General Commentary and Game Overview
A beautiful experience that transcends the boundaries of spacetime.

Now that I've described the macaron I just had, this game's pretty good too.
 
Pros + Decent gameplay
+ Great story
+ Fantastic graphics
 
Cons - Some levels are pretty annoying
- Some of the writing is painful
 
Impressions
Gameplay
8 / 10
The basic gameplay is decent. It's definitely better than default movements, but you do still occcasionally get stuck on things etc.

Some of the levels and gimmicks are better (exploding heads, Shoemaker) and some are worse (the tower level, the Captain O fight).

The story and writing are fantastic. Some of it is wildly unfunny, of course, but a surprisingly large amount was actually quite humorous.
 
Graphics
10 / 10
They're beatiful. Well, not all of them. Some of them are pretty naff. But the ones that aren't are freakin' fantasmic. It's like Undertale a decade before Undertale.
 
Sound
8 / 10
Pretty good music and sounds all around. Nothing that stuck out in good or bad, but a perfectly serviceable collection of tunes.
 
Final Words
9 / 10
It's like an old fangame except good. Perhaps because it IS an old fangame (and good).
