LogInThe Axis Unseen will be released this month.
Nate Purkeypile, the former Lead Artist at Bethesda, who worked on Skyrim, Fallout 3/4/76, Starfield, Metroid Prime 3, and BloodRayne 2, has been developing his own game The Axis Unseen, which was announced in 2021 and now has a demo.
In the horror heavy metal game, you hunt nightmarish monsters from ancient folklore, collect their enhanced sense powers, and discover elemental arrows. The game features a beautiful open world that you can explore, uncovering its mysteries and delving into its terrifying atmosphere. "Beware, the hunter is also the hunted," reads the game's description.

The game's UI is implemented in its visuals: tattoos on your hand show your health and active powers, you have to check your quiver to see how many arrows you have, and your bow shows how much energy you have collected.
