Title
Ostensibly just an arcade-like photography game with a stylish lo-fi aesthetic, Umurangi Generation provides compelling snapshots of a dystopian society and the disillusioned young generation surviving within it. Aided by an eclectic electronic soundtrack, the vibe created here is something else - a mixture of cool and quietly haunting. It's unfortunate that some annoyingly unpolished elements, such as the janky platforming, take the shine off an otherwise great experience.

    terrible frustrating experience for an ultimately unsatisfying story with a surface level perspective on neoliberalism

    idk, not a huge fan of the "show don't tell" maxim being taken to such an extreme

    Also janky as hell which to me was more annoying than endearing; not sure how it's possible to fuck up mouse sensitivity settings so badly (on Game Pass) that I HAD to use a controller

      honestly i think the show don't tell stuff couldve worked fine, the devs just didnt seem to know how to do it in an effective way. ironically i feel the game utilizes much more tell than show when it comes to underlining the political message, mainly with the extensive usage of graffiti.

    This probably has the best photography mechanics of any game I've played and incredibly interesting subjects to photograph, it's a shame that the main gameplay loop is essentially a timed scavenger hunt. Though I don't know how else you can gamify the process of photography. Creative mode is great.

    I don't understand why so many people are complaining about the time limit, it's a bonus objective and you can stay on the level as long as you want. I get that it's part of the bonus reward, but the way people talk sounds like this shit is gonna go Wario Land 4 on your ass for taking too long.
