Talk Forward is Talkback (based off of AOSP), with a more VoiceOver native feeling to it.
Download and details, can be found at:

But in short after playing with it for around 10 minutes, most things work well! Only thing that's missing is split tapping on the screen which native Talkback has.
I am guessing that Talk Forward could be on the play store at some point, since I did see a link to a 404 not found page to it under the advanced settings. With that being said though, my main concern, is that I hope it actually 'can' be added to it, given what's going to be happening with sideloading (installing unknown apps) in a few months' time.
I will definitely be supporting its development when I can.
PS. Unlike Samsung's version of Talkback (until OneUI 9 rolls around) or if not using Jiesuo premium, Talk Forward does allow you to use your free Google Gemini API key for describing Images/screens. Or support the project with a onetime payment like I'll be doing in the future, which also unlocks said feature.
