To the Moon

Finally got around to playing this on Switch. It was a really sweet, affecting story, but man did it need an editor. Almost every single line of dialogue either has weird grammar and errors, or is just so clumsily worded and awkward.

I’m kinda stunned that in all the years it’s been out, and after all of the ports, no one ever thought to take another stab at it. I managed to get through it and enjoy it, but since the writing was basically the only thing on display, you’d think it would be - if not at the time, at least retroactively - handled with more care.

The idea was really wonderful, but I don’t think the guy that made it was really up to the task of writing it alone. I might be in the minority with that take, though.
