Note: this game is by Scumhead, creator of the Shrine games, Vomitoreum and Lycanthorne, so as you can imagine, things get pretty weird! :)

Thanks for playing! There are a few last minute bugs that caused some issues for this video, but they are all fixed up for launch now. I hope everyone enjoys the game when it comes out on Valentine's Day!!! I am also very glad that people enjoy the cute little characters I made here. I knew Milly would be a hit!

Wasn't expecting a giant demonic but friendly blacksmith girl. I feel like the pacing in the beginning is a bit quick, you meet quite the cast of characters and get lots of upgrades pretty early. But I really love the mecha HR Giger aesthetic.

That opening sequence upon hitting the beach is insane. The entire moon shatters, giant demon-birds that roar loud enough to shake the world, and an angel for good measure. Sound effects were on-point.

That jump dive mid dialog looked like you shared a hug with the grub, that was weirdly touching

The aesthetic of this game is so cool

The Scyth dude plays a Hurdy Gurdy. That is awesome. Shame the dev didnt kind of mimic one in the music. This game is so unique. I am going to have to go back an look into the other works. Oh. An thumbs up for Milly.

We have: Top Gear Metal Gear Symphogear Guilty Gear Now we have, Angel's Gear

Milly is 10/10 best creature

So glad the dialog continued after you accidentally left the scene. I find this game weirdly cute in a way.

21:20 Did you time that dash to get the hug? Well done

this is how you make games this is how you make demos this is how you hook the sh!t outta players instant classic

That jump diving mechanic looks so fun and satisfying. It reminds me of the Helldivers jump dive system. Speed runners are gonna love that!

The soldier's movement and expressions remind me of metal slug soldier movement. If they were stuck in some crazy horror land

careless whisper at the 26:08 boss battle lol

The characters are endearing, the plot is fabulous. The bosses are a little two-dimensional, but that is to be expected from a metroidvania. I want to pet the grub-man, and hug him too! :) Also, ABG, if you don't cover the full release of the game, I don't know if I could live with the suspense. xD (Please cover this gem of a game!)

02:30 is rather funny between the sheer obliteration that should be "realistically" caused both by a moon being destroyed and then the ludicrous speed of the descent *and* landing of Deus-Vain right next to the player character. The realism of 11:55 with the Soldier's little freaked out reaction to the surprise first use of the radio by Natya is still far funnier though.

This game reminds me of both the "Blame!" and "Berserk" mangas, which makes it instantly good in my book. Also, Natya is just a top-tier waifu material right here!👌

The aesthetic is nice and the characters interesting enough, but the pacing feels fast with how quickly we went from "I just woke up" to "Heres the big-bad we saw at the start".

Ah sweet! Bio-mechanical Eldritch horrors beyond my comprehension!

That intro music hits just too good man. You can just FEEL the passion in it

26:00 that music is definitely an alternate version of the sexy saxophone thing

Milly is wholesome for such an apocalyptic game

This game has really great sound design, with the glaring exception of the grating overlapping footstep sound. It's made even more obvious by the lack of any real background music.

When the dragon went ***THQ*** I felt that.

Kinda looks like old metroid, but with dialogs and dismemberment I like it

Kalameet at the beginning and the Dead Space stomp, this guy wears his influences on his sleeves, doesn't he?

The puns at the start always get me lol.

The audio-visual atmosphere is on point. Hope this game has a demo in the coming steam next fest.

Really liked both visuals and audio. Too early to judge the story, but everything else is worth keeping an eye out for it.

This game is now on my wishlist. I NEED more of it, it’s so dark and fascinating!

2:23 protag: "maybe if I pretend to be a dog just taking a stroll at the beach the gun towers won't see me?"

Isaac Clarke gets transported into H.R. Giger's dimension... Weird combination but effective...

26:50 Was that Careless whisper?😩

This is something I not only look forward to, but something I actively anticipate playing

>coming Valentine's day Ah yes, of course, the perfect gift for your eldritch significant other, I'm sure.

This seems like BLASPHEMOUS but actually bonkers and I am here for it. Michael Bay WISHES his movies had the oomph that intro sequence has!! I think the Angel's sprite looks amateurish/toony next to the dragon's sprite and I agree with other commenters here that the animations could be better...but still. I am INTRIGUED!

Even before the games is fully out, Natya is best girl 💀. Also felt bad for charlie... The art is really cool and Im into platformer shooter games like this. Might pick it up later

Yggy looks a lot like the tree from UMK3 ¿? I dig it

This, makes me remember of how "I and a few of my friends at the time" how We, Imagined the game Nosferatu would be on the SNES. But thats not what we got.. I like this game. Like to see more games posted from A.B.G. on SWITCH+XBOX!!!

man the outro is the golden part of the vid 🤣

The sound design is so amazing. Feels very unsettling, gritty and similar to old 80's or 90's games, something modern photorealistic apocalyptic horror can't scratch.

46:31 I realy like that "credits" scene. Its funny and references said game.

34:49 ABG let the inner gamer come out for a sec there

Pretty cool game concept!

This so legit so good. Soooo good.

I can't unseen Natya as Neco Arc especially with the facial expressions, tho ngl im interested with this game.

Poor guy at the start must've been like "...I don't remember having eaten those shrooms before the trip..."

Dragon that breathes BWAAA from the trailers?

This and you made me want to play metroidvania games again it just looks interesting

Looking good! wishlisting this now. Also love that running jump animation where you just splat face first into the ground :D

So I may be stupid, the whole time I was thinking “this must be inspired by vomitoreum, it must be.” And I go over to dev’s channel and I see they made vomitoreum.

Anybody else hear Careless Whisper in one of the boss themes??

