Pretty confusing why this wasn't at least given to those who pre-ordered, but a pretty great product if you'd like to have the OST more readily available.

Only disappointing thing is this soundtrack doesn't include some tracks from the original DDLC Fan Pack. Most I can somewhat understand, as they weren't used in the actual game and moreso intended as extra content to listen to, but this soundtrack even misses some that are used. These are the other variants of "Okay, Everyone!" used when reading each girl's poems, and the vocal-less version of "Your Reality", which would be a nice addition to bring back.

It'd be nice if they could update the soundtrack to include some of the missing songs, but if not it's still a good collection, and it's great having access to the higher quality versions of the OST.

So far I've played a bit of the game, making my way through Arcade mode multiple times to get a grasp of how some fighters work before attempting the online. I'm no competitive Smash player, but I find this game immensely fun to play.

Here are some positives:
- If you're playing on controller, the right stick preforms some of the directional button-assigned attacks. I found this immensely easier than working with three at once. Now I'm able to focus on dealing damage with the buttons, then working on KO'ing the opponent with the stick.
- Gameplay is kept simple yet fun, feeling fast-paced and less mechanic-heavy compared to Smash Bros. Makes it easier for someone who hasn't tried this kind of game to get into it since there isn't a lot to take in.
- Mechanics are more versatile, such as allowing grabs in mid-air.

Of course there are some cons:
- The right stick changes what moves it does based on whether you're grounded or not. Feels a little unintuitive to have the stick suddenly switch from doing strong attacks to basic attacks when you're airborne. Getting to choose what that stick does, no matter your current state, would be a nice change so it's more dependable. Or even keeping that and allow us to change the states separately, so now we could make the stick do special moves if airborne.
- Limited control customization. Attacks can be changed via the character selection screen, but... why there? There is an options menu where most would expect them to go. Even then, things like movement keys are unable to be changed at all without file editing. A major downside for keyboard+mouse users.
- Slightly buggy AI. AI would sometimes continuously fail to go through a platform, resulting in a loop until you move closer to them. Other times, they'd just stop entirely until they are hit.
- Character animations vary in quality between them, making the fighters not really feel like they mesh well with each other. Some are great, while others are quite stiff.

Most of my complaints are minor though, and can be addressed in a future patch. Figured I wouldn't address move issues since I'm highly unskilled to do so, and games like this aren't my usual cup of tea, so I'll leave that to those who know what they're talking about. Otherwise, I'm happy with how this game released overall, and it makes me want to work to get better at it due to how addictively fun its game play can be. I'm looking forward to what the developers do with it next.

Playing Paper's Please is a game of seeking out stuff that doesn't match up. Constantly being on the lookout for something incorrect that by the time you let them through, your pay gets docked because of one tiny thing you overlooked. Play it if you don't mind getting a headache every once in a while.

Dr. Langeskov, The Tiger, and The Terribly Cursed Emerald: A Whirlwind Heist is quite possibly the greatest heist game I have ever played. For a short, free 15 minute game, I find myself coming back to sneak into the gloomy manor and make off with the valuables time and time again.

Pros:
-The graphics of the outside are stunning and beautiful. Simplistic, but not outstandingly low poly.
-Inside the manor is old styled and the guard footsteps are well defined to tell which room they're in.
-The ability to reroute the guards for more observant players.
-Replayability is great, as different things occur through the heist. From lasers, to injuries that make you limp, even random blackouts.
-The tiger is random and can attack at any point, making even the toughest player tense up.
-Music is ominous and ambient, adding tons to the atmosphere.

Cons:
-It's 15 minutes. I WANT MORE

I would like a DLC to this game, even just adding multiplayer. I could go on about what else this game could have, but is great as-is. A needed game for any Steam library.

I played Undertale. I thought that game had feeling and depth that no game ever had or could hope to level with.

This though... oh boy...

This game is all about first hand experience, free from outside knowledge of the game. This was the first game I did this with. Don't look anything up about this game, keep it mysterious to yourself. Buy it now, it's a decision you won't regret.

This game is epic. Go on, buy it, murder Bob with varitey of weapons while trying to save him. Even, you can even murder the Heavy in the Meet the Medic style!

Go on, go save lives or take them.

It's free. Forever. Go online and play and get new items.
