Nice review -- especially the ending.

Some issues here:

"Here’s a thing that happens: one you bypass the initial stage that exists to easy you into the game (but will still probably kill you less than a minute after you boot it up)"

Should be ONCE and EASE.

Anyway, this looks like a strong candidate for Rob's RotW.

I don't have to prove I'm refined - that's what makes me refined!

I came across this game's Steam page, and the brief enough glimpse of in-game action tips its hat as to its true origins. I played Sticky Bear (a spelling game) on the Apple IIe, and don't recall any buzz about a game by this title. It would have sold a million thanks to its Bladerunner-esque cinematic prowess, undoubtedly - though it's a clever approach for such a venture.

Just how many disks would a game this fluidly animated fill, anyway? The developers aren't hiding the fact that this is a new production, but it does beg the technical questions of what it would have required of era appropriate hardware. Perhaps someone will explore those questions.

Good review!

P.S., there's a "then" that needs wrangling.

Look, the only time I'm not wrong is when I'm right, so...

There is no way this would have run on an AppleII. I'me not convinced it can run on a mac. (haha @ Macs)

It's a great cinematic platformer that anyone who remembers Another World or even Prince of Persia fondly should really take a look at. Thanks, both, for reading and for the catches.

For us. For them. For you.
