somehow even better than the original. the dedicated "talk to partner" button made for some really cute and endearing conversations and the new puzzles and artwork took me back to 2013 when I first played the original. had a great time with this one

a nice game whose small blemishes keep it from being a fantastic game.
a game all about riding a bike around landscapes, taking polaroid pictures, and journaling seems like a game made in a lab for me specifically. unfortunately, a few things kept nagging at me during my 7ish hour playthrough: this game suffers heavily from "Please stop talking" disease which isn't helped by the writing being so ostentatious and overly serious; the character designs are genuinely so good in this one, yet the last NPC you meet and finish the game with is cartoonishly goofy looking; and for a game all about exploring and experiencing the environment, the game's camera sure wanted to fight me the entire bike ride! these are by no means game-breaking flaws by themselves, but together they definitely weighed down what should have been a short and sweet experience, making it feel more like a slog than it needed to be.
also made me want to give my mom a hug so take with that what you will.

fun little demo with a lot of heart from people who are clearly fans of the og tv show - will definitely benefit from a full release that improves upon the control movement and some gameplay segments like the red room scene. really excited for any future updates and for anything the two developers will give us.
