Oneshot Guide

You wake to find yourself in a strange place. This bed is not your own; you've never even seen this house before. The small room is empty save for an old computer, desk and bookshelf. Warm light filters in through a foggy window, bathing everything in a pinkish hue. The clean hardwood floor is partly covered by a soft looking purple carpet. This place is beautiful, but unsettling. And this is the first view you'll have of the breathtaking world of.

Made for the 2014 Indie Game Maker contest and downloadable free for PC, Mac and Linux, Oneshot is a which plays only in windowed mode, and yes, there is a reason for that. No, it's not a room escape, though the game's first few minutes would certainly have you believe so.

It's not a horror game, but it is certainly atmospheric and has a few untraditionally 'creepy' moments. The game's co-developers, and, describe the experience as a mission to 'guide a lost child through a strange world, utilizing items, characters, and the environment to progress.' That could describe most any adventure game. With such an intentionally vague description, it is difficult for any player to have any idea what this game is really about—and that's the point. This is a game about exploration and mystery, the kind of experience you're meant to have with as little prior knowledge as possible. Don't even read any comments before you start, or it will be spoiled for you. All the information you need is the controls: move your character with the arrow keys, perform actions and use items with Z or spacebar, and use X to open the menu.

Now go play it. Oh, one last thing: put some time aside, because once you begin, you can't stop playing it for at least a little while. Luckily, this reviewer's hardware is sturdy enough that I was able to see everything through to the end, but other players have told horror stories of computers shutting off mid-game and losing everything. There are three moments throughout the game where you can save and quit safely, and you'll know them when you find them, but that's it.

Still reading, eh? Alright, dear readers, but never let it be said that you were not warned.

Oneshot follows the story of a little cutie named Niko, a small but brave boy with cat whiskers and glowing, bright yellow eyes. Niko's been transported to a strange world without a sun, one that is falling apart, and he is the one who is destined to save it. However, it's not just Niko's story, but yours too. You are the god of this world, and its inhabitants need your help. This revelation comes early on in the game, but it changes the entire dynamic of the experience.

Suddenly, this is not simply a silly, fun game you are choosing to play, but a responsibility to help save this world and return Niko to his home. The gravity of the situation intensifies upon realizing what the title of the game means.

You really do only get one shot. If you give up and quit the game early, or even if you accidentally close the window, Niko dies and you can't continue.

Ever.The notion of such permanence, the idea that the game can only be played once, has been, but not like this. Oneshot is as original and powerful as they come. The art is gorgeous, resplendent with vivid glowing hues. The puzzles are well thought out, tricky, but far from impossible.

Above all, the dialogue is great and the characters are lovable. It is impressive how easy it is to fall in love with the characters and the world of Oneshot in so short a time. The game is not flawless—its first major section, the Barrens, are the longest and most frustrating part of the game to navigate.

The later sections are somewhat easier, but feel rather shorter too. The item system is also rather unwieldy, with no way to cycle through your inventory besides opening and closing the menu half a dozen times. Still, despite the risks and surprises that Oneshot holds, it is a beautiful, polished experience that you should not miss. Be warned that once you reach the end, you will have to live with your choices afterwards, as I have. This is your journey, and there's no turning back.Windows:Get theMac OS X:Get theLinux:Get the. Apparently there are 4 or more endings:I got the ending where I didn't use the plant, nor the miracle grow, then I went to the spire and chose to help the world.I suppose there is an ending where you plant and help the world, one where you plant and use miracle grow and help the world, one where you don't plant and help niko, one where you plant and help niko, and one where you plant use miracle grow and help niko.In mine, there's a growing light, and then there are images of characters of the world looking at the light from the spire. Then there's the menu of the game with start and quit, but the image in the back of the menu is now just white, and when you start, you are in the room again where niko started, but there's no niko, and there's a lot of light in the window, and you can't do anything else, as there's no niko to control.If anyone else got a different ending, I'd like to know how it goes.
