Yeah, if people were to read his dev blog, they would find out that this is just the very first tech demo. It's not really supposed to be shared outside those that are most avid to follow their work. Give Toffi 3-6 months, and this game will be much, much more expanded.
The first installment was interesting, but it didnt resonate neither with him nor his blog's audience, hence why the shift to beat-em-up. Except it's new engine work, so they have to redo swathes of scripting, utilizing the new tools they got and new possibilities to implement (this build, for example, introduces a much better cumshot animation than he had in every other game of his)
