PayPalOverload [Steam, Official Site], from some of the people who created Descent is a fantastic title, even with it not being finished it's frantic fun. This latest update is a big one too.
The latest update adds in level 4, Phoebe Peleus, which I've taken a look at in the below video:
Direct Link
They do have more than 4 levels though, since they also have the challenge mode which is incredibly satisfying to play on the higher difficulty levels.
On top of the new mission, they've also added in some ambient sounds to the missions, to make them that little bit more engaging. Your ship has a new exterior, you can now select which "controller" is primary, many gamepad/joystick improvements, the Holo-Guide will no longer show you secret power-ups you haven't yet found yourself and many more improvements.
Overload has also seen some optimizations and plenty of bugs fixed with this latest update and it's smoother than ever.
See the full changelog here. When finished, it's going to be an incredible game considering how fun it is already.

Descent still holds up to its own legacy, it is still the best game of its kind.
Highly recommendedable game, IMO.
But I feel I have really outgrown arena shooters where there is nothing but the twitch reflex gameplay to keep you interested.
The latest Doom or Shadow Warrior have shown that you can spice things up and still have pretty great reflex gameplay alright.
With this, I'm sure I would play for an hour or two and then move on. I really need more than bare bones.
Well, at least multiplayer is planned at some point.
