It's a cyberpunk Warcraft 3 custom scenario and it's shockingly good despite the jank.

Like tears in rain except the AI upscaling removed the rain.

I got tired of recommending this game and series in person so I'm recommending it here so I don't have to put in any additional effort shilling it.

Well, I downloaded this to waste time.

And I sure did.

It's hardly a game, but at least it works at being a little more inventive than most "experiences" out there. Use your directionals to navigate an environment that's not particularly hostile, but it sure does feel like it.
First of all for positives, it's free. You can find plenty of other things like this on the market that cost money, which is pretty ridiculous, having to spend money to burn six minutes of your time pondering the hard questions, like "I bet my character's feet hurt right now", "I wonder if I could've gotten more bang for my buck if I bought the painting instead" and "Doesn't the narrator have anything better to do with his time"
The Plan does a good job at addressing all of these; you have six feet and spend the majority of the game flying, breaking away from the usual fare in "walking simulator".
We've already addressed the price, but in terms of visual quality, it's a little above decent. The fly itself is little to write home about but the environment is quite nice and has an almost LIMBO-esque quality to it.
There's no narrator. No one to tell you that your navel is something to contemplate or that life is very hard or that it's really your fault your wife is dead and that God had nothing to do with it. You're just a fly, and you have to deal with fly problems. Like crashing into the sun.
The soundtrack is surprisingly well done, which consists of one song that stretches out over the whole six minutes. It aims to be like all indie game soundtracks and be more moving and emotional than it has any right to be, but it was condensed to one song and I can listen to it whenever I like, because it's free. So it manages to do better than most indie games on the market in that respect.

All in all, this interesting spin on the popular Frog Fractions series is worth playing for six minutes to completion, then uninstalling to be never touched again, which is more than I can say for most walking simulators and indie titles on the market.

I wrote this review to waste time.

And I sure did.

The point of the Icarus story isn't applicable to the animal kingdom/10
