I have played every route and this is a great game Imho.
-Overall Notes
Love the humor and characters
The writing overall is great
Highly recommend! Especially if you are in the know of memes or even half in the know, However it is still a very enjoyable game and would still recommend it if you do not know any memes
A ton of the characters have almost or have killed someone in at least one of the routes. There is a lot of homicidal tendencies going around and I am here for it
Neim doesn't overuse any puns and serious situations are serious.
Even when Neim's puns are added in, it doesn't ruin the tension and feels in character.
Hard to do but you pulled it off well
The story that you start to piece together with Rico's family and Seth's and stuff is very good.
I love all the connections and overlapping of stories where none of it feels too repetitive or anything and everything feels like their own story but it's still connected and doesn't feel too cut off from the other routes
The art is not the best and for some that may be off-putting but I got used to it pretty quick and it doesn't hurt the story or the quality of the game Imo.
It has a nice charm I may even say it actually adds to the story and game
-Notes on Routes
Rico's good ending was the first route I did and I really enjoyed his character and he was the classic 'You want a good guy with not too much underlying story? Here you go!' and was a great route to start with.
I highly agree that Rico's route(s) are the best to start with since if you do then you get a seemingly simple/surface level story that is enjoyable and then you start to get deeper and it's g o o d
Seth's bad ending was a bit shocking.
Really enjoyed the intensity of it.
Lynette's side story really filled in some gaps.
Appreciated that and really liked her story and just everything about it.
The Matt and Neim posing at the beach was unexpected and did make me audibly laugh
Also the throwaway scene of Lou eating seaweed also caught me off guard, quite enjoyed it especially since Lou looked so happy about it
I also really liked how Matt had some serious moments and wasn't just there for some more meme references and puns.
-Ratings For Routes
Rico's good ending - 3.5/5 A good 'basic' romance story
Rico's bad ending - 2.5/5 A little bland
Seth's good ending - 4/5 Very intriguing and loved the action
Seth's bad ending- 5/5 Kinda shocking but doesn't seem too out of character and honestly I'm a sucker for stories where if one is going down they both go down. It also showed another side of Seth, that was great and the absolute rage that there was in him and his uncaring 'Oops, I guess I injected too much' was wow, favorite moment
Matt's good ending- 3/5 Not bad, not bad. Solves the main questions of it. Liked it, all good.
Matt's bad ending- 2.5/5 A little abrupt but I appreciate the fact that you did more than just one route and that there's quite a difference between the good and bad route for Matt
Lynette's story- 4/5 Technically not a route but still. Liked how it fleshed out more of the story. Liked her seemingly cool character that is actually really flawed. Also liked her story with Akila. Very nice
Thank you for coming to my TED talk on why this is a good game
