The Demons Told Me to Make This Game

Early access, so obviously things could go uphill or downhill from here, but definitely looks promising. The nature of VNs already has a little bit of time loop built into it, from a meta perspective, so it's really drilling down to fundamentals to see that made an explicit point. Only real complaint is that it's lacking some QoL for those who want to hunt down every route-like having achievements behind points of no return, such that missing them requires you to start from scratch, and that there isn't a comparatively standard 'speed through all dialogue until a choice selection', though the checkpoint system it uses is pretty hefty. However, they've already said their working on the second in a coming patch, and that would at least make dealing with the former less tedious, so things are looking up.

The demons told me to play this game, and I think you should give it a try, too. Feels like a masterpiece from the very start. Wow!

I’ve been hyped for this game ever since I first saw it on TikTok, and it did not disappoint. It’s funny, bloody, and just pure fun. Can’t wait to play the next chapters after they come out

OH GOD SAVE THE CAT,POOR THING

This game is clearly heavily inspired by Disco Elysium, but it succeeds in being its own game. The game gives you a satisfying amount of choices (all with consequences) so there's high replay value, and the game rewards you for replaying by opening more choices for different outcomes. The game also, interestingly enough, rewards failure. Some choices will require you to pass a skill check, and unlike Disco Elysium, where the skill check is kind of random, here it's more a test of reflexes and coordination. I'll admit I can be a bit slow, so it's so nice that the game doesn't just mark this down as a "failure" leaving you to try again later, but actually uses this failure to reveal something about a character, and the game itself tells you explicitly that you should enter challenges, specifically to fail them to see what new paths or traits are opened up. The tone of this game is also pitch perfect. It's simultaneously surreal, wry, and sweet. The art style is great, The music is ...

Really great game it has a lot of funny moments that don’t feel forced and the deaths are all unique

I very much enjoyed this game after playing Disco Elysium. The time loop concept is done well, it's enjoyable rather than tedious. I enjoyed the writing, the music and the art. You can see the inspirations but the game is very much it's own game.

Amazing game. The story gets you hooked immediately and the dialogue options can be super hilarious. The OST is fantastic, super excited to play the rest of the Loops

ngl i dont normally review games on steam but i just listened to a [spoiler]zombie punk band singing about lovecraft's inappropriately named cat[/spoiler] and i felt like i had to say something. game of the year. (jokes aside this might genuinely be the game of the year to ME. it's disco elysium meets supernatural meets eldritch monstrosities and a lot of other stuff. the mechanics are really well done, the story is extremely engaging and had me sitting there playing it for hours because i didn't want to put it down. and also it's funny. i need everyone to buy and play and tell your friends because i'm desperate for the devs to finish it. in the words of the jar of bees: YES. YES. YES. YES.)

Wow i absolutely love it. The choices you make can be so bizzare. I cannot wait for the next update ♥
