The captain's voice was also nice--not narratively obtrusive, but still well-defined.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>However, I didn't really feel emotionally invested in any of the outcomes, and I could occasionally tell that there was no possible answer that would answer the challenge before me well, which was frustrating and eroded my sense of agency."},{"author_name":"arrogant.gamer","author_uid":"22995","time":"May 1, 2014 @ 1:41am","epoch":1398908160,"text":"It was a super cool game, but I felt a little torn. The look and feel were telling me to go one way, but the story itself was heavily geared to go the other. Does that make sense? The art and music were telling me, &quot;relax, this is a game about chilling on an alien planet and being jive.&quot; Trying to do that, though, lead to the end pretty quickly.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I think the branching factor could be a little higher too (I mean, I understand jams are short and all). I just sometimes felt like, every branch lead to death or the next choice.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Don't get me wrong! I'm only going into the nitty gritty of my experience because I really enjoyed the game.
