Title
A cute little "teen horror" with really well-written dialogue and a sense of humor.
Since the dialogue here is usually fast-paced and I need to react quickly in it, I would really appreciate the opportunity to "rewind" the game up to 30 seconds back. Also, the dialogue options sometimes don't give you a proper idea of what your character is going to say, so I had to reload the save if I didn't like it - usually that means losing 5 to 10 minutes of progress.
Another minor issue is poor controller and Steam Deck support on PC, which is kinda weird because Oxenfree has pretty good console versions.

Title
A fun, spooky little indie game - loved my time playing it, but there could have been more going on gameplay-wise, as most of the puzzles consist of just tuning to a certain radio frequency. Still, great atmosphere and characters.

    Not gonna lie. The game does do a good job of making me feel unease. I usually don't get scared with video games.

    don't like the twee aesthetic that this game and Night in the Woods rely on to soften the edge of their depressing millennial problems

    I cannot understand why a dialogue-based game has a dialogue mechanic that is so badly broken. The game seems to be very atmospheric and the artwork is superb but for is broken for me. What a shame.

      Wouldn't call it "badly broken", but for all the good things I've heard about it it's definitely jankier than I expected
    • alliterativeAlpinist 2021-03-06 20:54:55.33362+00
      Also the force feedback from when you tune the radio gets stuck on the gamepad constantly which is highly annoying

      Atmosphere/style over actual narrative and gameplay strength, mostly.

      The game is an awesome Lovecraftian horror masterpiece.

      Masterpiece my ass, play Life is Strange instead, if you want a butterfly effect kind of game. Or literally any other horror, if you came for that.
