This game is geninely so good. Every fight felt tense and many times I had to debate whether or not use a bullet. The cave section was so tense and terrifying, the atmosphere was amazing and not to even mention how GOOD the art and animations are. Fantastic work for everyone who worked on this, an actual peak fangame!
It's SO GOOD!!! I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE COMPLETE GAME.
I have played every major fangame to come out of the LISA sphere and I don't think there is a single released project that beats this DEMO for a fangame. PLEASE play it oh my goodness i love it so much
The characters are on point, the premise is interesting, the combat is pretty fun, lots of enemy variations, great artwork ofc, nuanced writing and a surprising amount of player builds. The thing that really brings it down though is the automatic jump script. It's really unintuitive at moments and can easily kill you for just following the game's established mechanics. I know jump scripts are literally Sisyphus' work but about 5 times I've had to replay 15-25 minutes of the game because a jump script decided that a 2 tile gap jump should plunge you into death instead of the other ledge. I really didn't want to be the one asshole who's negative but it really pissed me off to the point of wanting to drop the game. Otherwise, good times.
Haven't played it 10/10
Edit: it's great give it a try. It also would be nice to know when the game gonna be complete. (Before fights inspect the enemies since it helps WAYYY too much)

LISA: The Heartless
WARNING: Playing LISA: The Painful AND LISA: The Joyful is HIGHLY advised before playing this game.
This is a fan-project driven through pure passion by multiple like-minded developers that connected together to make a tribute for the tragic world of LISA.
Let me know what you think!
It is the end of days.
The world is sickly and frail. Mankind is doomed, with the unlucky few survivors subsisting solely on the blighted earth or their own barbarous cruelty.
As the final generation of children — those born just before the Flash — finally begin to reach adulthood, it is made clear that there is nothing left to inherit but bones and ash.
Play as Cleaver, a young, soft-spoken warrior raised under the vicious religious doctrine of “King” — who, during a routine patrol, discovers something that may very well decide the penultimate fate of mankind.
Explore Haven Island, a desolate fracture of Olathe far removed from the mainland.
4-5 hours of content, with three difficulty settings.
Three main characters with distinct motivations, play styles and personalities.
Unforgiving, delicately balanced gameplay. Keen strategists and explorers are rewarded. The weak suffer.
Soul-crushing atmospheric tracks and adrenaline-fuelled combat songs all in an original soundtrack.
A ludicrous amount of secrets. You will not find them all.
Distinct emphasis on atmosphere - see all the beauty, and all the rot, in it's rawest form.
Be warned! Heartless is a game of difficulty. You will certainly struggle if you rush in with no plan. Strategy is key to survival. Not every fight is meant to be brute forced upon discovery. You may suffer and toil, scraping by from battle to battle — or you may thrive and crush all who dare oppose you in your crusade to victory. Use everything to your disposal. Every fight has been balanced to the utmost. You will encounter all sorts of opponents with varying weaknesses and strengths. Do you have the strength to survive?
This is only the demo! It encompasses two of four planned chapters. Everything you see is subject to changes in the final release.
All in all, welcome to a soul-ruining gaming experience.
