The pills in Pandorium don't just make the screen go wavy. They change the actual click targets. I spent like ten minutes trying to figure out why my cursor kept slipping off what should've been the obvious interaction point, turns out the whole interface gets slightly drunk when you're dosed. That's the kind of jank that feels intentional, or maybe it's just Costello not giving a single fuck about polish, and honestly both explanations work.

The pimp character has this walk cycle where his shoulders don't move but his legs glide across the pavement like he's on a conveyor belt. Reminds me of those old Newgrounds flashes where the artist clearly learned anatomy from other flashes and never looked at a real human. The sex minigame is basically a rhythm thing but the beatmap seems completely divorced from the music, which is just some looping alien synth drone that made me check if another tab was playing audio. You're supposed to match thrusts to some visual cue that keeps getting obscured by the daze effect. I never figured out the timing and I don't think you're meant to.

The gangbanged scene unlocks after you fail the negotiation with the prostitute three times, which the game never tells you. I only found it because I got frustrated and started clicking randomly. The alien shows up without any real buildup, just suddenly there's this thing with too many joints and the sprite work gets weirdly detailed for about four frames before going back to the usual rough style. Costello always does this, hides the good stuff behind failure states that nobody would naturally trigger unless they're as stubborn as I am. The whole thing runs in browser and my work laptop's fan didn't even kick on, so at least the optimization is solid even if nothing else is.
