i had a dream that the characters in this game were redesigned to be more interesting. i’ve had a few dreams about this game, actually.

i don't sympathize with complaints about the lack of weapons/mutations. if there were any more you'd all be rightly complaining that it's bloat, especially since you have little choice in which weapons and, to a lesser extent, mutations you get. less is more in this case.

the only criticisms i have of this game are small nitpicks that i only hold due to how much i've played it: as mentioned before, the characters you play as could be much more interesting mechanically, and also there is a clear aesthetic inconsistency in enemy design between the areas included in the original ludum dare version and the areas added for the full release. if you notice, there are very few enemies that have a similar silhouette to the player character or hold weapons like the player character(s) do(es) in areas past the scrapyard, beyond IDPD pigs. i hate that shit. the robodogs in the frozen city should be anthro, god damn it.
