Skin Deep

Was really in the mood for an immsim, had been eyeing this for a while and gave it a try. In the first real level... - I killed a space pirate by breaking a window and venting the room into space myself included - Snuck back into the ship via trash chute which made me so stinky other space pirates to detect me by smell - Used my stinkiness to bait the lead space pirate around a corner where I placed a banana peel - Copied the lead space pirate's ship key while he was recovering from slipping on a banana peel - Used the stolen key to steal the space pirate's boarding pod ship and escape like some sort of trash covered Jack Sparrow.

I wanted to like this game so badly, love the aesthetic and corniness, but: [olist] [*] I didn't realize it was level based, and [*] the amount of handholding in the tutorial really turned me off from wanting to play [/olist] I wish more games would let you disable character self-talk, tutorials, explanatory labels, and obnoxious characters telling you what to do every 5 seconds. It's ok to let players discover game mechanics, especially in a game like this with some goofy ones. I would've been far more entertained if the game just let me try stuff to see what happens, but apparently even slight amounts of player frustration are completely unacceptable these days.

A really special game. Full of fun surprises and great level design. Topped off with a story with a perfect length.

Creative and funny. Loving it so far.

60fps cap in current year

more immersive sims with some humor please

A lovely little imsimy stealth gem that requieres you to engage in slapstick action if you want to get rid of enemies. It's almost like a more forgiving 3D version of Heat Signature. The story isn't anything exceptional, but it's competently told and for some games that's enough. Definitly a game that I would recommend to fans of the genre as well as those wanting to dip their toes into it

Mechanically one of the best immersive sims there is. So much attention to details, to the possibilities of every item, the ways to improvise...
