You know, you could probably earn some good money with a DLC of rather... interesting... extra scenes, like clarifying that line. or new diplomatic means of getting past the squealers, or taking up Tidy of his features. Though may alter the esrb rating. ...Hey it worked for Cult of the Lamb.
Warning: It’s a straight game!! Yes I was also confused. The protagonist looks like that but remains straight the whole game. Amazing, I know.
Despite the straightness it’s a great game! There’s a lot of playtime, writing and art in this package and the price is very fair for what you get! If you like both point-and-click and beat’em up the game is a treat.
If you don’t like robot slurs be prepared to endure a lot of them because the protagonist very often uses derisive terms for robots right to their faces and he never really stops doing it.
Hello, this is a special version exclusively for the iiRcade machines, it's not designed to play on a phone/tablet as there are no touch controls and there are specific tweaks. Read the paragraph on this in the description.
Maybe there'll be a proper touch screen Android version someday but this would require more work.
The story is interesting and competently written, the characters are believable and indigenous to their world, not to mention interesting. You will find yourself wondering how they will react to what's coming their way, you'll want to hear their thoughts on matters at hand... And you will!
The game does a great job at getting you hooked up, outlining what to expect from it, and delivering on it fully and thoroughly.
What deserves a special note is the David Cage-style timeline with all choices picked and missed, available after completion. After the first ending I got, I was already curious what would have happened had I picked a different route of action, and then the timeline showed me just how much content was behind that choice and I just had to go back and replay the game from the diversion point!
I also laughed at the advice the game gives you regarding getting different outcomes. I was too good at paying attention, so the game advised me to be dumber and fail theexam. I was great in the action parts, so the game advised me to not be so good and lose certain fights.
My only complaint is the canon path - it's kind of grim and, looking at how it was literally the last ending I unlocked, completely avoidable. But then again, they need to end the game on a somewhat dramatic note to have some drama to solve in the second game, right?
All and all, I can't recommend this game enough. A terrific experience!
Actually, there's another complaint I just remembered - the hidden timer for when Brok needs to escape and to go to his son's school event, the game doesn't show you a timer, but you ARE on the timer.
Usually, when the game says you need to hurry and doesn't show a timer - it means the warning was just fluff and you can butt around, and when it actually wants you to hurry - it shows you a timer.
Hi, this one is on purpose, I didn't want players to be pressured into doing it fast, and I didn't want players to accidentally get the "get to the fair in time" because it has heavy consequences and pretty much guarantees you won't get the canonical ending. It's extra content. (by the way, I added this very late into development)
How much do I have to pay to get the sound track? The way it is presented through my screen reader the soundtrack zip file is grouped with the files you get access to when you pay $14.99.
Great! I wish that developers would note that in their game descriptions. I don't use Steam and would rather not waste time trying out any games that require it.
Hi, Yes I will attempt to patch the demo soon too. I was waiting to get feedback and make sure I have a fully stable version before patching all of them. Thanks for the interest!

So... can I get some clarification on "Can we play with him first?"
There's nothing worse than your own imagination!
Mostly all depends on if he's dead or unconscious. ...never did understand how punches lead to instant death though (apart from most squealers).

Is the side load iircade already built? Ready to push ? Or just an APK file?
Hi, I followed the advice of someone in the know who designed the device for iiRcade sideloading. So it "should" be ready but can't help much more.
Very enjoyable game for the iiRcade! I am glad that it is available for side loading.
Thank you!

I purchased and installed both games on my iiRcade. Thanks for making them available. I have been having a great time playing them both!
Hi, good to hear!
Bought and installed on my iiRcade. Thanks for continuing to make it available, and for including an extra game!
Thank you!
Love it! Would recommend!
I bought this for iiRcade. Thanks for keeping it up.
Thanks for the interest!
Thank you so much for continuing to support the iiRcade.
Just seeing this now - no prob, that didn't take much time!
hi:
is the .apk file for Android? An accessible game this detailed on Android would be a blast.

One of the best games I've played recently!

Except for that one time. I don't know why.

Thanks for the nice words!
I made a short review in spanish
Nice!
How much do I have to pay to get the sound track? The way it is presented through my screen reader the soundtrack zip file is grouped with the files you get access to when you pay $14.99.
Hi, it's written below the OST: "if you pay $17.99 USD or more"
It says that you get a Steam key, does that mean that Steam is required even though it says DRM free?
Hi, no, it's an option. You get both versions.
Great! I wish that developers would note that in their game descriptions. I don't use Steam and would rather not waste time trying out any games that require it.

I just updated the demo version!
