Quintus and the Absent Truth

lil' stuart

it was very interesting and fun to play. nice short games and the story was intriguing.

Amazing game!

I really enjoyed the first 3 chapters to this game (Chapter 4 isn't out yet). I can't wait for the next chapter to be released- I'm looking forward to exploring the next part of the story

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.

the horizontal view is kinda slow ... 3/5

Adorable game, more mystery than horror, although I did scream a few times..

Quintus And The Absent Truth ist ein sehr gutes Horrorspiel. Die Grafik ist mal etwas anderes, passt jedoch gut zum spiel der Soundtrack unterstreicht die Atmosphäre des Gameplays. Mit 4 Kapiteln plus einem Bonus Kapitel hat das Spiel eine gute Länge. Das Ende war definitiv das Beste am Spiel.

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.
