The Dark Side of the Moon is a good effort from a first time developer, and an especially good effort considering how much of the work he did himself. I was looking forward to it for years, and it didn't disappoint. The characters were relatively complex for something that takes a couple of hours to play through, and the story was familiar yet satisfying enough. The gameplay was nothing extremely innovative; however, did what it was supposed to do really well, adding a layer of nostalgia to the title. Unfortunately, multiple technical issues (whether with the game itself or the mobile port) did somewhat dull the experience, as did some of the story's predictability.
