As one who has read the comic and wasted over 2 months of my life on it (that I will never get back), this game was only released just to show the fans of Hussie's work that their Kickstarter money wasn't being put to waste. Sure these guys were ripped off by another company during development, and I will give them credit for not scrapping the project entirely, but this is just pure laziness.

The game itself barely lasts 2.5 hours. Just enough so you can't refund after completing the game. Indie game devs often like to do this, suck you in the story for a little bit and then leave you with a cliffhanger ending, for you to wait months upon months to possibly buy a sequel that may never even come out. I would use Toby Fox as an example, but even he still released a somewhat sequel to Undertale. And what kind of sequel did we get to this? Friendsim. Those VN games we got were also excuses so that the fans wouldn't stop caring about the series. You could tell me "oh but wait those games were meant for you to be able to meet the trolls in act 2" let me tell you that if there is an Act 2 and it's about as short as this game, then you will only have minimal interactions with those trolls that met in that game. There are no redeemable aspects of this game other than the nice artwork and the music, but the gameplay is minimal and ends when it gets interesting.

The fanbase? Typical Tumblr-styled (rip tumblr lmao) social justice warrior crap who try to change genders and zodiacs and often try to Roleplay SBURB or some other ♥♥♥♥ with you. I don't think the fanbase has ever been this bad since 2011 when all the little kids went on the MSPA forums and caused havok at conventions (who later moved on to Minecraft and then Fortnite). I've tried to talk with others about this game before and they always do something stupid like bring up a TYPING QUIRK XXXXXXXXD GET IT CAUSE IM ROLEPLAYING or often change the subject because even they know that there most likely won't be a second act coming. The Undertale fandom is actually more sane than this now that I think about it.

The developers of this game have also been silent about another act. They've hinted that it would come out spring of 2018, but it's now going to 2019 and we have absolutely nothing from them. We got an announcement from the freelance music producer James Roach who told us that it was on infinite hiatus. I reccomend you check out some of Roach's work, as he has potential to go big, and hasn't dug into the gender zodiac changing mess that another former music producer on the team went through before he killed himself (you know who I'm talking about). Lots of workers were laid off the development team as well, for no known reason other than possible financial troubles, which is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ because people buy the overpriced merch on their store such as the books and shirts and things like that.

Other than that I simply cannot reccomend this game in the current state that it's in. The $8 price tag is too much and now I think $4 is a somewhat more reasonable price, but the fact that Hussie and his team thought it was okay to release something like this to his "loyal" fanbase is quite depressing honestly.

I am leaving comments on because unlike some of the people who played this game, I can handle criticism.

[h1] Awful game, horrid fanbase, scummy devs. [/h1] As one who has read the comic and wasted over 2 months of my life on it (that I will never get back), this game was only released just to show the fans of Hussie's work that their Kickstarter money wasn't being put to waste.
