Quintus and the Absent Truth

Boring!!! Also it kept freezing on me so I kept having to restart it which was hella annoying!

The "technical" events are triggered randomly for me. Restarting the game 3 times gave different results each time, so the game is unplayable for me :-( I'm stuck on the 1st level without being able to do anything relevant. The achievements seem to be broken too. So I can't recommend the game in its current state. Sorry for little Quintus, this game looked nice. For me it's "Quintus and the Absent Game".

it kept crashing after the second chapter, I couldnt do the third, sometimes you also had to do certain things to trigger the next set of events, which I dont like when games do that. But otherwise fine, i wouldnt pay for it though.

Awesome game! Was not expecting the jump scares haha! Can't wait for Chapter 3!

This game was a confusing mix of emotions, where at some points, I really enjoyed it. At others, though, it seemed laughably questionable in writing choices. Game play was pretty standard, and it felt or was mostly a walking-sim. The story I found cute in a 'I think this is a fun indie project, and I'd love to see them put some serious dedication into a better story', but unfortunately it didn't really feel very conclusive. If steam had an option between 'yes, I recommend it', and 'no, I don't recommend it', I'd choose that one. Unfortunately, since it doesn't, I can't give a positive review. Namely because if I give all indie games a good review, some pretty bad ones will end up on top (not that they already don't). In a more constructive note: I'd recommend working on your team's (or your) writing skills from a story aspect. It felt very loose and confusing, while also somehow being 'hand-holdy' through cut-scenes. It all felt like a lot of talent, but used in a confusing way. I'd also add that the animations felt a little stiff for most things, honestly. Ultimately, keep doing what you're doing, and don't let my review discourage you. Sometimes the best art is made when we keep pushing through, or just make it to make it.

Seems to be almost unplayable, all of the controls function normally for a controller except for the "look" function. In order to do a full 360 in the game it took almost three solid minutes. So as you can imagine a game where you're trying to "find" things by looking for them with a look function that moves slower than someone who just broke a hip is quite excruciating. I really wanted to like this one, it's a cool concept, but I struggled through playing for a half hour to only get to "find the key"—that's when I lost all patience for the fact that I couldn't just casually peak around a room, I had to literally sit there and wait for the painfully slow right stick to track around the room. Tried to change settings to fix it, but nothing helped. I'd be willing to give this game another shot if this got fixed.
