Visually, I'm sorta reminded of Maniac Mansion due to some of the themes and the character design, though the soft dithered pastels put me more in mind of Cruise for a Corpse.

Sound design is great, and you'll quickly learn what different sounds in the game mean, so you can instantly make decisions based on what you hear.
