School: The Hardest RPG in Your Life is a student project from Neumont College of Computer Science. One of the first things students should be taught in game development is that 3D graphics became mainstream in the mid 1990's with dedicated 3D cards like the Voodoo3 and the ATI Rage. But the students were deliberately mistaught that's it's okay to release obsolete 2D games in the 3D era of gaming... certainly any professional developer seeing a prospective new hire who doesn't even know about 3D gaming probably isn't going to give them a job. Needless to say if an educational institution taught me incorrectly on purpose, I'd ask for my money back. This is a really poorly made, simplistic lightweight "I can't believe it's not RPG Maker" RPG with a theme around surviving school and passing classes or having to go to summer school instead of getting time off. A lot like the students here, who had to make a 2D game and then discovered their tuition didn't tell them that game companies don't hire developers who can't make games for the 21st century, which use 3D graphics. This is worthless in any student portfolio, and even more worthless for us gamers, who were never considered at any point up to and including the publication of this mess here on Steam. We also have to question what value there is for gamers on Steam when institutions flood the store with low quality 2D video game homework assignments... sure, it might make the students feel good about themselves, but this has no benefit for gamers who have to wade through this stuff to find professionally made 3D games. This features really godawful pixelcrap "art" instead of real graphics. It's hard to say if this was because the developer didn't have the skill to do the job of creating 3D visuals, or couldn't afford to hire someone who does, but it also doesn't matter. What matters is that this looks much worse than most other games because of that decision, and that's a major deterrent to gamers. Games like Terraria and Stardew Valley succeeded [i]despite[/i] the bad graphics, not because of them. On pricing, this is "free" enough, at least you won't be expected to spend any more money after you download this, but just because something is free doesn't mean it's good, and the cost of a game is more than just financial, your time is valuable too. Despite having no up-front cost, this failed to appeal to the 120 million+ gamers on Steam. SteamDB showed the game peaked at only 2 concurrent players... this is a dismal public reception. This was so bad they couldn't even give it away. Bearing in mind that free games don't add +1 to your game collector count, should you bother adding this to your library and downloading it? Nope. This isn't worth downloading. There's no financial cost up-front, but you'd still be spending your time and a little hard drive space on a product that's far from the best. There's thousands of better alternatives on Steam.

Sadly this isn't it. The introduction that lasts an eternity is not skippable, and you'll have to go through it every time you die (because there aren't checkpoints). The fights feel bland and repetitive, there are no healthbars, the NPCs all use the same sprites. I didn't have fun at all, you simply have to spam the attacks basically. I went into it thinking it would have had something to do with school (such as fights that include operations or something) but it's simply the facade of it to cover the nothingness that this game is.

game just froze during a battle

how is there no reviews bro

Игра 'School: The Hardest RPG in Your Life' – это суровый, но до боли знакомый симулятор школьной жизни, обернутый в обертку RPG. Забудьте про эпичные битвы с драконами, здесь ваши главные враги – строгие учителя, невыученные уроки и социальная неловкость. Система прокачки персонажа заключается в поднятии оценок, развитии навыков общения и выживании в иерархии школы. Выбор фракции – кружок по интересам, спортивная команда или компания хулиганов – кардинально влияет на игровой процесс и доступные квесты. Игра подкупает своей реалистичностью и юмором. Узнаваемые ситуации, типа списывания на контрольной или попыток избежать разговора с директором, вызывают ностальгическую улыбку. Однако хардкор велик: одно проваленное задание может повлечь за собой целую череду неприятностей, а неправильно выбранная реплика в диалоге испортит отношения с важным NPC. Если вы готовы к испытаниям, которые закаляют характер и напомнят о самой сложной RPG в вашей жизни – добро пожаловать в школу! Только не забывайте делать домашнее задание.

Great basic game. Had so much more fun than I thought. A few bugs, but it is an enjoyable short experience.
