ohh that sounds right up my alley. I saw it's only a few bucks on steam, but the port sounds pretty bad. Do you have any recommendations for the best way to play on PC? One thing that comes to mind is emulating the 360 version, but I'm not enough of a gamer to know how that works or if that would be better lol
It's definitely possible to get the PC game running with some patience.

PCGW has a good page on most of the PC version's critical issues and candidate fixes, and as you can probably see, there are quite a few. Getting it running in the first place was the hardest part for me. Once you get it running, just refer to the wiki now and then to watch for problematic points in the game and how to best avoid crashes.
As for emulation, I have no idea. I do know that the console versions are supposed to be quite messy themselves, though, so I would guess it won't be a much better experience.
It’s on Switch if you have one
