While its aesthetics and visuals are absolutely bonkers and I DO love that.
Critters for Sale just kinda stays in a weird space for me.
It's too consistent in terms of world building (while, yes, insane) for me to just embrace the aesthetics, feel and interpret the game in my own way.
While at the same time, i feel its world building isn't as well established or well executed for me to immerse myself in it, be it in a way where it makes sense within this illogical world's boundaries, be it in a way in where it's intentionally fuzzy and dissonant.
The ending feels a bit off, maybe for being anticlimatic, maybe for being inconclusive in any way, shape or form, maybe because i just couldn't really care too much about what it has done in terms of world building.
It's charming, it's visually interesting, but i just really didn't connect a lot with it.
Would still be interested in playing a new game by Sonoshee, I do believe in the potential of their work and of this series (?), as i presume from the final bit of text.
