Legacy Of Kain with parkour? Sure, go on then

Bloodthief is simply a vampiric parkour slash 'em up, and it's got a demo

Not really a stealth FPS hybrid of Blood and Thief - though I'd wage bully wealth for that - Bloodthief is person to thing similar Ghostrunner but also, I think, overmuch better. The Steam demo's opening levels are astir arsenic tricky and demanding arsenic the cyberpunk parkour bid but, possibly to owed to little interest with being stylish, the question present feels a batch much caffeinated. You lone person to look astatine the visuals to timepiece that Bloodthief isn't that benignant of crippled that's precious astir letting you bash silly things with momentum.

Also you're a vampire, with a sword, exsanguinating armoured knights successful a vaguely Germanic medieval town. Well, Vae my Victus. I bash get precise excited erstwhile thing reminds me, adjacent a little, of Blood Omen: Legacy Of Kain. Here's a bully small video of the crippled successful action. Warning: this trailer for the crippled Bloodthief has humor successful it.

Even successful the aboriginal levels, the mode your assorted question options concatenation unneurotic starts to get nicely silly. Wall moving itself feels a small loose, but an aerial dash that lets you grapple to enemies portion lining up your adjacent descent lets you wide immense distances successful seconds. There's, uh, there's besides a rocket parry but I won't clasp that against it (I've reached captious parry wide astatine this point). Features? Absolutely, yeah. Several:

• Bloodthief is an ultra-fast melee dungeon-runner wherever you usage momentum to parkour done hazardous dungeons and brutally slash done enemies. Speed-run done medieval dungeons and castles and larn what acheronian secrets prevarication beneath the surface.

• In Bloodthief you play arsenic a vampire, and the humor of your foes fuels your abilities and propels you to insane speeds. Movement and combat are profoundly intertwined—you’ll request to usage some successful a beauteous creation of accomplishment and carnage.

• Levels afloat of branching paths, shortcuts, and secrets reward those with the accomplishment and creativity to propulsion them off. Find the cleanable way done labyrinthine dungeons and reap the rewards for your efforts.

Matthew (RPS successful peace) died 1423 times successful Ghostrunner. I deliberation I mightiness person doubled that successful 20 minutes with Bloodthief's demo, but they are the benignant of deaths that marque a antheral a bare for mastery. Also, Wotsits. But chiefly mastery. It's a decent sized demo, too, with six levels. The afloat crippled is "coming soon", but you tin acquisition the unbeatable sensation of Flamin' Hot Crunchy Wotsits close now.
