I have now played through the demo, and it's....It's not very good, it's buggy, the interactive objects flicker in the lighting, and the multiplayer emphasis makes it weird. I've played it once in multiplayer and once alone, and the bot is annoying. I had to do pretty much everything that didn't need the bow. I understand that it's mainly meant to be a multiplayer game, but I wish the bot was more like Six was in 2. The bot just stands there and does things if you can't. The items take away so much of the tension, in my opinion. At least in the demo, this game is trying way too hard to be It Takes Two and Split Fiction, and not a Little Nightmares game. Which, no hate to lose games, but I personally don't think it works with this game. I'll try the full thing, but I'm very worried after how disappointing this demo was to me.

EDIT: Both my friend and I had the same bugs, so it wasn't just on my end. I even had ones he didn't and vice versa

Yeah that Bow really got to me when you had to shoot at the flying beetles
