"Banshees" was an interesting but puzzling film. I enjoyed it but I didn't think it was quite as approachable as McDonaghs other films.

I suppose it's supposed to be an allegory to the futility of the Irish Civil War? If we the audience can't make a connection to something like that it feels a bit too abstract.

I didn't make it far into the game, but it is a neat project.

Love the art style, but I think you might need some sort of intro for the controls. Neither WASD nor arrow keys seem to have any effect, and the player seems to make random turns regardless of what key I have pressed, or whether I have any key pressed at all.

It’s an allegory for something, but I can’t quite put my finger on it…
