PAL

after o2 drops once, getting back second time seems impossible for my small brain. good luck. walkthrough needed. maybe.

This game made me feel something different? Eternal dread? YES an intense amount of confusion EVEN BETTER. This game took what I thought horror games should be and made it even scarier. SO scary in fact the first time I died I QUIT thats how spooky this is. 5/5

"Pal" is a game that, unfortunately, falls far short of its potential. Marketed as a horror experience, it lacks the essential elements that define the genre, leaving players with a disjointed and frustrating experience. From its incomplete gameplay to its lack of direction, "Pal" feels more like an abandoned project than a finished product. Gameplay: 2/10 The gameplay in "Pal" is virtually nonexistent. The game starts as a walking simulator, with no clear objectives, tutorials, or guidance. Players are left wandering aimlessly through poorly designed environment, wondering what they’re supposed to do. The lack of any meaningful interaction or mechanics makes the game feel like a chore. The situation doesn’t improve when the game introduces a spaceship control segment. The controls are non-existent making what should be a pivotal moment in the game an exercise in frustration. It’s clear that this section was either poorly tested or rushed, as it feels completely out of place and adds nothing to the overall experience. Horror Elements: 1/10 For a game billed as a horror title, "Pal" is sorely lacking in scares. There are no atmospheric tension, no jump scares, and no psychological horror elements to speak of. The environments are bland and uninspired, failing to create any sense of dread or unease. The absence of a compelling narrative or memorable characters further detracts from any potential immersion. Graphics and Sound: 3/10 Visually, "Pal" is underwhelming. The graphics are somewhat cartoony, yet ruind by the fov and the grain filter and repetitive environments that do little to engage the player. The sound design is equally lackluster, with a forgettable soundtrack and sound effects that fail to enhance the experience. There’s no attempt to use audio to build tension or create a spooky atmosphere, which is a missed opportunity in a horror game. Overall Experience: 2/10 "Pal" feels like an unfinished, abandoned project. The lack of polish, direction, and meaningful content makes it difficult to recommend to anyone. While there may have been potential for an interesting horror experience, the game in its current state is a mess. It’s unclear whether the developers plan to revisit and complete the project, but as it stands, "Pal" is a disappointing and forgettable entry in the horror genre. If you’re looking for a genuinely scary or engaging horror game, you’re better off looking elsewhere. "Pal" is a prime example of wasted potential and serves as a reminder of how important it is for developers to deliver a complete and functional product.
