    This is one of the most creative games I've ever played. I would highly recommend it, especially if you are a creative or love games as an experience, as an art or both.

    It's amazing, its awesome, it's one of the most unique things I'ved every played. The story is good, the meta commentary is enjoyable.... aaaaaand it crashes and burns. The game is too short and leaves you longing for more. And on the final bout of the game they scrap it all and turn it into a mario maker.
