Grindy. A shadow of its former self. Out-of-touch with what players want out of PSO. Timed attacks no longer exist. Content is not worth playing and is either frustrating or boring.

A heart-wrenching story about a nerdy, wheelchair-bound gator girl that paints vivid landscapes. Please hug her as much as you can.

From what I saw of 20XX, it seems to have come a long way, in terms of quality and polish.

That said, there's a few things I feel need more attention. For one, the user interface (UI) style doesn't match the spritework of the levels and characters. It looks so streamlined and anti-aliased that it feels lacking. What's more, there are several grammatical errors and typos that kinda ruin my ability to appreciate the story. The procedural generation of the levels aren't very tight, either, and some of the platforming elements and enemies blends in with the levels, so it gets difficult to figure out what I'm looking at.

On top of that, the music and SFX feel kinda uninspired. There's a lot of room for improvement in that regard. The buster SFX, for example, just sounds like run-of-the-mill sci-fi laser shots, and the hitreg sound is so muffled, it's hard to believe I hit an enemy at all.

Of course, I applaud Battery Staple for what they've been able to accomplish with this, and how far they've come since their first iteration. I just hope they don't see what they already have, and say, "Good enough." I really want to play this game more, and see it succeed. It's a great concept that needs more work. Congratulations on the 1.0 release, however!

Very charming and short romp through an office building. Watch out, 'cuz you don't have to say NO to everything!

Shadow of its former self, plus Korean grindfests are no longer fun. Broken and unable to play or log in. If you're really desperate to try this again, play a private server.

Very addictive base building sim. Very demanding in the mid-game, so you need to know how every little system works.

Nice little game that kinda borrows notes from Undertale. The songs are neat, but kinda miss their mark for me. Style is great, and so are the characters.

Kinda frustrating to navigate, but the style is great. Definitely buy this to support the devs behind it.

It's another one of those "only game in town" kind of games. Weird development choices, and delayed features that everyone would prefer to have. Wish there was more desktop support, like third-person.

Cool game, but I'm told nobody wants to play it due to "Touch of Death" mechanics. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
