threat and if you run out of heals and ammo you're gonna need to backtrack a bit as punishment. This, however, is a disguised blessing too since there's so many different avenues of attack you can discover in the process. For example, if you get outside for a space-walk, you can easily spend some of that ammo taking out some of the turrets so you can backtrack easier through certain areas.

This is a fantastic game on such a fundamental level I can't help but fully endorse it, even in early access. All it has to do is keep adding more excellently planned levels and fun new ideas.
