Look Outside

Genuinely my game of the year for 2025. Incredible world building and writing / atmosphere elegantly combines cosmic / body horror yet makes the world feel charming and enjoyable. The characters are fun, the game is incredibly replayable with 13 endings and a hard mode that adds brand new enemies and massively changes up the normal gameplay. Over 18 different party members to recruit, who occassionally have fun dialog to events you encounter, and no run being the same to encourage going through the game multiple times to see what party members you can recruit. So many enemies in this game have unique sprites which prevents encounters from feeling samey / grindy. The pixel art is immaculate and very well drawn. The music is just amazing that I don't know exactly what to compare it to. It really gets you into the vibes and mindset of the world, and some of the tracks (Verminator) are so good I listen to them outside of playing sometimes. The best part, is the developer has updated the game so much post launch, bug fixing, balance passes, and just adding new mechanics and content that continues to be fun. If he never touches the game again, it will still be more than worth the asking price, as of writing (8/8/2026), a new update is in the works with even more balance passes / buffing and adding new moves to some of the more basic companions. He just cant resist making more free content.

Aunque el impacto de su horror cósmico pierde efecto en varias ocasiones por que no se toma a sí mismo tan en serio, vale la pena principalmente por las interacciones con el elenco diverso de personajes. La música es buena, el apartado artístico es bueno, la historia es decente y la jugabilidad pues... es la de un título de RPGMaker.

A M A Z I N G Follow the truth!

great rpg with alot of hidden things to do or interactions to find. thers like 13 endings a bunch of companions. the game has hidden things like Casanova mode where if you put your name as casanova it unlocks a hidden mode where you can kiss some enemies and itll charm them. its overall just a neat game worth every bit of the 12 dollars. should be worth 30 imo

I have 9 hours on this game. Thats one sitting. I have not finished it. I haven't had a RPG pull me in like this since expedition 33. The game starts you off with a simple but mysterious event where looking outside will either kill you, or mutate you, and you are trapped in a giant apartment building for the next 15 days with other residents. The mechanics of the game are gonna be familiar to those that have played Earthbound, as it is turn based with a similar design choice for combat. What i love about this game is how every single day in the game, something changes around you, whether it's a NPC you met that WAS friendly and is now hostile, or you can now access certain areas that have somehow been unblocked by something you hope to God you never have to see or fight. The in game clock changes whenever you enter a new area Everytime, there was something new, and there are choices that you can make that usually involve a resident from the apartment building that will affect the story and characters around you. Example: a certain NPC needs their laundry from the ground floor. It's day 1 of 15. By day 5 (I believe), I finally found a way down there and got the laundry. I made my way back up only to find out this NPC had had something horrible happen to her. I don't really wanna spoil anything, but it made my jaw drop, to know that every in game day changes everything. Another example of what this game does, I found a party member that I could finally add to the roster , only to find out a few days later that particular NPC died to a PET if his in a brutal way. I'm still wondering what I could have done to avoid having this happen, as that party member had alot of beneficial skills. The game has a IN game clock, where everytime you exit or enter a new area time passes. It will alert you to what time it is, if it's evening or nighttime. You'll have to make a choice whether or not you wanna come back to you're apartment to rest up, or just continue. Im sure there is consequences to staying up, but I have not yet done it due to this being my 1st run. The artstyle, I love it. The music is also good. Im a big fan of music from the 80s and the music is mysterious and horrible (in good ways). Kinda reminds me of stranger things theme song in some ways. I'm on day 9 now, and I will update this review. But so far, if you like horror, turn based and choices that could affect the story in different ways, at 10 bucks these days its a steal of a game packed with content that I haven't even touched. I heavily recommend look outside.

质量美术都不错，汉化得去B站或者贴吧找，新手上来如果不想开挂最好选简单模式，普通难度做面具结局前几天跑下水道被锅炉兽打得我红温了，想挑战的可以试试诅咒难度的bossrush不开挂谁打谁知道

This is an awesome survival RPG, especially if you find Fear & Hunger brutally difficult. It honestly has everything: a super interesting story, memorable characters, different endings, a great soundtrack, and some really tough fights. I highly recommend going in completely blind, but definitely keep a pen and paper next to you. Taking notes and drawing your own map is a must if you want to keep track of your progress. Easily a 10/10, definitely my favorite game in the genre.
