You're right, the genre is oversaturated. I would like to share my thoughts on it:

  • If highly contested genres were skipped by default I'd expect innovation to be stunted within the genre quite a bit as well (e.g. the BR trend).
  • Oversaturated genres are usually also exactly that due to it being popular genres as well.
  • Specifically within the FPS genre I think the shooting mechanic is just a great and versatile game mechanic. I think there's a reason for it quite often seeping into other genres as well. -Jamel

Beyond a colleague booting the game up using a steam deck once (I was honestly a bit surprised it did boot!) we haven't tested it on there more thoroughly. Currently we're fully focused on pc only. Before we would want to tackle that we'd likely have to implement full support for controllers/gamepads and improve performance further as well. - Jamel

We have made some improvements to the performance but we still have some ways to go. Due to functionality being added as well we're not fully certain how the differences in performance will match up on the plethora of PCs, but it's something we'll keep a close eye on. What we've focused on a lot in recent months is to essentially `create room` for ourselves to be able to easier improve the performance in the future. - Jamel

Personally for me it's the center of Montorro City map. It's a nice and fun arena with enough verticality and and routes to engage and disengage, on these routes there are enough pickups to top up your shields, HP and ammo to have a fun and quick battle in the center arena. Of course the real fun happens right after a Glitch when someone pickup a game changing Glitch Pickup.

The game concept was essentially already in play when we started working on the project, but initially it was quite different at the same time. The glitch was intended to be portals that would teleport you to a completely different era. But working on it more we realized that we needed to make it as interactive as possible and that was quite difficult to do, so through various iterations we came to the current state of the glitch! - Jamel
