story30 mentions Positive Neutral NegativeThe story in "Protothype: A Love Story" is a creative yet flawed narrative about unrequited love, woven into gameplay through voice acting and puzzle-solving. While some players appreciate the unique storytelling style reminiscent of titles like "The Beginner's Guide," many criticize the game for its frustrating minigames that detract from the narrative experience. Overall, the story is seen as short and easy to follow, but it struggles to maintain player engagement throughout.
“The voice acting was cool and the storytelling was done in a unique way!”
“That being said, it is very creative in some areas and the voice acting is pretty good; the way the story is woven within the gameplay is one of the better aspects.”
“While I did receive this game for free and I am 100% biased since I did the voice acting, I think this is a great little game that tells a nice love story of a developer and his classmate.”
“Protothype: A Love Story tries to be a similar experience to games such as The Stanley Parable but fails incredibly at it, with a compilation of small, frustrating minigames. It's not that they're hard to get through, but the game makes zero effort in guiding you or at least providing clues. Moreover, these minigames have nothing to do with the story; their only purpose seems to be to extend what would be a five-minute story.”
“Other than that, it's just what I assume is a small life lesson about how you must never give up on love, telling the story of a guy who fell in love with a girl who didn't respond to his feelings.”
“The storytelling style is reminiscent of The Beginner's Guide, but it doesn't quite hit the mark when compared.”
