could b gr8 with a follow up
198x is a brilliant idea. I felt like it took some cues from stranger things , the soundtrack and main character was kind of a mix of 11 and micheal j fox from back to the future. Very interesting idea to set a story in the height of the video arcade days. They picked cool visual scenes of the neighbourhood and protags house, each time you get to the end of a short arcade game, the game itself blends into the story being told, it was quite surprising when this happened the first time. The story just kind of meanders around solitude and brooding pre teen angst. But like other reviews have said, this might be a prolouge to something more fleshed out. The games are interesting takes on a few diff genres of the time. Art style and bosses are pretty cool. not much to be said about the game play- its basic. It would be difficult to have fully realised arcade games on the budget these guys must have had, and art wise its great and worth playing to see the visual style of each game and cutscene. This idea could be made into something really memorable with more work done on each arcade game, and a story with more then one character- a plot and stakes, as the story here is more about capturing a feel ( which they do very well). Alot of work would have gone into painting each scene though, you can tell this took up alot of the dev teams time and it pays off.

Fix the mix. Audio engineering... where?
Very cool pixel art style. What it would have looked like back in the day if artists had millions of colors to choose from at 320x200 resolution. We only dreamed of graphics like this. It's like a low res interactive 1980s movie. The biggest drawback to this game is the lack of options. Specifically sound options. Not crazy about the narrator voice to begin with, but even worse is the soundtrack basically drowns out the narration so bad you miss a lot of what the main character is saying. On top of that they have some sort of terrible effect on the narrator's voice to make it even more difficult to understand. Really bad choices here and it needs to be fixed. It ruins the atmosphere in my opinion. Hell, I would have preferred text at the bottom of the screen over this sound mixed mess. Other than the audio I find the animation and visuals very pleasing. Really nice use of color and art style. Almost anime, but not quite. Love it!

Une qualité qui prime sur la quantité
Pour 10€, le temps de jeu est pourrie. Mais l'experiance est unique et super. Je recommande vivement ce jeux au riche comme moi. PS : Uniquement en Anglais sans sous-titre T.T
