Yeah I downloaded it when I was living at DBH and I think you even walked into my room and commented on it.

It did not hold my attention for long

it's mad good, real sweet. Bought the HD remake yesterday, I believe it's still on sale for another 17 hours http://store.steampowered.com/app/221910/

don't listen to merk, he played diablo 3. If you're into FPS's this is a great commentary on pretty much every trope ever. A lot of new content in this standalone remake as well

Keep in mind this game was some shoddy HL2 mod when I played it that tried to talk about how people don't make their own decisions through Bastion levels of narration and forcing you down one path to "win" the game. You don't really "win" per se, you just sort of avoid an abrupt game over and a forced restart.
