as a long standing fan of keita takahashi's work in katamari, im very sad to report that i did not like to a t at all deeply uninspired from a gameplay standpoint, constantly fighting either the controls or the camera in a game that has barely any mechanics at all. very glitchy and very poorly optimized, i experienced multiple severe bugs during my playthrough without really doing anything special. it is also …

That this game was slandered to next Sunday will go down as perhaps the greatest tragedy of gaming in 2025. I can't talk about any particular touching moment without spoiling any of the surprise so I will summarize in one remark: The theme of the game is that you (yes you) are The Perfect Shape (To Be Loved). The game explores this earnestly, with a playfulness you haven't been able to allow yourself to embrace …

To a T is a hard game to recommend. It is barely a game, and a lot of what it wants you to do is grindy and not explicitly 'fun'. But it has a certain charm about it, as much of this creator's work does, that is hard to deny. Also the opening and closing themes are absolute JAMS. If you don't mind a game being a tv-show, and if you don't mind that tv-show being a very slow-paced slice-of-life, then I DO recommend …

absolute delight of a game. wholesome and sweet and cheesy and quirky and fun. as a person with developed disabilities, i extra appreciated the representation in the game and the way it was approached. also the songs ARE SO GOOD. ♪ my name is giraffe~~~ ♪ main downside was the fixed camera angles in free roaming mode that made it hard to navigate the open world, and the controller sensitivity was a tad janky and …

Let me start by saying I would EXCLUSIVELY recommend this to a younger audience, around ages 10 to 15 give or take. I can easily see a younger teen me sinking some hours in this just playing around, but as an adult I struggled to stay engaged with this and cannot in good faith recommend this to an adult. That being said, I think it IS a good game with a very sweet message; that it's okay to be different and that …

60 of 333 · most liked firstSeeing people in the comments saying that To a T was unfun and essentially that he deserves this if he can't make a good game. Gamers, I don't know how else to say this, artists are not supposed to be punished with financial ruin for making imperfect art. That's such a fucked up idea you have

neutral · AI labelView post →In To a T, the player character is a teen whose arms are permanently stuck in a T-pose. Throughout the day, their dog companion helps out with things like getting dressed and brushing teeth; petting this dog is one of the first things you do in the game.

positive · AI labelView post →Legendary game developers having trouble with funding. Ron Gilbert not being able to get a good publishing deal for an RPG he wanted to make. Keita Takahashi having to move back to Japan after To a T doesn't sell well. Somebody needs to bankroll these people to make games for the world.

UConn couldn’t get their pass-first offense going & didn’t have another option. Dawn & these Gamecocks executed the game plan to a T 🤷🏾♀️🤌🏾

positive · AI labelView post →Incredibly excited for "To a T", a game about a child stuck T posing, by the Katamari Damacy creator. But it's also a story about living with a disability and loving yourself as you are, made with help from AbleGamers. Seems incredibly vharming and direct. www.youtube.com/watch?v=7nD9...

neutral · AI labelView post →It's not going to rock your world, but the game is very cute and feels like what'd happen if Keita Takahashi made a Nickelodeon cartoon - but you get to be in control with the game's litany of funny vignettes and sequences. I don't think it's going to be for a lot of people, but it was definitely made for the child in me - and sometimes that kind of joy is really lacking in stuff these days. The latter half of the game's eight episodes is definitely the stronger half, and it dives into the…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Some mixed feelings on To a T. Love its creative spirit and inventive gameplay. A little less enamored with a game about disability that does very little to actually talk about the topic. It has one accessibility option, and that kind of sums it up. My review. www.digitaltrends.com/gaming/to-a-...
neutral · AI labelView post →I'm sad to report I really don't enjoy this game. The long and short of it boils down to having no interesting mechanics with replay value and no meaningful story content. You play this kid's day to day, getting dressed in the morning, washing up, walking to school, sitting through classes sometimes, and each of these activities is accompanied by a mini game. The problem is these mini games aren't much fun, and you will never want to do them more than once or twice. Story wise, it's that…

neutral · AI labelView post →Interesting concept with the usual brand of humor and optimistic absurdism that is quintessential to Keita Takahashi directed games. The music is all A+. I loved the little nods to other Takahashi games. I think for some, the game may feel grindy or repetitive, but it also felt like it was trying (in my mind, successfully) to capture some of the feelings that arise from the daily challenges people with disabilities face. It took complex concepts and reduced them to easily understandable,…

He knows far more than you think or realize he knows how to play the game and he's doing it perfectly to a T per specs of his owner in Moscow. He's a traitor.

It is a bad video game haha. There are moments that are cute and the whole thing is pretty lovingly Japanese in its quirkiness which is nice bonus but I cannot recommend this to anyone lol.
