Edit: it looks like the banner is incorrect. On the front page of steam it’s the right dates and says summer, but when I click on it to see all the sales it says spring with the dates for the spring sale. It’ll probably get fixed soon.

    I loved furi, but damn those walking sections just made me roll my eyes. Developers think they can just get away with forced slow walking to build atmosphere.

      What’s with the cynicism? Game is a boss gauntlet, what do you mean “get away” like they’re some AAA developers getting away with a lazy design choice? You can enable auto walking in those segments and go refill your water or something, but that was a creative choice, not a “let’s cut corners—they won’t even notice” choice.

      One of the devs boxed, and while I can’t find a source, I heard the walking is supposed to give the same feeling as stepping into the ring. Which is pretty neat.

      But I started turning on Youtube as early as after the 2nd boss…

        Director is a wannabe film director and sighted Steven Spielberg’s Duel as the main inspiration too.
