A person with red hair and wearing a brown leather jacket with fur is firing a strange machine that is emanating a blue laser. Other characters can be seen from the game which are set to a tropical island background.

Included quote:

"In the end, Lou's Lagoon feels like a game that didn't quite match its initial promise. It plays beautifully and looks amazing, but awkward pacing, way too much waiting around, fetch quests that feel like padding out the game, and those storage issues hold the game back."
