The writing is so bad, I'm shocked there wasn't a "Aaaaaaaaand he's right behind me" gag.

It's the first game in a while I've been able to sit down and play in one day because it's kept me interested. While there's not too many places you go and visit, for the length of the game it was probably a good call on their part. The places you do go to are beautifully designed and interesting visually.

There is a few small bumps such as characters pausing during conversations until the game loads up the choices which breaks the flow a little and models glitching out/sinking into the ground/snapping back into place but it's nothing that impacts the overall gameplay. Bear in mind that Night School Studio only has 13 full-time employees.

The dialogue is well written and I found myself pausing multiple times just to hear what random NPC's had to say as well as Milo and Lola themselves. While for the most part it's lighthearted and goofy it handles more serious topics and tones (such as their insecurities) well.

Overall fun and engaging, I'm definitely going to do another playthrough :).

EDIT: I think what might of helped Afterparty a little more if their advertisement went a little differently? For a game called Afterparty, you don't really do that much partying in hell. While it didn't bother me personally I can see why people felt a little misguided when they came to play it. Just as a heads up for people really looking forward to getting heavily drunk in hell.

i didn't expect to enjoy this game as much as i currently am but i am really pleasantly surprised. i haven't played too many of the more recent sonic games (lost world, boom, forces) due to their pretty bad reputation so it's nice to see a good turn around with this. it may not be a mainline sonic game, but i still like it just as much.the stages are really creative with great set pieces and i'm glad there's merges of zones rather than something more of the likes of generations (i.e how the track boo's house is a merge of sandopolis zone and pyramid cave). it's familiar while also keeping things fresh as apposed to playing green hill zone over and over and over again.the story mode is fun despite the plot being a little weird/predictable. i'm honestly just enjoying the character interactions more than what they actually have to say. i don't see the change in voice actors too much of a big deal but i will say rouge's voice in particular is a little off putting. it feels a bit out of place in comparison to the rest of the cast (that and maybe big but that's just because big is, well...big.)i thought the chatter throughout the races would get repetitive and a bit annoying really fast but i'm actually loving them.i can't say too much about the online play because i haven't stuck around long enough to try it, but just from the small experimentation with it it seems as though it takes a really long time to find anybody else who's playing. that could just be due to the fact i've only tried during off peak hours.i didn't pay full price and would i of done after playing it for a few hours? nah. but if you're interested in this game in any shape or form then wait for it to be on sale.it's also just really nice to here a crush 40 theme again tbh.

i don't know how they took the concept of killing demons in hell and made it just kinda boring and repetitive but they sure did

the fact you can't fast travel while in a vehicle is more annoying than what ya'll make ava out to be

10/10 for emotional pain and suffering

Really fun and goofy to play with friends as well as on your own, been really enjoying my experience with it so far!
