Looking great! As others have said, it really does capture the essence of the original. As far as remakes go, this definitely looks to be one of, if not the, most authentic I've ever seen. Good job indeed. Looks like it's perfectly capable of standing strong on its own merits too
Just curious to find out what you guys are referring to as the health system? Do you mean the MO-style ring of birds when Abe begins to chant? I thought at first that may be just a part of the placeholder possession effect, since the Slig shots and grinders etc. are all seen to be instant kills? I might've missed something.
