An android is led through a vast structure by a glitch in his visual system. Lorn's Lure is an atmospheric narrative first-person platformer with novel climbing mechanics and modernized retro 3D graphics.
I really wanted to love this game. I still have the alpha version of this and replay it occassionally. It seemed to promise an exploration game, where I could get places however I wanted.

If you like challenge, go for it....
