About halfway through the hospital/casino. This game is not good it’s great.

I never played the first one so I didn’t know what to expect. But I haven’t seen a game like this since… Earthworm Jim? Maybe ever.

This game reminds me of late 90's games. Just a lot of fun and very different. I'm about 6 hours in and combat remains pretty basic, everything else is amazing and have had some really good laughs with some of the dialog.

This is a nice break from the super competitive games that are popular.

once I started looking at it similar to super mario odyssey, I turned down my expectations for the combat…the game is just really a remarkable adventure overall tho

Just beat the game. Great writing; combat is repetitive, but the world's are completely different and unique platforming.
7/10

Would love to see what DF can do w/ an AAA budget and a brand new IP.
Psychonauts 2 dev Double Fine wants its next game to be "new and original and surprising"

Hopefully the next title is what I'm asking for.

I think doublefine specifically said they’re not trying to go bigger. They want to make more games, that are similar in scope to Psychonauts. Kind of like how they followed up psychonauts with brutal legend, i would expect more of that
