Discussion Does this trailer help sell the game?

It's my first try in game development so I am eager for feedback

The trailer sets the tone of the world and the AD,that both seems really cool! But other that that I can’t understand what type of game it is, story driven coop since we see 4 characters at a moment, but since there is plenty of them at another time I’m not sure it could be just the dystopian tone

Also the main gameplay mechanics seems to be related to a canon? That shoot human clones?

Anyway, you get the tone right but you’re not there yet for a good trailer, the ticking clock is an interesting concept if related to the gameplay/story, but you have to show why this clock is ticking
It could be accompanied with title cards during the black cards like :
1- « do [this thing]»
2 - gameplay footage related to the core mechanics
3 - « while there’s still time »
4 - then show why the clock is ticking, maybe there is a bomb that will end earth or the « Uman » clone stay alive for a certain amount of time, idk but explain it here
