Early Access Review
It's an excellent game. Lots of funny moments, and it actually had me interested in the characters' stories. The attention to detail is sublime

The methods of storytelling are fairly unique. I like the dream sequences, the easter eggs hidden around the map, and the different ways you can choose to experience the game. Everything is just linear enough, but the choices do matter - it's awesome.

FEEDBACK:
  • Inventory system is underused. Some items have descriptions (they are often quite funny), but most do not. I think players often miss this feature

  • It's unclear if the hearts or stars that appear above ashley's head have any sort of effect on gameplay. When the game's finished, getting all the stars could unlock some sort of true ending, and all hearts could lead to a romance ending (similar to the last dream sequence in chapter 2, perhaps have andrew go back on his word?)

  • Considering the characters can get rich early into the game, there should be more ways to spend that money. The only thing you can buy is the soda for ashley, and it's pretty obscure. The dialogue was worth it sure, but there is literally a shop on the next screen that you can't go into. It'd be nice to get ashley more gifts, or have her give andrew something to show that she cares. I hope they expand on this a bit in the later chapters.

  • The game lacks quick time events. This might be a design choice, but the only quick time event is at the end of chapter 2, and it's fully scripted.
  • Here are some examples of where you could add some more tension:
    - The hitman should kill you if you take too long to shoot him (mid chapter 2)
    - Have the warden catch you if you take too long to hide (chapter 1)
    - The "monster" near the end of chapter 2 could break the door and kill you if you tap it too many times.

  • The game could do with more puzzles. The existing ones are all pretty easy. The hardest one is the gift, and 25% of players got the achievement.

My girlfriend and I completely adore playing this game. We're excited to see the episode 3 and 4. I don't know if it's possible, but an official discord server would be nice
I'd really love if Kit9 read this review and considered some of our suggestions :D
