The pacing is very well done, the procedural generation that also keeps the story rolling is well done, the los res graphics and effects are nicely done, the sound design is amazing, the story writing is light but consistent and immersive.

The story is great, the gameplay is great, and I really like the voice acting, even if at some points it might just seem a little off.
