    Randall has the markings of a decent game, especially when it comes to platforming but the bad dialogue, bizarre design choices, dull combat, and overall glitchiness make it hard for me to recommend in its current state.

    Whether it was the shoddy writing, non-existent character development, the floaty platforming physics or the combat mechanics that are often at odds with themselves, Randall is the kind of game that is no more than the sum of its parts. Unfortunately, that sum does not add up to a memorable experience.

I hope We The Force continues to move forward in game development, because there’s a lot that can be learned from their debut effort. Unfortunately, that can’t fix the problems that plague their project now.… Full Review »