It's a testament to Scumhead's style that I can immediately pin one of their games in half a second or less

There should be more creepy 2D video games. I love this genre. Someone should create a 2D Hellraiser video game where the main character plays with the puzzle box and is dragged into Leviathan's hell, the maze where the cenobite reside and you have to re-find the puzzle box so you can get out of hell. The cenobites could be like the bosses at the end of a section of the maze and stuff.

That dragon speaks PS1 intro.

2:47 ooooo the haunter in the dark.

oh man I love the sound effects. From the heavy footsteps to the ambience of howling winds and the classic drip drops in cave/sewer areas... I've loved hearing this in old classic RE games.

Frankly I feel like the best criticism a game can have is that it is too short. What is here is really, really good, but at the same time it leaves me wanting more (especially with how it ends.) Really hope there's a continuation to it of some kind in the future, either as an update, DLC, or an outright sequel.

Loving the sound design on this one.

21:27 literally yeets himself out of a conversation.

I feel like I missed something. Like, the character lost their arm or something? I blinked and I missed it, is what it felt like. I'm slightly confused on that part, haha. And the demon was killed, so you unlock that. But then you kinda also just unlock the angel part too? what did I miss, I'm confused a little bit.

Can't Agree more the soundtrack was very cool!

Reject thy flesh, embrace the steel my brother.

" Festinating " That chin stroking animation cracked me up. Im gonna have to start copying that around my kids.

Just started and the music is already real damn good. I have a bad feeling that helping Milly will turn out in tragedy.

God I'm so pleased to see your growth dude.

I really love the jokes you crack in your intros and outros, this humour is right up my alley

This game is... Weirdly charming. A mechanical virus in a Metroidvania with some Deadspace inspiration and I'm sure a mix of other stuff I'm not familar with has made something quite strange but endearing imo, that's really the best way I can describe it. The whole time I'll admit I was confused but it was still fun to watch- except the flesh wall area, few things creep me out or make me uncomfortable and that's one of them, just how wrong and unnerving that area is really fits into the horror genre quite well. Characters are all likeable as well, though the player character has some janky animation, especially with climbing ladders lol. I'll allow that though, though it's unfortunate that things clearly got triggered outta order so the ending is a bit hard to follow, as if the names of stuff and world lore wasn't already confusing. I will say though that I wasn't entirely a fan of the player character's walk animation because he kinda just seems to be barely shambling along, but I suppose that actually makes sense with the ending of the video, even though that seems like it was supposed to be more around the middle if things hadn't gotten a bit messed up, guy kinda actually was hardly alive by the looks of things so they must be built different or something ^^' Overall enjoyed watching this and thank the algorithm for this view because I didn't know this channel existed a week ago and dude, what is with your intros? Never change lmao, I hate that you made me laugh at your dumb jokes >:)

The sound in this game is absolutely amazing 👏👏👏

when i saw the punch, stomp, and the shoot, my first thought was; "Yup, this guy is a Dead Space fan".

wooaawww ... great concept. thx

8:55 Milly looks fine to me

I like the references to Dead Space.

People are saying Giger in comments but I'm getting more of a 80s/early90s anime vibe, the ultraviolent biomechanical stuff with a dash of Angel's Egg thrown in. Also I love how you're programmed at this point, like so many that play these kind of games, to avoid contact with any falling water drops.

This game looks amazing, thank you introducing it to me!

great looking game, some of the animations are a little rough looking, like climbing ladders. i will keep an eye on this game.

I was truly invested into watching this game, only for it to be a demo. It reminds me of classic Metroid so much where we don't know who the protagonist exactly is, but they are capable of doing so much and their identity is thoroughly hidden.

This reminds me of iron blood a bit. Anyone else reminded of it when they saw the monsters?

Inner Id’s battle song sounds very familiar doesn’t it.

Proof that these videos help sell games. Adding it to my cart on Steam. I mean that intro music alone warrants a buy

Loved this game more than I thought I would (usually don't like this style for some personal taste reasons), and your gameplay was awesome to see as usual! I'm sure many agree that you're one of the best no commentary let's players around! You probably get comments like this a nauseating amount, but seriously loving these new little animation additions too! Huge props to you, the game creator, and if someone else is creating/helping to create those fun animations!!

Either there was recently a pixel-art platformer game jam, or Bobbert found out he's good at these grim ones.

I thought of a game based on BLAME! or Biomega with Killy navigating a cybermaze and facing abominations.

I smiled every time you flopped onto the ground from doing a long jump. Great animation.

That checkpoint bone totem animation is awesome.

The dragon roars in BASE DROP!!!

Broken God and SCP vibes

I love these characters so much. I wanna comfort Charlie, Milly's precious, and Nat's literally me. They're all gonna meet horrible fates when I play this, won't they?

i like how the walking footsteps are Counterstrike Condition Zero sounds haahah

a knight with firearms, cool

I fuckin love charlie omg

Snake: What do you know about Angel Gear?

So I’m guessing the events in the demo aren’t in chronological order of what the game will be. Locke talks about you killing Dues-vain, but what you killed was your inner evil. Also, when exactly did you conquer your inner good? Unless I’m missing something, the pacing confused me a bit. Still looking forward to the game.

2:45 a wild bass dragon has appeared!

26:50 Are you kidding? That's Careless Whisper you son of a...:D

Yo THAT OPENING SONG! I'm hyped just cuz of THAT!

Dude, I LOVE scumhead. It's good to see their games on here!

Pixel Black Dragon Kalameet is not real, he can't hurt you. Pixel Black Dragon Kalameet: 2:43

XD 27:00 Is that Careless Whisper? XD Deadpool would approve.
