Incredible aesthetic from the visuals to the music depending on how you feel about vaporwave. I personally love seeing that early Internet age visualized. When we genuinely thought this would be a new wave of knowledge and connection that would bring us into the future for the better only for the modern day to be way more cynical and just suck shit. The game does a great job of deconstructing that.

I found it fascinating how lonely this game could feel. Connected and alienated all at once. People are there but very little of them are actually talking to you.

As an adventure game, it's quite charming and gets a lot of good use of it's mechanics. Everything gets its moment to shine.

I think the bigger issue I had was how janky they felt sometimes. I'm willing to say a good portion of that is because I played on a controller through steam and this was clearly not meant for a controller. Though I'd appreciate if you could move just a little bit faster.

If there was anything truly wrong with this game, it's the back two levels can be super tedious. Still very visually striking, but the least enjoyable gameplay wise due to some pretty egregious backtracking through platforming sections and really annoying placement of side quest objectives.

Again though, it's got a great style and I'm excited to see what the devs got next with the sequel.
