As someone involved in the game production, you saw all the hard work and miracles that happened. It's your child and you love it even if it's imperfect. As audience, I compare this game to a different one, without any regard to the constrains you had. Heck, I'll give your game a bad score simply because I don't like the genre, in which case there's absolutely nothing you could've done to improve my experience.

I just grabbed my PSP and took a look at the save file of Bloodlines. It says "Percentage completed: 0", which is super strange, because I distinctly remember playing the game as a kid when visiting my aunt. Maybe I actually enjoyed the game, but the savefile got fucked, I got angry, and never played it again? My memories are hazy, but now that I focus, I do remember enjoying it, but not much beyond that.

BTW when looking at the save files, what strikes me is how few games I actually played. To me it seems like there were lots of them, but actually no, I just spent lots of time playing same games.




When you think about it too long, the fact that one day you're a kid, and then you're not a kid anymore is super strange
