Gray Skies, Dark Waters

How did I clock the twist within the first 15 minutes? While the themes of mental illness were interesting, I do feel like the plot revolving around Vivian was predictable once you catch on to the first few context clues. The foreshadowing was as subtle as a red hot brick, and the weird audio quality often threw me for a loop. It was an alright read, but hopefully this studio improves on those aspects as they do have potential.

Wow, I just realised that it only has 20 reviews. Play this thing if you like point & clicky games and walking sims that actually have story. It's a perfect autumn melancholy game.

Nice, wholesome little game with a deep and interesting story and beautiful art. The characters are well done and the voice acting adds to the immersion. However, like many other reviewers have pointed out, I also don't like the 3D characters, who don't fit into the beautiful 2D backgrounds and just have dead, hollow expressions. I think the story would've been much better served with fitting 2D characters. But it's okay, the story and overall experience is still great.

The best way to describe this game is 'small, but perfectly formed'.
