Fast-paced shooter SPRAWL zero has a must-play demo out now

Mixing what I can only describe as vibes somewhere between Half-Life, F.E.A.R. and Quake, the upcoming SPRAWL zero has an impressive demo you need to check out.

In SPRAWL Zero, you take on the role of FIVE, a cybernetically enhanced supersoldier. As the city plunges into chaos, you must take down a radical techno-religious group. You can choose multiple paths and alternate approaches, while wielding a massive arsenal of weapons along with FIVE's cybernetics as tools of destruction.

There's some fun physics in this one with object destruction and item throwing that gives it a really good feel. I haven't been this instantly impressed in a retro-fuelled FPS in a while, the last probably being Selaco but now SPRAWL zero is firmly on my radar and my wishlist. Some top action in this so I can't wait to see more from it.
