Great engine, not sure about the game itself
Well, this is obviously a game with an incredible engine--certainly, one much more sophisticated than I'm likely to ever create. The ability to take pictures is, needless to say, cool as heck. The art, also, is simply fantastic. Really, top-notch. I feel immersed in a strange land when I play this. The cutscenes, which are frequent, are well-animated and funny. These add a lot to the atmosphere and character of the game as well.
Unfortunately, not everything about the game is this good. The music, while appropriate in a cutesy way and very well-composed, started to get on my nerves a bit after a few minutes.
Also, I found the icon-speech detracted from the game much more than it added. Language just doesn't work in a visual way like that--it broke the immersion to have to puzzle out what they were saying every ten seconds--and usually it was not worth deciphering in the first place: "I don't like rain. Rain makes me angry!" Gee, thanks.
Ultimately, though, the biggest issue with this game is the gameplay. Once the novelty of running around in a 3D world in Flash wears off, there's really remarkably little to keep my attention. Even the quest for the Lampshade of No Real Significance had more urgency and coherence to it than this did, and that was a parody with a deliberately pointless plotline.
It's a shame. I'd like to rate this higher, but it simply isn't very much fun, and at the end of the day, that's what matters.
