It’s a storybook about a robot that needs to discover what humanity is all about or else his model will be scrapped indefinitely. He is Pinocchio or Lieutenant Commander Data. The game looks like a storybook, too: Clear outlines and eye-searing Crayola that sometimes slips out of them. It’s goofy, and a bit mad-cap. You fly to other planets via a whale with wings. One planet is entirely made of trash with piles of cartoon poo walking around. On another the anthropomorphic sushi realize they’re food and hide to avoid being eaten. It’s that type of game.
Filipe Salgado can’t figure out who Doki-Doki Universe is for.
Ah I’m so glad this crossed my dashboard. I heard about this when it was announced and was excited but forgot.
