Sorry for they typos in the title. :D
Dear developers. A speed up button would be a nice thing to add to the game. I know it is a "stop and smell the roses" kind of game and a full on marathon sprint would detract from the ,lovingly, crafted game world. The player would miss out on a lot of the relevant environmental details that tell the story as much as the notes and audio logs scattered through out. However, a slightly faster pace would not detract from this and would increase the player's enjoyment. Especially during following play troughs.
Another feature the game could benefit from, though by no means a must have, is the option to chapter select after finishing the game.
Minor spoilers ahead but nothing that gives away any direct story elements.
Aside from some obvious spelling/ English translation errors and the walking speed the game is a good cinematic story game with some light branching paths and exploration. Though over all the majority is linear it does have some side areas and multiple endings.
It also has different dialogue options and feels like it has a slight karma system (good or bad answers) along with other dialogue options. I am not sure if these answers change the way the game plays out. The final choice for different endings is made at the last minute. But there are some side areas you can ignore that effects the momentary story. There are also similar dialogue options with the various computer terminals that lead to different dialogue outcomes. I am not certain how they effect the actual game world. I have only played through the game once so cant be certain but I think they must. They are too specific and relate to physical details and the different outcomes would lead to some physical changes.
