It really is quite something -- atmosphere in spades with some genuinely great music. The demo is kind of an anti-demo in that it shows off the game's engine without actually being part of the main plot of the game, and is interesting in its own right.

I actually wrote up a review of the first episode a while back, lemme dig it up.

Here:

"I remember when I was growing up, Cincinnati was a lot quieter than it is now, and visiting my grandparents, on a street with no lights and the neighbors went to bed early, darkness seemed to swallow everything up, even sound. Kentucky Route Zero really evokes that feeling -- darkness falls quick in the opening minutes of Act I, and there's very little in the way of civilization. I'm no stranger to rural Kentucky and Ohio -- in the summer they're almost otherworldly, which is captured perfectly in this game, along with that eerie feeling of isolation where the whole world disappears.

The music is fantastic, being sort of a mix of ambient with a little bluegrass. I really like the art style, too -- it's similar to that strange, late-50s early-60s Americana style you sometimes saw in animation and advertisements from the period. And I'm a huge sucker for that stuff, which is why I loved the art direction of Fallout New Vegas so much because a lot of it edged away from the traditional 1950s style into early 60s.

I can't wait for episode 2."

I just listened to one of the songs from the game (The Stars Drop Away (Equus Oils)). It really is quite gorgeous music!

I just listened to that too! It's something else, isn't it? I could listen to it for hours.

I love ambient style music. That is why I listen to http://youarelistening.to/denver all the time.

It is amazing how the ambient music and the police scanners combine into great background noise. :)

I actually had a similar idea for this sort of stuff a while back.

OMG what was up with the Simpsons clip at the end? That was so weird. :P

Part of the running gag of that album -- every song had some clip from the Simpsons or whatever.
