Not sure who took it, but that's from ColDreams. It's a nice-looking game. Too bad it's pretty bad otherwise. XD

Ta for the heads-up. Yeah, the game seems to exhibit mild symptoms of Walking Simulatoris Regularis. Such a shame, really: might've been a real corker if they pulled off something more coherent and gameplay-driven in those nice snowy environments of theirs. ;(
Oh well, at least we've had a screenie out of it!

It's not really walking simulator problems; I quite enjoy well-done walking simulators. It namely suffers from poor game designs, which includes bugs and glitches. The plot is badly written and the dialogue is pretty unrealistic, not to mention the voice acting is lousy. It also has SYMBOLISM that turns out to be more SYMBOLISM than actually meaning stuff. It's far from the worst game out there, but it isn't great, either. (I say this from watching someone on Youtube play it and watching my friend blindstream it; never picked it up myself for probably obvious reasons.)

Well, my comment was based on a quick clickthrough of a single YT video, so my 'informed opinion' could pretty well be entered in this very contest as a pitch-black screenshot of a shot in the dark - but the game did seem to suffer from the inherent introspective nature of walking simulators.
The player's character is alone, so the game designer either has to give the player something to examine (exposition via environment), or give the player's character something to think aloud about (exposition via dialogue). Unfortunately, what we're given is an empty snowy forest that's easy to get lost in, doesn't tell a story of its own (because it's a natural thing, duh), and so the important spots have to be signposted somehow. Cue the constrained paths and a flying light (hello, Everybody's Gone to the Rapture) designed to walk the player through the story - so the lovely snowy forest is no longer there for us to explore, but is something for us to 'W' our way through praying to all gods that the Shift key will make the pauses between the story bits at least a little bit shorter.
I guess what I'm saying is that I feel like this lovely environment is wasted on this kind of game. ;(

That's a good point! I like your way of thinking. =)
