It's ya boi.

A bilingual Japanese/English game-player/musician/dad dissecting game design, mechanics, localization, and altogether vibe. Or honestly most of the time I'm just making snide remarks on stuff tbh.

Honestly I don't think I would've had a reason to touch this game if it wasn't for Studio Pixel's involvement in programming. It's basically a visual novel with very mild exploration mechanics in the engine of Kero Blaster and feels nice and familiar because of this however the story is deep and thought provoking though it gets dark relatively quickly. My biggest criticism for this game was the pacing between events of interest. You don't move very quickly and there's no option to auto scroll text. There are a few branching paths and if you don't time your saves right it can be a huge slog to retrace your steps. (Although I did find in the steam announcements that there's a "mod" that allows you to run the game at up to 3x speed that might've helped)

However there are quite a few beautiful and thought provoking moments to be found throughout. Nothing really went as far as to bring me to tears but I definitely had some fun trying to piece together how the world of Eden worked and what was real and what wasn't. (Played in Japanese)

Car I love you but dang it please for the love of the hit singles please oil Garn's door hinges I am going to absolutely lose it.

Fr though this game is probably the closest thing I've experienced to recreating how actual dreams feel with all the uncanny movement and especially the slow hover flying. Totally Garnular.

A lot less of a "horror" game and more like a game where you just literally get assaulted in real life.
