Greetings fellow test subjects. Test Subject 1337 here for Aperture Gaming. They make it, we test it, you play it. It's time to Blow Off Some Steam, as Aperture Gaming is proud to present A BOSS Review.
A quick note. I got a message about the previous review, YIIK, that states in part: "...it's not a demo for a sequel but a demo for a free update for the "First" game". Thank you to YouTube user Hellkrai. Now, onto the main review.
Today we review Harold Halibut. A game made in stop motion. I love stop motion animation, and I'm glad the medium is still active today. You play as Harold, a handyman / custodian / lab assistant on a spaceship about 200 years into the future. You go about your daily activities, when a few strange things start to happen, affect your life and the lives of others.
This is a very heavily narrative game. You do interact with people and items in the environment, but don't expect crazy backflips or epic shootouts. The pacing is a bit slow, but I am interested in seeing how this story ends.
This game took over 10 years to make, because of the puppets and small scale environments, and the odds of DLC that is NOT the soundtrack or an artbook are slim to none.
Overall, this game gets an 8 out of 10.
