my review on steam from 17oct23:
_
a bit too good for a free game!!
aesthetics are superb: 90s/00s edgy "its-not-just a-phase-mom"/anthony soprano jr wearing that marilyn manson tee - groove blended with those intoxicating splashes of lovecraft, cronenberg (weapons feel like they are straight from existenz) and hr giger.
in short: smells like musky teen outcast spirit!!
gameplay is straightforward but hella fun, the gameplay loop started making sense in the 2nd level for me, has depth/strategy and rewards backtracking for ammo/health/etc.. remember to (abuse) saves (no auto save or checkpoints).
just try it, it's free after all!!
