I thought this was pretty neat. :) The art is all enjoyable and the building itself it well designed and nice to look at and walk around in. There is definitely a very solid idea in here, and I would love to see more! museum things like this are always good fun in a video game like format because you can enjoy things how you want and in an easier way. In terms of the building as well i'd never considered how video games don't have handicap designed buildings or rooms, such a simple detail never even considered, i know want to go through bunch of favorite games just to look at the architecture now! And i really liked Paul Smith's work, i think it's really amazing how he makes art just with a couple keys on a typewriter.
I do wish there was more explanations to things in the museum, almost all the work the the museum has no explanation to who made it, why, it's impact or anything else. I wish it did had more plaques to explain things, or maybe even a little tape thing you could pick up and then listen to that would explain many of the exhibits. the lack of explanations really hurt the audio only exhibits, if there was a button to explain what i was going to listen to i think it'd make the poems and song even more impactful. The only one that had an explanation was the Jessica park exabit, which was nice. Though I'll note the subtitles often wouldn't line up what was being said, they'd move to fast and not fil up much the text box. that's another thing, the subtitles could use more work, make sure they show up on every audio interaction and when they do last longer and fil the screen more. A minor nit pick is also i wish the art was higher quality, like the Paul Smith last supper image is low enough quality you can't admire his work and see the symbols he used :( one last thing, the game is waaay to sensitive when using mouse and keyboard! the screen would shake so much when i tried to move even a little, made my head hurt and unable to really play. But when i used a controller it played fine and felt like it was made for it.
But this was a very neat idea, i liked it, and want to see more! I would love more work, a bigger building, explanations, i think y'all have a brilliant idea here and something that could be very touching to a lot of people. So i wish y'all the best of luck and i hope the next thing y'all make is even better :D
