I've found a Dark Messiah-inspired action sandbox where you can make banana spike traps and possess enemies to walk off cliffs, and I need it now

The Adventures of Sir Kicksalot is a very fitting name for the Dark Messiah of Might and Magic-inspired sandbox action game by solo developer Stéphane Le Roy. You sure do a lot of kicking: punting enemies off cliffs, booting their weapons out of their hands, and even lobbing barrels at them.

But there's a lot more going on than just kicking. After playing the demo for myself, it's got the bones of an immersive sim, letting you interact with just about anything to take out enemies—or avoid them—in a myriad of ways.
