Was really excited for this game, but it didnt really live up to all the praise I'd heard. As a photography game, it claims to be about artistic expression, but in practice its just a really moody scavenger hunt.
The 10min time limit discourages you from taking your time for a good photo. And sometimes you need multiple items in a photo, which is only possible from a single angle. Therefore, I never felt encouraged to get creative. I was just ticking boxes off a list.
Admittedly, the atmosphere is strong, and interesting things are happening, but you are never asked to photograph these interesting things. Just mundane items - spray cans, sticky notes, some glowsticks.
And lastly, the game has geometry glitches where you fall through the map, or are inexplicably launched 30ft into the air. All in all, I really wanted to like this game but was disappointed :/

shitty future yup
imo the time limit never staggered my gameplay since it's not required, I'd always play through levels at my own leisure then go back and do the time trials once I knew where all the photo ops were so I could get the bonus items more easily
