I'm seeing a few too many praises here not gonna lie, this does not live up to the hype in my opinion.
A game should be a game first and foremost, this is not a game this is an arg. This is the same complaint I had about shipwrecked 64. There is no game here, this is barely an interactive experience. If a game like this actually came out on the n64 it would have performed terribly and would have been remembered as one of the worst platformers of the era, so why are we praising it now just because it has a horror element hidden behind some thinly veiled fourth wall breaks?
But hey, it's free, so this is a very mediocre first game at best and a big letdown at worst. I guess.
isn't that kind of the point, you do realize that this game was made to be an arg right? it was never meant to be like an actual game that released during the n64 because its an arg, the point of the game is not the game, but the story it conveys, and it does damn well good at that, like shipwrecked 64, i understand that your preference is just a game without a story, but to me, and others, a game and its story goes hand in hand, i get you can have your opinions, and I'm not discouraging that, I'm just saying that if you are gonna criticize a game for it being an arg and you don't like arg's, then instead of criticizing it, play a game you do like instead
