i thought id finally write a review for this game. this may single handedly be my favourite game probably ever? this game has been an art inspiration for me for years now. i never knew when i played this originally that id get a story about mental health and your personal struggles and inner monologues, paired with stunning visuals along. and alongside this, theres hilarious melancholy, bitter sweet characters and games that give the player a bombardment of emotions. the way its all presented is insane - the voices, the audio, the visuals - it feels like a sensory overload. but like, a super cool one. its such a fucking beautiful game, i sometimes open it up just to chill on some of the screens with the music, or read some of the various poems/diary entries whenever i need a familiar place to immerse myself in. so much of this game has influenced my art, its hard to put into words how much this game has helped me. nathalie lawhead, sorry it took 6 years to get this message out lol. please please PLEASE continue to make beautiful works of art such as this, absolutely all of your work is stunning.
thank you!!! 😭 omg i cannot express how much this means to hear, especially rn the timing is a blessing. hearing things like this encourages me to keep going. making this type of art is what i love doing the most out of life and all i want to do. i hope for the new thing i am working on to hold up and be as meaningful as this.
it was hard to work on it. making art that is “different” is scary, but knowing people like you exist out there that love it like this makes it absolutely worth it. thank you!! 😭🙏🥰
I played this around 2019/2020, and since then, it's been one of my favourite things ever. I wont ever get tired of telling everyone that this is truly art.
This "game" really gave me a lot of feelings and it's amazing. Thanks for making this!
Thank you very much for what felt like a very personal and deeply moving experience. It was emblematic, as it seems to me, to the voice though which the realty of the modern world can be expressed, indeed - should be expressed. Especially so for people who are not privileged and/or non-normative. It is painful to me that the community of people who enjoy video games to which I belong is so toxic and continues to be so harmful to beautiful artistic voices such as yourself. A sad, sad state of affairs that we are in that those things can happen.
Oh wow! What an experience! Sensory overload. Really sad at parts but also very funny. We both enjoyed this experience. We did not finish it all but we will get back to it. A lot is going on in this one.
This really was a whole Experience! I had no idea what to expect from one page to the next but always left with something to think about. Your poetry and prose writing is so evocative, too. A lot of this really hit home for me and I'll be thinking about this piece of art for a good, long while.
this game... really is something else. I expected some cryptic horror windows xp aesthetic game.. but this game just, it came to me. Like, its like all of my thoughts were spread out on a screen for me to see. I feel exactly how you feel. this is an experience that is unforgivable, thank you.
Played it super regularly a few years ago, Now that I'm getting back to Itch.io, I wanna say I loved it! Awesome visuals and I think this had a big impact on my love for art a few years back ;)
This is amazing, and I didn't expect it to hit so close to home. It's so cool to see artistic intent poured into every facet of an experience like this.
