I'm not about to call this a great game, or even a particularly good one, but I really liked it anyway --or at least, the parts where you wandered around and soaked in the charmingly surreal (if amateurish in execution) ambience, and the nifty soundtrack. You have a point about the game having disappointingly few opportunities to participate in music for a game that has so much to do with making music, and both plot and dialogue could have used the guidance of an editor; but damned if it doesn't have ambition, and I have a soft spot in my heart for works of art with more enthusiasm than competence  Thanks for the guided tour of The Norwood Suite! I look forward to your next project.

That guy at the end, I think we've seen him before, he's that old guy that never talks. I don't think we've really seen all that much of him as he doesent really stand out much from all the other crazy crap we've witnessed.

He is the dad of one of the women in the bowling pins room.

Well. That was certainly something.

I bounced off of Off Peak so hard that I couldn't bring myself to watch this LP. Now that it's over, is it worth trying again?

Thanks.

Two good things about this game: 1) The game was either made by people that aren't programmers, or the programming was tackled by very few people. I think that's a good thing because they managed to release a functional product on a shoestring budget, with little technical expertise. This speaks volumes on how the tooling is so accessible nowadays, and how anyone with drive and an idea can at least try making a game and having their ideas heard. 2) The soundtrack was okay, especially on Off Peak, but I don't know for how much longer I could endure the same tracks over and over again. And that's it? Granted 1) is not really something that the game did, but

God drat.... while the 'music?' is powerfully ok, the visuals remind me of a better game 9: The Last Resort which had better aged visuals than this.

I do appreciate the surreality of the place, just as an experience. It's not something to come back to, but not all games have to be.
