Interesting narrative, mechanics, and art, but overall the game is almost unplayable in its current state. Enemies are almost impossible to kill. The shooting mechanic is entirely broken, and the "reality" meter is unbalanced. There are combat sequences near the end that make the entire experience unbearable. I'd say this game is definitely worth playing, but wait a while before you do. They need time to work the …

Double is a poorly made Adobe Flash tier 2D side scrolling hybrid visual novel/adventure game/arcade shooter, and it's very bad at all of these jobs. Combined, it's truly far, far less than the sum of its parts. The game has you guiding a soldier with PTSD through his various traumas, badly. Trying to address social issues through the medium of video games is misguided and can be harmful. While it's plausible to …

Double is psycho thriller with a great depressing theme that just fits perfect in the game! It's about a guy that comes back from war with a PTSD The game plays in a psychiatry and his dreams about his past When he is awake its mostly conversations with his doctor and the other people in the psychiatry. In his dreams you are "replaying" his past in the war You have to remember every little detail in this game, …

Recommended despite of several downsides. Pro: - Give some comprehensible insights on how schizophrenia works (not sure whether those effects really match PTSD) - Atmospheric presentation - Short and sweet. It took me (without idle time) about three hours to finish this game, and I died several times and was not rushing. The story gets unfold in this time without feeling dragged out or hasted. Con: - The combat is …

In Double we play from Carlos´ perspective and we find ourselves in a mental asylum in Cuba. He doesn't remember how he got there and our mission consists in discovering that through the dialogs. The name of the game has its reason to be, as the duality is present in its design with a narrative + dialog based mode while the protagonist is awake, and a 2D shooter when he is having nightmares. Decisions matter, so …

60 of 395 · most liked firstThe demo version of Mario Kart: Double Dash contains an unused Game Over screen. Notably, the smoke graphics used here are humorously called "smork" internally. It is unknown if this is a legitimate misspelling of "smoke" or if the word was deliberately spelled in a funny way.

neutral · AI labelView post →Double Fine to me seems like one of the last big holdovers of a certain "we're all friends here" twee cliquish indie game culture that sees itself as progressive but is not so much in reality i associate with the 2010's. so the unionization efforts getting torpedoed doesn't really surprise me

Quite engaging throughout. The choices that you make will impact the ending. The music is good. The sound design is okay. No voiceovers. Just texts. The gameplay is decent. Somewhat clunky. You have to play it with KB+M. My Xbox controller didn’t work with this game. The in-game Steam screenshot function (F12 key) doesn’t work.…
