More information.

Its like the devs decided "Okay, we are trying to make the worst possible game for our budget" and this is what we got.

The artstyle is aesthetically awful
The animation is laughable
I dont know what they were thinking of with the voice acting
The music and sound effects should get on your nerves

This game is made as fodder for people to say that pc gaming is garbage.
