Really awesome game, really well done mechanics and unnerving gameplay. Real fun narrative and themes, my only issue is towards the "finale" section.

Personally, while I did complete the parkour section, I think it doesn't mesh with the rest of the game, mechanically or thematically. The character is too "heavy", which works well for a horror game, but too weighty for precision parkour, even with the full speed upgrades.

I'd rather see something that matched the main gameplay loop. Maybe you have to travel through a certain number of elevator zones and secure a certain amount of "value" in that zone. So collect 100 tokens of dishes, which you need to wash/dry in zone and deposit while avoiding the monster of the zone which would be a bit more aggressive. This fits more mechanically and thematically, since your "mundane chore turned horror" fits more. Narratively I do like the change of gameplay as it's supposed to "escape the system", so the finale being something different is cool. Perhaps during the suggested finale, it "glitches" the simulation more and appears as if it's breaking down, but by the end it reveals it was merely a ruse. Just a spitball idea.

After some more thought, the sharp change of mechanics also has an interesting "meta-narrative" of "escaping the mundane horror chore" genre by forcing you to play something completely different, both with the encrypted game disk and the finale. Might be thinking a bit too much into it, but a fun reading also with how the game is as is.


Regardless, loved the game and really interested so see what else ya'll do.

Pretty damn cool, a short but pleasant experience. Some of the anomalies were probably a little too subtle but still a very fun time. Definitely a solid concept and great execution.

Great game, lots of upset people over the recent changes but they aren't nearly as bad as they'd like to make it out to be. Definitely some issues that need to be worked out and some design choices that can be questioned, but overall the game is amazing, one of the most fun games I've ever had in and continue to have fun in.

Treexy Driver Fusion software is pretty incredible. I had gone to dell for driver updates before for my laptop, and they gave a few, but not nearly the range Driver Fusion offered to update. It corrected and updated the drivers on my laptop, I saw a noticable increase in performance when playing games. I gained atleast 10 FPS on Dragon Age Inquisition and alot more stable performance on my PS2 emulator. Highly recommend it to people who can't or won't hunt down all the drivers themselves for updates, it is worth updating and maintaining them.

Probably one of the most amazing games I've played. The port is ♥♥♥♥, yes, but after some easy fixes, it's probably well worth the money. Best game I've played.

Don't get this game. Really.

It's a mess of a game, with only some neat features.

Save your money for another game, or wait a while before they fix most of the outstanding problems.
