This could have been really interesting. The world-building intrigues me and I think the setting has a lot of potential, but the actual game execution is garbage. One hour in and I've already encountered a significant system settings bug and a game soft-lock. First was the volume setting. After moving the slider to 75% I returned to the menu only to have sound suddenly blasting out of my speakers. Returning to the system settings page, I found that the volume slider had set itself to 1000% Yes, a thousand percent. If I had been listening through headphones, that had the potential for actual hearing damage if that system's volume protection failed or wasn't present. Next was the game soft-lock. Very early on, you find a bike. You need it to progress. But one of your choices is to keep looking around and if you do that, that's it, playthrough over, start a new game. Once you get off the bike to look around, you can never get on it again. That option is never available, so you're stuck and further progression is impossible. You don't die, you don't lose, you're just stuck behind what is obviously a game-breaking bug. So, it's a neat idea. It's an interesting world with many p…

Pros: Cool visuals Nice music (It can be very loud so turn down the volume before playing) Short game Heavily inspired by Disco Elysium Cons: It softlocks which is very annoying Dragging items into inventory is a little finicky sometimes

Cool little short experience Story-wise: really good, doesnt drag out and waste your time its just enough so you can empathise with the characters and it can get its point across Gameplay-wise: not too much gameplay, succeded in making me feel on edge the whole time despite not being truly survival. Kinda sucks that the camera has no xray effects when your character is behind a roof like most 'isometric' games have and the inventory system is really confusing at first. Overall a really cool game that can be finished easily in one sitting with a great story and message. The cherry on top definetly being soundtrack made of songs by Keep It Together

This game is absolute cinema, it's free so naturally it's very short and it has quite a few problems. The art style is gorgeous but with it, it can be sometimes tricky to actually see where you're going. I encountered few soft locks, some bugs, the skill roll system is very surface level and an indication of what you rolled compared to what you needed would have done a lot. But with all that, the sound and music was excellent. The writing was great, the setting was pretty compelling. There were some great moments both sad and funny. The attention to detail like the game constantly commenting on you being naked if you chose to play as a nudist, the game having unique comments on you trying to leave an area as opposed to an invisible wall. And above all else you can die from fuel poisoning AND you can ((accidentally)) kill a child by making them drink bike fuel.
