Well, well, well. Seeing as this game is completely unfinished, I am not entirely sure what to say.

The game starts out with a nice title screen listing a bunch of people who worked on the game, and some music. It preps you for an awesome game. The menu screen is not too bad, sporting some graphical buttons and a title.

The crude default-font credits scroller at the bottom is the first sign that the game is going downhill (actually the readme is the first sign, but I will assume most people didn\'t read that). The about and info options take you to a nice big wad of spam slapped in your face. Obviously that part is incomplete.

The game itself is quite boring, being unfinished and all. You just kinda walk around, and that\'s it. There are some weird kind of pill things on the screen which you can walk over, but not actually pick up or even collide with. From the allegro.cc forums I found out you could control two of the characters, controlling a troll (hey, at least they got part of the rules down) with WASD. Hey, the characters have animation. There\'s something.

The in-game graphics are not terrible, seemingly pre-rendered 3d graphics (generally not my favorite graphic style, since it almost always looks cheap and/or unfitting completely--this game probably is not an excuse). Still, they had two different artists helping out!

So in short, this game is not really a game (no objective, way to win or lose), I\'m not sure what it is a parody of, and I do not believe it uses sine waves either.
