  • Venn:
    • 45 minutes of You Have Died.
  • Jordan
    • Yeah, fighting in this game sucks
    • And considering that its you’re main mechanism in the game, you might wanna reconsider
    • It’s also a wee unfair that enemies can fire diagonally but you can’t
    • They even have an annoying little ship battle segment
  • Pedro
    • It’s so infuriating.
    • Days are super short and you have limited lantern fuel so going around at night is a squinting exercise.
    • There’s little to no feedback that you’re hitting something or something is hitting you. The combat in general just feels like you’re waving a featherduster at things until they or your character fall over.
    • The music screeches so loud at times you have to wonder if your neighbours are going to come running to see if you’re feeling alright.
    • There’s possibly a game hidden under all this, but I just can’t seem to muster the stubbornness necessary to find it.

Fun Score:
