All press is good press as they say, right?

I think the most entertainment you can get out of this one is the lparchive that keeps devolving into a more tired mentality, slowly losing sanity to the game's discombobulate mess that grasps at nostalgic straws. The game released in a very hacked together way, but the changes and patches didn't really reveal a charming core, instead something that feels almost insecure. It's dark in a 00s fanfiction edgy way, but not quite carrying that energy into some real heart or message. It's genuinely hollow, and even the worst pokemon game has a more earnest understanding of life, people, and childhood sentiments than this shit. Radioactive my ass this isotope is as inert as they come.

don't you think you're being rather harsh on a fangame that has several hours of work and effort put into it? like i think even if you disagree with the themes and tone of the game you have to admit that there's like a significantly large amount of passion and care that was put into this.
honestly that's fair. You're right. I think it's clear in dev stuff and interviews/blogposts that they had a lot of effort put into it, it's just difficult for me to really experience that or see that it exists ingame. I think i'll edit in an apology of some sort that kind of addresses that. I still think it's dogshit, but it's not dogshit from some company or whatever
