✦ AI summary

Project Parallel impresses players with its engaging story, excellent voice acting, and innovative world-switching mechanic that makes platforming feel dynamic and high-stakes, though some note the graphics are basic and wish for more abilities in what is currently a brief demo experience. Opinion is divided on whether the concept delivers beyond its premise, with some finding it a compelling introduction worth trying for free, while others feel it reads more as an advertisement for a future product than a complete game.

Cool concept, great voice acting! I normally don't care about story but the voice acting had me hunting for the blue chips to learn more about my parents.

I love the story!! It's heartfelt, relatable, and very well voice acted. The world switching mechanic makes the movement feel exciting and high stakes. The main character's design is SO cool! Not to mention the music goes hard af. I kind of wish there were more abilities, but seeing as this is a demo I don't hold that against the devs; hopefully they'll be able to build it out more in the future. Definitely give it a try!

Game is very short, about 30m. But the idea of platform changing realities is very good. It's true not best graphics, but I liked it. And for free!

"Project Parallel" is is not a game. It's an advertisement for a product presumably also planned to be called "Project Parallel". It's a garbage, amateurish 1:1 ripoff of Mirror's Edge only worse in all respects and incredibly janky, if this advertisement is any indication. But this isn't completely relevant because this is not the Project Parallel full game, it's just an advertisment for it, so it's not correct to try to review that completely distinct product. We must instead review this for what it is... an advertisement. If you enjoy advertisements, you can consume them for free on the web or on Youtube without needing to add them to your game library, download them, and then launch the advertising. It's impossible in a general sense to recommend people should do that over playing real, full games on Steam, and that applies here with "Project Parallel" too. Usually the purpose of these advertisements is to get you to shell out money to the developer to buy the full product, but the developer hasn't bothered actually making a product you can buy, leaving this as an advertisement for nothing. We must question what value this pointless advertising has for gamers... and th…

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.

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.
