When you hold an object, your hand rotates with the movement of the mouse.
Major props for that.ĭ) In a strange but understandable decision, they went for an effect where your body is visible when looking down, which was certain hard work to achieve from the developers, no doubt.
It's not just a 'nice to have' - it what makes this game - this game and no other game. You wonder why it's for - and realise it was to build the next room - everything is a model of what's to come. For example, there's a little workshop of miniatures you enter with a painting set and so on. I haven't seen a single 'generic corridor' in this game.Ĭ) Every scene tells a story. Sometimes walls are made of 4 or 5 different beautifully hand drawn textures. As per my screenshot, you'll see the back of cupboard cheaply made doesn't look like the wall that supports it, the draping next to it, the carpets, etc. Even the entrance reveal is quite something to behold, but then so are each and every room in the hotel scene, feeling 'lived in' with hundreds of 3d models used to make realistic interiors.
#PARADISE LOST GAME PLOT ARCHIVE#
For an indy title, it's impressive to note:Ī) The carefully crafted movement animations (passing under a train carriage, going down a ladder, squeezing oneself through old archive files: all of those have been animated by hand specificalliy for that sequence).ī) The HUGE amount of effort put into making each room/chamber/factory unique and a REAL pleasure to discover (each room serves a purpose and is carefully layed out).
What struck me was the incredible attention to visual detail. "Paradise Lost" is "Dear Esther" meets "Bioshock" and had a baby that looks like "Firewatch" set in a very interesting, hyper detailled steampunk revisionist 'Nazis went underground' setting. I write my reviews as I play the game to make sure not to miss anything, and pride myself in having the most detailed walking simulator reviews on Steam. Hi Adidas here, I'm the crazy man in his 40's who maintains the "Walking simulator Fan Club", so I played dozens of these games so i can say with relative authority that I have a good idea of what makes a good game vs a mediocre one.
