Hello there, I thought I'd give you some feedback so here's my review of the demo:

The first thing to notice about this game is that it's graphically good. There are some bad collisions here and there, but it runs pretty smoothly, so nothing unbearable.

I was able to play with my headphones on and was surprised at how I was suck into the game, pretty immersive, good sound design and an overall good atmosphere. Oh, and some ship details are very good too, like those spinning reactors outside of the ship that makes the whole thing alive and realistic. The only flaw is the animation of these synthetic robots that is quite raw and feels unfinished but then again, I completely understand that the game is far from being finished, I just want to mention it in order to make my review as exhaustive as I can.

Besides these good points, I could not finish the demo (is there an end to it?) because of bizarre scripts I assume (?). First of them, when I got my suit, I could not figure out what to do next, nor was it mentioned on the journal. I walked through the entire map and later came back to the suit room and was finally told my objective and how to use the suit. In a second time, I was unable to figure out what I had to do with the broken monitor as I watched at my journal and again no clue was given about the objective, only hints for the scanner vision were displayed which I did apply but it didn't help much. I also tried pressing E in front the broken monitor but it didn't work. I ended the demo here because I had become clueless of what to do next.

Although there are some minor technical issues which may not be a problem, the Alien feel to it and the immersive atmosphere makes me want to follow this very closely.

So far, so good. Keep up the good work.
