For a solo game, this looks great!
I couldn't get past the tutorial; I couldn't grasp how complex using a knife or a takedown is. But from what I did get to, it made me think of my favorite way to play Hitman. The stealth assassin.
I think the music fit nicely, and honestly, I'll probably give this another go when I am more rested. Maybe I can be better, if I am better xD

Thank you!
The fact that the knife/takedown controls stopped you is really useful feedback for me.
They’re intentionally directional, but if that didn’t come across clearly enough in the tutorial, that’s on the game to communicate better. I’ve been trying to keep the onboarding pretty light, so this is a good sign that I may have gone a little too light there.
The Hitman comparison is very much in the neighborhood of what I was going for, so I’m glad that came through even from the short amount you got to play.
Definitely don’t feel like you need to be “better” at it 😄 If you give it another go and the controls still feel unclear, that’s useful information too.
Thanks for trying it and for the feedback.
