Midnight Alert

Midnight Alert captures the fight or flight mentally perfectly. As in I wish I could fly as far away from this game as possible. Hideously optimised including multiple soft locks causing you to restart the game due to the save also being corrupted. Movement that feels like you're in a swamp with two giants on top of your shoulders. Combat so bland and lacking of any hit recognition you'd think it came from a pre-alpha demo of a game from 2002. Bland looking enemies and environments. It's just barely the framework of a game desperately in need of updates and any resemblance of fun or interest. But don't worry guys, this will be the next best horror franchise... if the description is to be believed. For my First Impressions check out my video here: https://youtu.be/A8zYfojdNck

Midnight Alert is a Extremely Short, Jank, Unpolished, Unoptimized, repetitive, and bland. It's overpriced for a 30 min game and lacks a lot of substance. The idea can be improved upon making it into something better but for now it isn't worth the purchase. If you want to try the game I'd still say its enjoyable to speedrun afterwards and there is clearly some interesting possiblities for exploits and tricks. If you want to learn an easy speed game this is a decent start.

It's not amazing, each level consists of facing X monsters with each level adding some new ones, the climax of each level is usually a timer where you have to fight a larger # of monsters who spawn in. It's not amazing and it is quite janky such as your gun settings reset between levels and reloads. It's quite enjoyable fun that I'd recommend buying at like 5$ you'll get an hour out of an monster kill, no real replayability.
