Indie Wavemakers Spoke with Trueworld Studios design lead Joshua T, and asked what kinds of players besides fps fans might be drawn to UNYIELDER, Joshua had this to say “So it is quite an intense experience, I think anyone who’s looking for an intense experience will enjoy this quite a bit. But we don’t usually play Shooters so as someone who like me yes like as someone who is like not that; like if you don’t really know if you want to get into intense fast paced Shooters I think what we have is a very good onboarding gateway that’s a good balancing experience.”
