One of my internet pals suggested I try the Half Sword1I have no idea what Half Sword means. I assume you get the pointy part of the sword, at least. demo on Steam. “It uses physics a lot,” he said.
I loaded up the demo and was dismayed to find you can’t rebind the keys, so I had to use WASD. I am weird and use EDSF, but I figured I could adjust for one demo.
Once in the demo proper, I found my character laying on the ground, dressed only in his skivvies. It looked like it would be cold and kind of uncomfortable. I was told to press forward to stand. I did, and I did. I then walked over to a table that had some kind of dagger on it, along with a nice pair of pants. The demo said Press E/Q to interact. I tried both keys but my interaction seemed rather limited. The pants and dagger remained untouched. I eventually sort of rubbed up against the table and managed to knock over a bench next to it. Progress.
I then wandered off into the dark and the music got Very Dramatic. I found another nearby table, with a lamp and an axe. Maybe there was a sword, too? I tried interacting with them. I failed. But then the demo told me to use the mouse to swing my arm. Presumably while holding a weapon, like an axe or sword.
I went back to the first table and swung my arm. I knocked the pants onto the floor. The music continued to be Very Dramatic. I knocked the dagger onto the floor, too.
Then I realized four minutes had passed and exited the demo.
I conclude with a screenshot of my internet pal in the demo. As you can see, he could also not get his pants on, but did actually pick up a weapon, then broke one of his arms wielding it.
