I don't know when I found this but i got really into story and the and the gameplay. the moment I can I'm goin to buy every single game this guy makes because I can tell there is talent and care put into it Currently, I can't afford the sequel. but I want to. When I say every game, I mean every game. This guy is a small developer, but I can tell he has talent. a whole lot of it, and it deserves to be seen. by so many people. The story is incredible. Engaging the game play while simple. fits pretty much. I think what he was going for. and I'm really excited to see what other stuff they're cooking up And when I can, I will play Julian and friends live on stream. Keep up the good work. Oh yeah. Until Gerald to cool off. Man, I don't want him giving you a Piece of his mind. I would seriously recommend this if you grew up back when Windows XP was. everywhere like early. windows you will enjoy this Just watch out for Julian. :)
