From shotguns to lead pipes
There’s no trailer yet, but there are ahandful of screenshots over on Steam. The VHS filter does look cool.
I loved the first Condemend, which paired crime scene investigation with supernatural nonsense, and a combat system that felt heavy and tactile. Iron bars weren’t just picked up, but torn from walls, and the raving enemies who rushed at you felt physically solid in the environment in a way first-person shooter enemies typically didn’t. I’m curious whether Szymanski can achieve something similar. Or whether he even wants to.
It’s worth noting that Dusk and Szymanski’s Thieflike,Gloomwood, were created and published in partnership with other companies. Butcher’s Creek isn’t, which maybe puts it more in league with his smaller works such asChop Goblins. Those aregreat too, mind(supporter only).
Butcher’s Creek is aiming for release in 2024.
