So this game is almost an enjoyable experience, however, it is held back by many bugs which really doesn't lend well to the games "Experiment and see what happens" game play. and that's whats a shame about it, with some fixes such as fixing input so I don't have to press pause and un-pause to regain my controller input, or restarting the whole game so I can do another run. A Simple request it may be, but the request was to endure the bugs rather than anything plot related!2 found this helpful
Please note: This game will NOT open on Mac despite what the store page says. I usually like this type of game, but I can't recommend this one. There are a couple glitches, which isn't a huge deal, but the story leaves many, many unanswered questions and doesn't make much sense overall. This is likely intentional, and the dev is probably going for a surreal narrative, but I don't think it succeeds in pulling off a satisfying surreal experience either. The dev has stated that he has lost the game and can no longer add or change anything, so the way it is now is how it will be from now on. On the bright side, it runs fine for the most part, and I didn't experience any crashes or soft locks or anything of that nature.1 found this helpful
The game was decent at best, unfinished at the worst. Plenty of bugs to go around with any playthrough and some were bad enough to ruin the experience such as getting stuck on some text screens. I generally enjoyed the idea of the game as well as the setting, but thought that it could've been applied in a much better way. Overall, 6/10, unfinished game full of bugs but with some form of potential if it received any attention from the developer.1 found this helpful
There is a decent game inside, however the game is clearly unfinished: lots of bugs, missing polish, crashs, barely music in it and I assume there was also more content planned at some point, but the dev already abandoned the game. At least he just deleted all the broken achievements.
i am changing my review based on my convo with the dev. they did take their time and attempt to fix the broken achievements and ended up removing them which is good. outside of that the game itself is fun and i did not encounter many issues while playing,
That was certainly different. Plays like a bad acid trip that doesn't make a whole lot of sense. I'm usually good with the esoteric stuff, but I really can't tell quite what the designer was trying to do here. That being said, I enjoyed the experience for what it was and recommend it if for no other reason than wanting to encourage more "off the beaten path" game design.
