It’s an amazing feat given the fact the demo did not run well on my ever computer forcing me to kick it down to medium where the visual fidelity looked like I was viewing it through a foggy window, the game’s really poor load times (a particular grand nuisance especially if you are prone to dying, you’ll be seeing the loading screen, a lot.).
#Loopmancer release date upgrade#
I managed to complete the demo after an unimpressive 17 loops and still found myself repeatedly playing the game after the fact, specifically to unlock and upgrade weapons, retrieve collectibles and combing through all the lore found in this short demo. Digging through the game’s menus you’ll find that to get to the bottom of this case, Zixu will run afoul of at least 3 additional factions and that there will be at least 7 outcomes. These challenges are a great way to keep repeated playthroughs from becoming a slog.
#Loopmancer release date series#
Some areas will provide a series of optional challenges which will net money, upgrade cores and even collectibles which will add flavor to the world the game exists in. LongXi town is a ramshackled area of Dragon City and a blink and you’ll miss it voice line will justify its ever changing layout. Despite being a walking armory, the forces zixu will face will put up more than adequate pushback to the point where clumsy players will find themselves waking up in the beds defeated by a lowly grunt. The prosthetic arm that he is equipped with also enables him to equip various battle chips that will enable him to discharge electric blasts, flames albeit with a lengthy cooldown period. For those who prefer fighting from a distance, he does pack a sidearm and projectiles but ammo is somewhat scarce. Zixu is seemingly a master of all arms, as he will wield something as potent as a katana to something as silly as a folding stool (or a giant salted fish). It seems when you die…you mysteriously return that fixed date to repeat your investigation, that’s what puts the loop in Loopmancer. As you corner him in your initial encounter, a gunshot rings out and you awake in your bed on the day July 8th 2046. Tasked to uncover the mystery behind a series of reporter disappearances, he is sent to the slums of LongXi town to interrogate the leader of the LongXi gang…someone whom you do not have the best relationship with. You control Xiang Zixu, a detective of the ChangXu detective agency who only recently returned to work after an auto accident left him with a prosthetic arm, his wife a parapelegic and his daughter dead. Humanity has recovered from a global conflict and from the ashes, Dragon City rose.
