    Incredibly frenetic game made by ONE person, unfortunately game length is short and I don't know if it should be a paid experience as it feels like a tech demo.

    I will say this one is worse than the original Bright Memory because all your attacks and abilities share a regenerating bar, in the previous entry they were on skill cooldown and gave more freedom to fight how you wanted.

    Good game. I like it. Short, rhythmic, fast, almost first-person slasher.

    In the beginning, the game tries to be like Call Of Duty, which, IMHO, does not really suit this game, but later the game gets better with the advent of slasher and arena mechanics. Another good side of this game is its duration, 2.5 hours. But, for a long time I have not had so much fun.

    Not even close to the length or quality you would expect for a game of this price. Feels like a free demo for a game that would be mediocre even if full length with more fleshed out mechanics. Shooting and melee is weightless and the grapnel hook seemed freeform in the trailers, but is actually only used at a few scripted points.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I finished the game on the second-highest difficulty of the game (since the hardest difficulty cannot be selected on the first playthrough), and honestly the game was disappointing

    The only things I can consider as a positive point is the gameplay and the graphics, other than that it has a weak, confusing and short story. Bosses are basically bullet sponges, and the game honestly is not really complicated and is completely linear (only with small collectibles scattered around the small map area)

    Fortunately I received this game ''for free'' because I had bought the previous version of the game more than a year ago, which honestly despite being shorter than this game (which lasts 15-25 minutes to give an idea), ended up being more fun than this now, the first brought even more interesting ideas, such as a small demonstration that puzzles could be something present in the game, something that was totally discarded in this one

    It would be better to wait another 3 years (or even longer), to have a more polished and complete game
    I even find it ridiculous that in the release state of the game, they still decide to create separate DLC's, even if they are purely cosmetic    … Expand

    The team promised to deliver a full-scale game after the great demo a year ago.
    Instead, the 40 minutes demo was continued with 2 hours one.

    The initial story was curious, but wasn't properly explained here.
    Game mechanics have been slightly improved.
    Bosses are pretty hard, the final boss is pain.

    And that's it. It isn't even a game, just yet another demo!

    Imagine that, its SO WELL DONE it feels like a tech demo of the latest and greatest technologies from a massive AAA studio. Except you know... its not. It's a game made by a single guy in is spare time. Hell in my spare time I'm lucky if I can find time to PLAY games let alone MAKE one. I think if this was done in 2-3 gen old or "retro" graphics critics would be way more lenient with it. But since its so well done and things like Ray Tracing and DLSS are so well implemented and it looks so good it triggers people into expecting more.

    Is the story the best, no honestly it feels like a really long action sequence in a movie and we've skipped the lore leading up to said action sequence.

    It's not like it's priced like a long AAA game either. I mean I've literally paid 4-5x what I did for Bright Memory for a AAA game only to be sorely disappointed and spend less time playing than a single play though.

    It's shortness can also be seen as a strength. Sometimes you don't want a 20+ Hour campaign sometimes you need a short 2 hour game you can squeeze in during some downtime between other things... Gotta a couple hours to kill after work before you meet up with someone for dinner. You can play though Bright Memory or you can sit through a couple of long drawn out cutscene's in other games... just saying.    … Expand

    it's weird how a game can phase itself out. I mean, there's a lot here, maybe more than it should? I heard this game was made by, idk, 1 guy? I respect that, but developing a game by yourself with so much different mechanics can backfire.
    But yeah, with such a small team there's not much i can criticize here

Level design somewhat linear and 2h campaign leaves you wanting a lot more, but definitely worth trying out for the strength of gameplay.

Визуал отменный, боевка очень динамичная и сочетает в себе комбинацию огнестрела с холодным оружием. Сюжет... ну он тут есть. Несмотря на продолжительность, авторы умудрились запихнуть в игру прокачку, стелс миссию, нескольких боссов, и даже поездку на автомобиле. Конечно, каждый их этих элементов довольно простой, а от стелс миссии можно было полностью отказаться, но стремление разработчиков показать всё, что они могут, мне нравится.

    Immediately began to pass on the complexity of "revenge" and turned off the sight, I don't know...although I haven't played a lot in Rust, but lately the sight has been distracting me more and I try to turn it off if possible if there is such an opportunity. Naturally this applies to single games only) But to be honest, what is, what is not - the sight does not play a role here at all. Skills help to get out of any situation (almost) a winner. I died 67 times for the first pass, I tried to inspect everything and everything from here, apparently my record of passing is slightly higher than most, or maybe they passed with a high on the lung.

    Positive:

    Optimization, although this is a controversial point.
    I passed it at QHD resolution with the maximum available graphics settings, similarly with retracing.
    I have RTX 2060S and using DLSS in quality I got stable 48-56 fps and this was enough through the roof, but the problem was sometimes detected when loading textures after death, perhaps this was due to the fact that on the second monitor I was playing farm in parallel :D And possibly due to the insufficient number of tensor cores. And closer to the end of the game, I completely turned off retracing because this drawdown was steamed up to 4 fps.

