Very silent hill inspired survival horror game made largely by one person. Visually its very well made, gameplay is about as clunky as I would expect and voice acting is a bit hit and miss but overall still refreshing to hear new voices. Music so far is pretty well made.

Enjoyable romp if you temper your expectations its not going to be super polished.

I don't think its on par with say signalis but at least its not so violently anti-communist

Artistic direction will always be more striking than raw graphics tech. A lot of UE5 games for example look really bad even with super advanced graphical effects. I also think a generations aesthetic plays into the feel of certain types of game that doesn't transfer so easily to other generations

Crysis 1 2 and 3 was kind of a hybrid of actually genuinely brilliant artistic direction and cutting edge effects which is why all those games still look really good
