Henry's Day Reviews

TLDR; Get it on sale, it's a fun sort of walking sim/ time loop game. To start, this is a fun time loop game, that is about 2 hours long. It's clearly a 1-2 people team that made the game, and it does have some wonky physics that reflect that. It is not bug ridden, but you can sequence break in this game, and they have accounted for that. I like the game, I think it's a great indy game, but I would say get it on a sale as the asking price is fairly high for what the experience is.

The story for this game is incredible and is most certainly the highlight of the game. This game does not hold your hand which can be good or bad depending on your preference. Personally I liked exploring the game world and finding the side quests and reading the little silly comments the characters would make. There are some minor delays in the graphics when the game world would load in certain buildings or objects. I know the developer released a patch recently that addressed some of that so I am assuming they will continue to update the game. Considering this was a solo developed game I’m thoroughly impressed as this is one of the better indie games I’ve gotten my hands on.

I initialy gave this a negative review, based on lack of keybinds and graphical features. Since then the devs released an update covering both within days, and to the degree that one would expect of current games, I'll change my review to positive. As such this review will continue with an optimistic impression of the devs' intents. I went in with the plan to test the controls on keyboard/mouse and controller and testing the graphics settings. Graphics settings nailed it! Game now plays flawlessly based on my settings, tailored to my pc. As for controls, either I messed up something bad or they're still a bit janky. Was able to certainly set keyboard/mouse just fine but the mouse would only work on the Y axis(I searched for an invert button as well but didn't find it; may have simply missed it). Pivoted to an unaltered controller setting. Joypad was inverted and replicated the same Y axis on camera pan. Update was so fast that I can see where something may have been missed, and this is simply a hotfix away. Good company that responded fast to issues without complaint. I'm willing to suffer a couple growing pains of a new game as a result.
