Our take on Esse Proxy
The pitch foregrounds style and a tangled story, but its concrete play description centers on lethal shooting and learning through repetition. The three-character setup adds different abilities and perspectives; the page gives less detail about how their stories connect or how secrets are found.
What is Esse Proxy?
Esse Proxy is a 3D shooter set in a dystopian future, following three characters whose stories are connected by past and future events.
Each character has different abilities, strengths, weaknesses, and playstyles. Combat combines fast action with tactical decisions: a missed shot or a misstep can end a run, and the game expects players to learn through repeated attempts. Finding secrets reveals more of the story. The vendor presents the game as difficult, with combat and discovery at the center of its structure.
