oh I positively cannot WAIT for the full thing to be out. I'm sure it will take an AGONISING while(I am. so hyped) but I'm positive it will absolutely be worth it.
Not much to say in the way of story JUST yet but from the set-up at the beginning alone and the little bits of character interaction sprinkled throughout I'm already theorising and super excited! I'm definitely positively biased in my expectations from witnessing your other story, but just from what I've seen alone in this demo I'm sure I will not be let down, hell, I think my expectations will be exceeded! Infact, they already have been, in a way. You see, seeing the previews for this on socials I found the cast to be a little disintresting to me and worried that it couldn't live up to it's predecessor. But upon seeing everything come together in the game, I can definitely see myself getting even more attached to these characters and their dynamics than I am already. Many a character interactions are positively charming and entertaining and I have no doubt this WILL be used against us when the horrors come ToT
But where this demo REALLY shined for me was in the art. Carrot you've completely outdone yourself!! HOW many semi-animated CGs and cutscenes?!? It starts of SO strong, that introductory cutscene had me SPEECHLESS. It was SO good at setting up the tone and atmosphere and SO cinematic. The whole game is cinematic, really. Less of a game and more of an experience, the dynamic-ness and composition of cutscenes and CGs coupled with yet again fantastic composing of ost and sfx just really. Set up atmosphere is such a good way. I feel like I'm watching a full production movie. But yeah, I really like the super dynamic and varied approach to how the art is laid out! It makes the experience really enjoyable and allows the expressiveness of your artstyle to shine, further making the characterisation of the cast even more likeable and entertaining. High hopes overall!
