Jan. 2025

Just an awful little game Procedural horror meets absolute nonsense in this meat-filled masterpiece. The story follows you saving your girlfriend. That's about it. She was sucked into a meat hole while you two were on a picnic. Now, you need to get her out of said meat hole. The trouble is that the meat hole is full of various dangers. The crux of the game involves moving from a central hub level (a rose meadow) to a "meat world" via an elevator. You enter the elevator and it takes you to the floor you were at previously. Your goal at each floor is to locate keys and use them to unlock subsequent elevator doors to get you deeper down the meat hole. Now, the game play really boils down to finding these keys, but as you do so you will find randomized weapons -- anything from a pipe, to a camera, to a fireman's axe -- and use these weapons to battle meat monsters. The monsters in this game can be visibly seen or can be mimics which disguise themselves as ordinary objects like books or computers. The level layout is random each time and so is the location of the keys. I had a level where the keys were basically right next to the elevator and I had another where I had to search high and low for a key. Anyway, you will be confronted by monsters in a jumpscare-like manner often and will need to do whatever it takes to either kill the monster or escape, or both. Attacking with weapons is somewhat cumbersome, so fighting may not always be the best idea. In either case, when you die (and you will die often) you will respawn back in the meadow, having lost all of your items, but retaining your level progress. The upside of dying is that you won't have to deal with the terrible things that lurk in the meat hole and you can explore the meadow in search of items that can help you. That's really the crux of the game. It offers a ton of nonsensical dialogue and lots of good freight. If you're a fan of being startled, then this is your jam. If you're interested in more psychological horror, then not a good choice. But generally, this game is a solid one that I dive in to occasionally, regret diving into, and forget about for several days only to return and repeat the process.

not just beating my meat, but eating it, shooting it, breathing it, sitting on it, becoming it, talking to it, having romantical feelings for it, throwing it, hacking with it, slashing with it, attacking it, breaking it, dying upon it, killing upon it, dying with it, killing with it, and also probably having sex with it.

Takes advantage of the universal fear of the unknown a bit too well. You will be confused You will be scared You will run You will fight You will have fun. Good game.

while I never got that far into this game, buy it for the design and atmospehere alone. The very world feels hostile, alien, and sentient. While I found the combat janky and not super satisfying, I believe this by design, as you feel like a rat in a maze descending into the Gut. Lots of searching hallways for keys and running away from squelching sounds. The plot of this game is still a mystery to me, but it is intriguing and encourages further play.

Golden Light is what I could qualify as the best representation of what it feels like to be stuck in the Benadryl dimension. Horrors beyond expanation mixed with consumable weapons makes for a nice & cute game where you try surviving un-imaginable eldritch horrors that merge into microwaves & Tv's.
