Polaris:

Quite visually interesting well being quite simple in layout and execution. It would have been nice to see some more custom props and hires textures used to showcase the small area.

It feels like an all too familiar memory of something you wished had gone different or better and leaves me with the same stomach turning feelings and emotions I get thinking of my own moments and memories.
Admittedly I played it a few times to try to get an outcome I would be happy with. I don't know if that ever happened.
The stargazing was an interesting concept and pretty well executed and challenging at times.

The sounds were nice, though the music from the iPod got a tad annoying but did capture the mood so it is hardly a complaint.

Handle With Care:

Upon entering I felt awkward and a little confused, but it set the mood as it seems the character is/was confused at what to do in an important moment of his relationship.
Again, like the first, the visuals are quite nice with subtle details that once I started to find I started to look for. It built a profile of who I am playing and helped me understand where I was.
Though it took me quite a bit of time to fully establish what I was doing and where I was.
As well, the memory sequences were kind of hard to understand what exactly I was seeing and left me a tad disturbed at times.

The puzzle was neat and quite challenging, but that really depends on how you choose to do it. With that being said I found myself having trouble knowing and understanding if what I was doing was right or not. But I guess that sort of plays into the whole theme. It created quite a dilemma and felt like a lose-lose scenario which left me thinking about what my decision would be in the same situation.

The ending left me pretty choked and feeling a bit down. Rarely do games project such emotions on me. (I blame the music- Which I have playing currently)

Fantastic work. It left me thinking, full of emotion, and wanting much more.
Please make more

There were some parts that I felt were just thrown in and were not connected well to the story- or better put, my interpretation of the direction of the story. So in reality this could just be my issue with it and others may not see it in the same light as me.

Lots of the horror moments are borrowed from Condemned as well as Fear, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing, but for anyone who has played either game you will most likely notice moments which are familiar.
For me, noticing the moments led to me trying to predict what would happen next, which in turn made me take a step back; out of the game and made the moments far more canon.

The weapons felt kind of boring and were predictable in how they worked. Not to say that is a bad thing, but something different wouldn’t hurt.

The voice acting was good, but stiff in places. Namely the ending, lots of the dialogue felt really awkward. More so when you take your time and it repeats.

Overall though, this is a really well done mod and is definitely worth checking out and gathering your own opinion about.
Easy 9 out of 10. Nice work.
