Light Years Apart

I wanted to like this game, the premise was cool. Be a cool law-defying space-faring legend. They did that part of the game really well. You defy the law and be in space, and that's about it. I like the other games and loved Mecha Ace but this was just a drag the whole time. None of the characters felt emotionally controlled, and they person they really tried it for barely worked. I wouldn't recommend this game but these devs are definitely people to look at.

Probably the most enjoyment I've gotten out of a Choice Of game in a while. It's a fun sci-fi adventure that's grounded while still remaining interesting. It's a little rough around some edges, but all of these games are. I really liked the characters, I liked the narrative, and I feel like things could have ended up drastically differently had I made even a few different decisions. If I had to deliver any complaints, I'd say the stats screen wasn't particularly polished, with a few just raw true/false statements in there, which also occasionally bled into the game itself, like when I started a chapter it would occasionally say "if stores greater than 3" before launching into the opening text, which took me out of things slightly. Also, I felt like the ambiguously gendered lover/bestie character was a bit too hollow, even for what it's supposed to be. The scene in which I chose to confront said character about some turmoil in our past felt particularly vague on purpose, so I don't really understand the character's inclusion other than filling a romantic quota. Those things aside, though, I felt this was an enjoyable little romp in worldbuilding with a lot of character freedom mixed…

Firefly meets the Culture. Interesting setting, capably written. Short but sweet. It feels like more was originally planned, but I enjoyed what was there.

I love this game so much. It's one of my favorite IFs, I first purchased it on my cell phone on the omnibus app but wanted to be able to play on my SteamDeck or my PC if I felt like it to got it here too. I feel like this one is so underrated but it's well worth the read and I highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys scifi stories.

That's a weird one. There isn't much in terms of a "game" here; not at least in a sense that we are accustomed to in the Choices. Your char's personality is pretty much set in from a start - you can only change name and gender; most of the story and "decisions" you make also seems to be hard scripted (in a "I guess I have no choice..." way") up until the very end... and even then it's more of a binary "will I suddenly ally myself to bad guys that were trying to kill me" type of choice. ...but the thing is - that story game is forcing on you is, like, really good! Like you are a fun, easy going space contrabandist trying to hide behind the mask of humor from the dark past of being a spy-turned-assasin! And the world is, like, governed by two rival ANTROPOLOGICAL schools, who funded colonies to study extreme forms of human behavior! And there are weird twin siblings hiding from the government you are trying to save! And sassy flight-computer! And the writing is, like, really good! I am reluctantly giving this a thumb up; mostly because I cannot force myself to give a thumb down to a work that is so clearly a labour of love. But I really hope that an author will move on to a more tr…

This was a fun little sci-fi adventure, I ran into a bug where it didn't have an opening bracket on my computer/AI's name, and there was a part near the end where I didn't realize I was talking to my ex and thought I was talking to my sister because there wasn't enough descriptions on who was doing what, but the situations were fun and I feel like my run was almost too good- but I really enjoyed it!
