The artwork has a charme. But the gameplay needs a lot of polish. It's very clunky. I don't get how so many people can play it without problems.3 found this helpful

It's janky junk. Would do much better as a comic book, as a game this art is wasted.
Alter Cosmos is an unconventional science-fiction adventure that wears its eccentricity proudly, combining a comic-book visual style, satirical dystopian themes, and classic point-and-click mechanics into a distinctly niche experience. Developed by Pyramid Games and published by Pyramid Lab, the game immediately sets itself apart through its bizarre premise and unapologetically stylized presentation, asking players to step into a grim yet absurd future where authoritarian control, genetic experimentation, and dark humor collide. The narrative centers on Aliencat, a mutated cyborg feline created through alien experimentation and forced to survive in a brutal, totalitarian society.

Awesome game, it is a great buy. I like the artwork a lot, it is well done
