About flaming/million
A NEW GAME FOUND IN THIS FLAMING DUMPSTER:
follow L.C. through a warped gltich campus during the FRATPARADE. destroy the three (3) police surveillance monuments and rid the campus of masculine oppression. use the queer power of glitches and begin to heal this terrible curse put on us all.
40 - 60 minutes of gameplay
Combining JRPG poetry, my haunted dreams of the SUNY Oswego campus and its infamous local holiday "Bridge Street Run," the tensions of the Covid-19 pandemic, and everything I had learned about glitch/corruption processes up to that point, the game follows a sort of glitch goddess as she uses the glitches developed by her queer community/friends to undo the curses of toxic masculinity around her campus (in the form of alt-right graffiti, overzealous police officers and their monuments, a gay bar turned into a straight bar \, etc).

The game was very cool and taught me about whats going on in the world. The use of visual metaphor and game play to convey the idea of a world that is working against you is pretty cool. This may just be pondering in my part, but the female and male models stacked in top of each other to convey that you are in-between is pretty smart and it's embarrassing to say that it took me awhile to get it. Great game with great mechanical and visual story telling. Hope everyone stays safe and has a great pride.3 found this helpful
This game does nothing well. The "fever dream" aesthetic is annoying rather then trippy, the dialogue is a jumble of incoherent words, and the mechanics are generic. To top it all off, the game is buggy to the point of being unplayable. I highly recommend you don't play this game, there is an uncountable amount of better games on steam.2 found this helpful
The character walks around backwards is that on purpose like a homage to OoT speed run? (That would be cool but …) As for the story I could not figure it out so I stopped reading and explored. Interesting game but have no idea what’s going on. The secret room was cool tho.2 found this helpful

Игра "Flaming/Million" оставила двоякое впечатление. С одной стороны, визуальный стиль, выполненный в пиксельной графике, выглядит достаточно привлекательно и навевает приятные ностальгические воспоминания. Музыкальное сопровождение также неплохое и хорошо дополняет атмосферу. Однако, геймплей кажется довольно однообразным и быстро надоедает. Оригинальность идеи скрещивания жанров есть, но реализация местами хромает. Не хватает разнообразия в противниках и уровнях. Система прогресса также не самая интересная, из-за чего мотивация продолжать играть после нескольких часов постепенно угасает. К плюсам можно отнести неплохую реиграбельность за счет процедурной генерации уровней, но это не спасает от общего ощущения монотонности. В целом, игра может подойти для коротких игровых сессий, чтобы скоротать время, но вряд ли сможет увлечь надолго. Я бы оценил игру на 6 из 10. Ей не хватает более глубокой проработки и большей вариативности.
