The Game Awards

Funny metahumor indy game. Gameplay is jenk, but it fits the narrative, so be aware before you go in. The humor is worth the price for sure, More than a few actual belly laughs for 5 bucks is well worth it.

I played the story mode and remained on the first level. It was pretty a collectathon level as the dev said in game. The map was nicely lush etc. We played as a character that rides a chocobo like creature ha. It is very fast. So fast that ya can overshoot ur platforms. I managed to collect 27 of the 30 collectibles. The save feature in menu did NOT work as advertised. I had to start all over after "reloadin'". The game also features level select which I should've done to save time. I don't think it's too bad for the price. Middle thumb up. Gameplay Impressions: https://youtu.be/tnRE4uEKaSM

Short and scatological, fourth-wall breaking jank romp that does some things I've never seen in a game before. Hearing the voice of the developer is novel! Definitely a unique experience. Probably funnier if you are more of a "gamer"- there was some commentary/jokes on what I think are streamers or youtubers but I got laid in high school* so I don't know who they are. *If you are offended by this, this game is not for you.

Just watch a let's play for it, not worthy of any real player's time

Tried to get into it - the dev seemed to be going for a Stanley Parable type of vibe but I don't think it quite got there. Most of my time was on the first level, and the core gameplay wasn't compelling at all. Before someone says 'THATS THE POINT' - okay, but you need to be providing some other value to offset being intentionally shitty with the gameplay. Even a simple arrow that pops up to point the user to the nearest item to pick up (maybe that pops up with an audio clip that plays the first time that you take longer than X seconds/minutes to collect an item would have pushed things forward considerably. There were also moments that having a voiceover to poke fun or reference something the player was doing could have made it a much more enjoyable time. When I no-clipped through a castle - perfect time to play something addressing it, offering an excuse as to why it wasn't finished, why you shouldn't have tried to do that, etc. Same with walking on top of the water in the on...
