The Xbox game pass has opened a strange world of c-tier indie games which are trying to evoke some cherished cult classic with some ironic internet humor or some really overblown teen angst drama. I both love and hate this new chapter of my video gaming life but rainbow billy is trying some really nice things. It’s mostly harmless with some moments that felt smart and others that were so tedious I was confused why they’d made their small teams life harder for something so needless. Ultimately I fell into a nice and comfortable gameplay rhythm but found that although there is the illusion of deep social mechanics you can storm through the game treating every character exactly the same (one fun exception being an enemy who is upset if you do to well in a fight)
