The ABC

The ABC more like the uninstall

The ABC is an unusual independent adventure that seems far more interested in expressing strange ideas than following the conventions of a typical genre game. Developed and published by Brahmana "Perfect", it uses a colorful 3D presentation to deliver an experience built around exploration, simple activities, and a deliberately abstract story. Although it was made with SMILE GAME BUILDER, The ABC does not really behave like the traditional role-playing games commonly associated with that development environment. Instead, it combines several straightforward gameplay concepts with philosophical themes, resulting in something that feels distinctly personal and experimental. At the center of the story is Hee-chan, a young girl described as possessing a particularly strong sense of justice while also being prone to losing her temper. Her ordinary understanding of the world is disrupted during a dream in which she encounters Brahmana and is introduced to Brahmanism for the first time. Hee-chan initially has no knowledge of what Brahmanism represents, making her encounter with Brahmana an intentionally mysterious introduction to the game's larger ideas. Brahmana, meanwhile, has his own r…

While this isn't an RPG Maker asset flip, "The ABC" looks exactly like the asset flips made with it. It's a bunch of pixel assets from a construction kit combined with cringe-inducing writing. This one was made with Smile Game Builder, a weak ripoff of RPG Maker, and the developer couldn't even work out how to make a JRPG with Smile Game Builder, instead we get a crappy adventure game. At least they used the 3D engine... but this is still garbage. The topic of the game is garbage evangelism of Indian religious practices. Which has no place in gaming. It's pure cringe. Construction kits like Smile Game Builder create garbage that offers no value to PC gamers. The engines are poor and the pixelcrap is ugly, usually always asset flips, and insulting to gamers when compared to professionally developed games. This shouldn't be considered a sincerely, genuinely made game, it's just a garbage kitbash. Video game construction kits like this are just toys for making small demos and things to pass around friends. They're not supposed to be used as a substitute for actually knowing how to make real video games, which is a complex process that requires dozens or hundreds of talented d…

I am not sure there is much to say other than... What? Got through about 2 minutes before I had to uninstall and move on.

That's five minutes I won't get back. There is clearly a lot of mistranslations. And not to mention the game mechanics are janky. There's no tutorial or anything, your just thrown in. I mention this because the game has an unusual control layout. Not to mention the characters chasing you seem to run on an AI of some sort? Either way there is TOO MANY characters chasing you.

There's nothing in this game; the loading takes longer than the gameplay. Pass it by; it's junk.
