The Hungry Fly Reviews

this game is fucked up and i dont feel good about myself

[h1]Moments turn into edible corpses[/h1] There's something special about [b]Erupting Avocado[/b]'s games. They're so uniquely them. I can't justify the price tag, 100%'ed the game, at around 2 hours of gameplay, but if you like art that isn't afraid to be weird, dark, and horrific, you're going to love this game. Many times people want answers because they need them--how else would they come to a conclusion about a story or a game or a pair of shoes their debating on buying online? Thinking for yourself is hard, coming to conclusions is hard. What if you're wrong? Better to live passively and let others do that for you 🙃 Can't wait for the next installment.

An interesting surreal horror game about being a fly looking for dead things to eat. Though a playthrough can be completed in under 1.5 hours, the game has multiple endings and is worth replaying. The game has a fantastic retro-inspired visual style and great sound design. I love any game presented through unusual perspectives such as that of the fly, and these mechanics as well as others feel smooth and intuitive. Although I didn't use it, there is a setting to prevent motion sickness, which is a nice accessibility feature. All achievements can be unlocked in 3-4 playthroughs, but there is sadly no chapter select feature or multiple saveslots. The only downside for me was that I found the meaning of the narrative to be a bit unclear. I'm fairly experienced with symbolic games and unfortunately I feel like the themes here just didn't tie together very neatly. It's also possible the game is meant to be deliberately vague and inconsistent, which is fine. Regardless of interpretation, it's a great little experience worth its price.
