The full game will be released on September 13, but shockingly, there is a demo.

I recommend giving it a go. The graphics are quite impressive coming from a new dev that built an engine from scratch. And if you like "old school" style shooters, the gameplay is pretty fun.

Oh, and the final release will have no DRM. That's exclusive of Steamworks, of course, although no one seems to have any idea how or to what extent that was implemented.

The demo runs beautifully. Another DX9 pushed to the limits I am pretty sure.
I consider it a bit of an old school shooter with all the modern attributes we love.
In the demo menu there is a benchmarking utility which I found a bit surprising also.
I guess they love their optimization and are proud of it.
I averaged 90 frames per second and the game is gorgeous.
Movement is very crisp and responsive and I was surprised how I was immediately pleased.
So when you look at the Steam price of $26 the rest of the game would have to fail pretty miserably to be a great disappointment.
Yet I do get the sense that the game will get pretty repetitive at some point.
It's a purchase for me because it's a blow blank up easy to play game that I am in the mood for right now.

Thanks for the heads-up on the benchmarking utility. I didn't know it was there.

My results: MIN = 47 FPS ... MAX = 175.9 ... AVE = 107.2 on "Ultra" settings at 1920x1080.

I really like the art style of the game, and the gameplay provides a nice counterpoint to all the frayed-nerves I get with ROHOS (in a good way). It's been a helluva gaming season.
