Syuukun in Mirror World

⠀

"Syuukun in Mirror World" is a weird and really badly made "art" disaster... the developer pushes this as a "walking sim" but that wasn't my experience with the game, it's more of a puzzler as you control an avatar stuck in a mirror and need to guide them out. The godawful crap visuals and weak technical implementation are described away as "art" choices... I don't buy it, lamest excuse ever for just being bad at game development. And it's okay to be bad at game development, just don't publish crap you know is bad where gamers can see it! We're here for real games! It's true that games can be art, of course... art is where the pinnacle of creativity, craftsmanship and expertise come together to form something greater than the sum of its parts. This product does a poor job of all of those three. The Mona Lisa would not be hanging in the Louvre if she was drawn as a stick figure in crayon on a napkin. This comes across as something unambitious and "simple" in terms of implementation and technical quality and depth, more like a game dev tutorial or an experiment. It's a classic case of a developer prioritizing the low effort needed to get a game listed on Steam over the actu…

Very Cute Game, the puzzle technique was very creative and I had a lot of fun with it. The art style is also very cute, I especially liked the dropkick.

Let's call this game a torture device - and yes, crank the volume up.

Terrible game, terrible concept, like the worst soundtrack in a game ever.