    A beautiful picture and a variety of gameplay - driving a car was spectacular but very clumsy. Throughout the game you will use parkour, hook, weapons and skills. Pumping is meager of course - a few skills for a blade and a hand, but in my opinion this is enough.

    Interesting locations. When I first got to the bar, I don't know what and what it's called there, I came across three signs, so the developer was not lazy and made three different posters, it's commendable that they paid attention to all sorts of little things when creating the game. Enemy shields are broken in pieces, some objects are destroyed, but of course I would like more objects to be destroyed.

    Disadvantages:

    Developer, why the hell is there no photo mode in the game, it's a crime :-D

    The main villain, well, the one that appears a couple of times during the whole game, in my opinion, is worked out much better than the main character. I'm not talking about her ass and breasts now, but about her face first of all, well, just compare her face and the "face of the main antagonist". She has no emotions, and this catches the eye even earlier than her detailing, or something. In general, something about her always repelled me.

    During the passage, in addition to the above described friezes, I encountered only one bug when I picked up a weapon for the first time, after I could not do anything (shoot, use a sight, skills), only movement and sight worked. I was treated only by restarting from a checkpoint.

    Plot - consider this point neutral. For everyone it is individual of course. I wouldn't say it's bad, but it's boring, there are no "WOW" moments, twists in it. I think it will do for the scale of such a game, and of course I hope that a sequel will still appear.

    DLC - where is the build with red skins? Here it was not, I did not buy them :D

    In general, I was satisfied with the game, I initially did not expect anything supernatural from it, and as a result I got a wonderful attraction for a couple of evenings. Thanks to FYQD-Studio for this product!    … Expand

Our game takes place in Asia in 2036. It doesn't have much of a story anyway. He is the same person as our sister who was in the first demo.

    The most impressive part of the game is definitely the graphics. So the producer has really benefited from all the blessings of the unreal game engine. The game looks really good. So the lighting, shadows, animations and colors that explode on the screen make you feel like you are playing a really AAA game. The atmosphere of the place where the game takes place gives us this feeling. has a great impact on providing

    Another strong aspect of the game is our superpowers. We have only one superpower, in fact, it is a superpower that we can pull our enemies with us and explode them, but it is so satisfying that it is very enjoyable to use it. It is also an incredible pleasure to hold the stronger enemies that we pull with us in the air and cut them with a sword. Other than that, pressing the E key for a long time gives the enemy a powerful sword blow, which is very enjoyable and offers a very good alternative to defeating some shielded enemies. Another feature of your sword is that it reflects some of the things sent by the enemies and sends it back to them. As for the boss fight part of the game, it's definitely There are no difficult boss battles. There is already a proper boss battle, and it only satisfies you visually. You can defeat all the enemies by pulling to the side. Their music also catches an atmosphere in harmony with the atmosphere, which provides a plus point.

    The strongest part of the game for me is definitely the weapons. So there are a few classic weapons and some special bullets in the game that really give you a lot of pleasure. Especially the special bullets are really high quality designed things with really good destructive power. It doesn't upset you. Maybe the sniper gun is designed a bit lousy, but okay.Unlike the first game, our game can be played not only as fps but also as tps. If you ask if it added a plus to this game, I think it didn't, but did it take anything minus from the game, so it doesn't have an effect. He took this route to sell it.

    Well, if you ask if the game has any shortcomings. For example, the game has designed a section to say that we can do everything. There is a section where you approach from behind the enemies and cut their throats, which lasts for about 5-10 minutes, where the game explodes incredibly. So artificial intelligence shows that it is incredible garbage. .And the game mechanics are exploding there. For example, when a man comes behind and presses the button, he does not make the necessary attack. Sometimes we can say that he does this attack far behind or far ahead. I do not even mention that the artificial intelligence passes by and does not see you. Hang on to the graphics as much as you want. Well, they also put a driving mechanic for a few minutes just to put it in, which isn't bad, but it doesn't seem very necessary. Let's come to the most troublesome part of the game, namely its duration. You can understand from the credits screen.

    If you want to play a two-hour game with a call of duty gameplay as a graphic call of duty during the discount period, you can buy this game for 5.99 dollar and play with great pleasure. to say.    … Expand

    A full playthrough takes about two hours, which is weird, considering that Infinite is advertised as a full game. Still, these two hours are good, so hopefully, next time the developer will get a bigger budget and will finally deliver a full-length game. [Issue#259, p.55]

    Forget the utterly nonsensical story, the unbalanced combat mechanics, the aggravating insta-deaths, the glitches, bugs, translation errors, and so on. Bright Memories: Infinite's biggest issue is that it's not a complete package. It's a two-hour tech demo, and not even an impressive one. The general idea behind it is great (one-woman army who is both a gunfighter, a ninja, and a high-tech wizard), but the execution is subpar to say the least.
