its really not that bad for a free chase horror game. Obviously poorly written, though i can see earnestness and a real attempt at making something meaningful and helpful, the main problem is that the writers are not writing about their experiences, they’re writing about what they percieve younger people go through, specifically younger people who have gone through types of bullying that the older writers have never experienced themselves.
has some great environment designs, an incredible monster design (shoutout Ito!) cool perspective stuff, and a genuinely well designed, though poorly taught control scheme. Also, loved the haptic feedback and static in the controller speaker, because in chase sequences, they tell you where the monster is in relation to you, and they tell you how close the monster is.

i care about silent hill, and the series future. this is a rough first step but i can find genuine good in it and, again, an earnestness thats absent from, say, Silent Hill: Ascension.
