I was hoping someone would make a topic about it...I guess because I just didn't want to?

Anyway, I got it yesterday. So far, its visually and usually musically (but sometimes really creepy and annoying) entertaining and the whole 2.5d aspect has been interesting and fun to play with. The story isn't anything spectacular but most of the characters are humorous and likable, except for the dot that follows you. One thing I'm not sure I like is the fact that while the world is mainly linear, at the same time its not linear at all. The whole point is to find all the golden cubes but its so easy to just enter another area, via a door, thinking it will have a definitive end point and return to where you entered, but instead it just keeps going and there's a good chance you missed something like or cubes or other doors. Basically, its easy to get lost. Now from what I understand you can go back to these other places pretty easily or go to places that connect to them but I haven't experimented with the gateways yet so I'm not sure how that works. The retro feel of the game is pretty cool though and there's a nice little tie in to the story/world that really makes it as if you're playing an old self-aware atari or nes game.

It's definitely something unique to check out at the least.
