Really good game so far. Ok, 54 hours in now. So its not a short game lol. I think I'm getting close to the end though as I just got some Flows that suggest its end game. There are however, a large amount of glitches in this game.

Very charming RPG maker game. A unique setting with likeable characters and fun mechanics to learn. A journey you'll remember for a long time, give it a shot

I watched the opening cutscene and got to the first part of the tutorial, which features the first encounter. The term encounter is important here. It was so good that I immediately closed the game to write this review and buy the other game by this developer. This review is not sarcastic. I don't want to spoil anything so download the game and play it for yourself. I wish more games were created like this one. They are the future. Will update review once I have played more.

RPG Maker strikes again! "Path of Vidya" is one of hundreds of low effort retro-pixel RPG Maker asset/construction kit flips spamming the Steam catalog, made with the RPG Maker video game construction kit... in their own words, "Our easy to use tools are simple enough for a child." Like all RPG Maker "games", this is essentially a bunch of low quality/canned assets from RPG Maker coupled with a cringeworthy high school anime club fan fiction. The best part about this RPG Maker asset flip is that it's not a high school anime club dropout fan-fiction about the developers imaginary anime girlfriend. That is, unfortunately, the only good part about this RPG Maker asset flip. Which is a high school anime club dropout fan-fiction that tries to be "edgy" and "meta" by being a video game about video games. Jesus. If The Matrix was made with RPG Maker pixelcrap, the Wachowski sisters would have been tarred and feathered and kicked out of Hollywood forever. As with all RPG Maker games, the poor quality engine displays badly in fullscreen and doesn't have full HD support or any graphics tweaking options, making this unacceptable for any dedicated modern PC gamer. The point can be mad…

Games like Undertale that remember what you did

Undertale's own listing calls it the RPG where you don't have to destroy anyone. Games like Undertale that keep that idea: permanent choices, fights you can talk past, worlds that notice.

Games like Slay the Spire that keep the branching climb

Most games like Slay the Spire copy the cards and lose the map. These keep the risky-or-safe choice, from a three-floor train to a deck made of poker hands.

Games like Dying Light, where nightfall changes the rules

Games like Dying Light are easy to find if you only want parkour or only want zombies. These eight keep the part that matters: a city that becomes a different place after dark.

Games like Portal 2, where one idea carries the whole game

Games like Portal 2 all share one habit: teach a single impossible trick, then spend a campaign breaking it. From rewinding objects through time to Escher geometry that loops back on itself.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
