DON'T GIVE UP: A Cynical Tale

What if Undertale was written by a pretentious Hipster (besides YIIK).

Had to put this down after wiping the party battle twice due to just plain not being able to see what's going on, but I was pretty close to stopping anyway. The main character is an ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ and I just can't see myself carrying them through whatever redemption arc or weirdness the creator has in store for me. Maybe I'll pick it up some other day after three margaritas and tequila shots, but otherwise no. Sorry.

What even was this

Just as the game promised me. It is full of fun, action, adventure and an endless arsenal of cheeky sarcasm for the journey. I also love the art during the battle scenes!! The story is really good and I want to keep learning more about our MC and everyone else. This game is perfect for when I am in the mood for something not too deep to play into but just for a slice of good fun to pass some time. Highly recommend. Also there is a good sprinkle of good cameos in the game LOL, I noticed two or three (and took some screenshots while I was at it XD ) Big thumbs up to the devs and publisher!!

indie

Really enjoying this game so far. It's clearly a labor of love and scratches that itch for a game taking place in a modern setting. It's clearly pretty personal for the developer and you can tell they put a lot into making this. The game itself so far seems to be 70% funny 30% serious, getting quite dark at times. Much of the humor lands, ranging from relatable observations to some cringe comedy, but generally you'll be rooting for the main character as opposed to laughing at him. And there's enough humor to make the moments where things get serious really stand out. I did encounter one bug that froze my character in place and made me have to reset, and I'd have made the autosave function a little more generous, but this is a unique project and is telling an engaging story that's funny, compelling, and relatable. I recommend giving it a shot.
