Disjunction

Disjunction is a real time puzzle game, and the puzzle is always "How do I get behind these guys / robots one at a time so I can hit them over the head with a stick?" There are three player characters the player alternates between, each with three special moves, four if you count their gun. Level layouts are usually such that you don't need them, but they give the player some wiggle room if they make an error in approach or execution. Enemies of a few different types follow repeating routes until made suspicious, and are just oblivious enough that your actions in one room don't bug the enemies in adjacent ones, so failure cascades don't propagate forward. Theming is pretty strong, both the cyberpunk vibes and the repeated question of "Does this NPC deserve death, mercy, or punishment? How about THIS one? [Etc]" The pixel art looks solid and game elements are clearly presented without ambiguity. It runs a hair longer than it feels like it ought to and gets repetitive towards the end, not really mixing things up in new ways but just spacing out the save points to inflate difficulty. Up to that point it's pretty engaging! I've seen comparisons to Hotline Miami, but I don't think that's an applicable reference - enemies are too predictable, dying has too long a penalty, and survivability is too high. I think it's more like an 'Invisible Inc' action sequel, ported to a modified version of the Intravenous engine, with the difficulty scaled way, way down. A strong entry from the family that put this game together. I paid $2 for it, but I think US$6 to 10 would be fair.

The game has a good story, mixes between cyberpunk, metalgear solid 1 mechanics and a bit of RPG. Deserves at least a try if some of the things mentioned before are of your like.

Simple to learn and engaging

A fair warning to those experiencing slow movement speed in the game. Try changing graphics settings or your computer's cooling. I had my laptop on my lap and the game was slow. Next time I played at my desk (a lot more airflow) and it was too fast. LOL Great game with good story. Kinda repetitive, but challenging till the end. My total play time is 13.5 hours. Tip: If you are far outside a room, you may be able to snipe down enemies without alerting others.

I don't usually play stealth games but this one has guns and was on sale, so I thought I'd give it a spin. After the F-bomb was dropped in the first 3 mins, I was interested 😂. The cyber punk synthwave atmosphere is a very nice bonus. Story seems to have potential for some depth... But we'll see... Gameplay mechanics are not hyper realistic nor does this make them seem out of place. A hint of resource management to top it off. Just something about cyber ci-fi themed type games that makes for some awsome Saturday night entertainment. Don't worry No spoilers... But personally if there has to be a body count then so be it 🤣🤣. I definitely recommend. Nice work devs. Remember!, Have fun!
