Trying to decided whether to start this or Moon this weekend. Real excited about about both of them.
One of the developers, Oliver Clarke-Smith was a designer on Rogue Warrior and 50 Cent Blood On The Sand.
This is quite the glow up!

I'm a simple man. I see detective game, high discount in Humble Bundle and I buy.
Excited to try this, although it might go to my backlog for a while.

This looks like a game Switch can run in its sleep, so I'm more worried about any bugs or glitches than I am performance.
Damn.
Do we know who composed the soundtrack? I love this stuff. I need more.
The soundtrack is here. By the way, composers get 100% of the revenue this friday if you want to pick it up

Been playing the game docked for 3-4 hours and it's runs just fine. No slowdowns or dynamic resolutions shenanigans to be seen.
And the game is dooooope. Wasn't expecting straight up exploration to take so much "space" in the gameplay, having a blast so far.
Having recently played through Return of the Obra Dinn, and enjoying it immensely, this seems like something I should pay attention to. A good presentation goes a long way, and detective stories are rad.
I really want to know how the whole 'accuse whoever/whenever' thing feels, like how people react to never knowing if they solved the mystery 'correctly' or not. Is it still satisfying? Aside from that aspect, the whole package looks amazing.
Honestly one of the major flaw of the game I saw while playing for my review, is that even if you find some important evidence on a suspect you'll get a dismissive answer or something like: "Someone is trying to frame me". And Lady Love Dies will be ok with that.The point is that everything you discover will sort out only during the trials that basically ends the game. Still the trials part is great and satysfing since you see all your work validated but for me this come too late in the game and create some pacing issue. But still a great game, especially at that price.

" An incredible world of demons, mystery, and vaporwave, Paradise Killer sets a new standard for investigative gameplay; I felt untethered and invested in the world's mysteries in a way I've never felt in a detective game before. The neon sheen, fantastic soundtrack, quirky characters, and narrative twists make it one of the best whodunits you can play. "
Damn. It's a buy then.
I guess I'll have to put Cross Code and Remnant to the side for a little bit.
Out now on Steam
My only gripe so far is how fast travel costs Blood Crystals when there's a lot of other finite ressources to buy with them. There's plenty around to find but using them for that feels like wasting them. Since I'm not far into the game I'd rather travel by foot anyway to find stuff on the island but in the end it might end up being annoying.
Maybe there's a way to get a discount down the line.

Agree, honestly I completed nearly everything in the game and couldn't find a discount. I admit that at the end, when you know by memory the layout of the island, pay to move around is annoying. Anyway unlocking the
Meditation
Nooooooo.
I guess I'm trying to play Crusader Kings 3, Wasteland 3, and this at the same time.
I think I sequence broke something or something is bugged, I've played for like 6 hours and went into the
just because I'm randomly exploring, then unlocked a computer there and found some evidence, then the character says "oh so I guess this was what One Last Kiss wanted me to find", and I'm sitting here "who the hell is One Last Kiss?!" then it suddenly starts a dialog with her and my character acts like I've met her before, even though this is the first time I can recall seeing her.
