Hmmm...
I won't rag on this very hard, especially since the game's unfinshed. The artwork is compellingly beautiful, done in a pixel-based style that is high on nostalgic charm. The game, as it presently stands, even boasts some neat-looking animation on its cut scenes. No voiceovers, but that really isn't a problem for me. Seems to be a lot happening in the story, cutting from the realworld into a dreamstate through the use of a book with unexplained magical properties. I didn't see enough of the plot in the demo to really understand the depth of what was happening. What didn't work for me was what I saw of the gameplay itself. I was taken through lengthy dialog with no selectable options, then sent down an unbranching path to the only available location. All actions were handled with the spacebar. Whenever a prompt came up, I pressed it, and the game shuffled me off to its next bit. I'd guess the story is going to be the big draw on this one, not the gameplay. I never felt like I was exploring anything or participating in the story, though. Just doing what I was explictly told to do and going where I was explictly sent. Early days, I know, but I didn't see anything that would make me want to check out a later version of this game. The developers should have sat on this demo until it was more than just attractive windowdressing.
