Dear Esther Eyefinity

[Slinky]

Game was just released 30 mins ago and I snatched it up right away. Its gonna be a short playthrough but ill support games like this for 10 bucks anyday. Here are 2 very short(and i mean short) videos of the game working absolutely perfectly in eyefinity.

I am thinking of picking this one up, what do you think about the game now that you've played it? Recommend?

this is just my opinion.. but the narrative is very cool. note i didnt say "game" cause its not really a game.
you just (relatively slowly) walk around, no other controls aside from wsad. and as you hit certain points a narrative is triggered.

the graphics are very pretty and captivating as is the voice acting.
you can walk through the entire narrative in around an hour at which point you are essentially done.

the speach that is triggered is, as the dev says, random. so there multiple walk through can net you things you had not heard before.
think of it more as an art project, a short narrative, or maybe the future of "book (story) on tape" even.

the guy put a lot of time and effort into it over the years, but other than some rehashed graphics its not "that" different from the free version that came out in 08 and had some updates in 09. i think around mid to late 09 no new updates were released as they were all saved to release the game for $ instead of free.

for 10$ i would probably download the free mod for HL2.. which since HL2 supports UW res so well i don't see why it wouldnt just work (As does the new release). Another interesting note is that i enjoy the acting and have actually followed the project over the last year+. If the dev released this game and said please donate, i put years into this. i would have sent him 5$. but charging 10$ for something that was free (And still is if you can find the mod dl) but is just prettied up is too much IMO.

again this is my opinion.. but im also a 90s computer gamer, when all mods and dlc and everything were free.

I picked it up yesterday, I did like it, nice and amazing looking environments, but it felt a bit short, played though it in about 85minutes and I was stopping and enjoying the scenery often. It's nothing challenging but more of a visual experience, Will definitely use this game to show off Eyefinity to friends and relatives whom have never experienced Eyefinity before.

The only negative things I can say was that the walking pace was a bit slow for my liking and maybe a bit short.
