Beyond Crimson Stars

Incredible game, and ss being in this game, awesome...

one of the most beautiful experiences I've had. it's an amazing game.

Ending part [spoiler]where you walk through all of the home videos[/spoiler] gave me chills, as did the last song. Visuals are beautiful, unique, and evoke the headspace that the narration puts you in. Walking speed is a little slow and I got lost a few times, but I don't think the dev was trying to make a game where you always know where to go next and you get there quickly. As someone who lost a parent to health issues at a fairly young age, this struck a chord with me in terms of the mixed emotions you can feel for the one you lost, the struggle to make something meaningful out of that void, as well as the anger and confusion you can feel about the world they brought you into and the more intimate one that they built for you, whether you liked it or not.

I honestly don't really know what to say about this game. It was really trippy. If you like that then it's only a dollar so you should probably just get it. It's good for a buck. It was really bad performance wise though. It wouldn't run at 60 fps for me. I am used the steam deck. I limited the fps to 30 and it would still bounce around a lot but its not that bad. A game like this is fine at 15 fps honestly. If you play on controller you can't run (unless you map the button) so know that (you will want to run, walking is super slow and it's a walking sim). It is so poor performance wise that I have never actually finished the game, as it would crash before I could do so (I tried twice). If you have a buff PC then maybe you will get to see the ending. Or maybe it's because I played on Linux. Also this game does have content such as: A bowling pin saying the f word 50 times, a school shooting that's highly implied but never outright said (it's obvious), and more swear words. It's not that bad honestly. There is a really sus part but it's a guy saying something suggestive. But this game also has suicidal themes as well. Just know when I said trippy I meant trippy. It's $0.99... and it was worth it. I enjoyed my experience and the voice acting is really good.

I don't usually play walking simulators, and I had no clue what was going on most of the time, but the music, narration, and stylistic choices were all top-tier.

Bizarre

8/10 Visuals/OST/Atmosphere - amazing Dialogues - hit-and-miss for me Level design - i've got lost few times Walking speed is way too slow Overall, I've enjoyed it a lot. Hope to see more from you Ben And the price is ridiculously low for the amount of effort that went into this game

jogo pesado, com uma historia muito linda do criador do jogo por tras.
