This game, my sister and I played it for a bit together. We thought it was cheerful and just plain weird [and we like that] but as we delved deeper... The game became more meaning, but the weirdness stayed. She'd gone out and left me alone with this game. So I click every chapter; in order. I read ever piece of dialogue, and saved everything I could.
Thank you, truly. This game put a lot of things into perspective and gives that same perspective atmosphere to those not familiar.
Absolutely loved it even though it felt very overwhelming to me. I've been suffering from chronic pain for the last year and a lot of what's in the game made it a very introspective experience about how I deal with my issues. I highly recommend it and I wish I could tip more.
I really don't know how to put my feelings about this zine into words, and then choose which of those words I want to convey to its creator, and prospective fans reading the comments.
So here's a small piece of my thoughts that I could muster up at least:
This was important to me some months ago, before the missing pages were added, and then the missing pages were important to me today.
Also, Minibyte intrigues me a lot, spent a lot of time sending help requests.
love all of your releases. they're such a fresh breath of creativity. keep it up plz. thank u also plz add a skeleton warning, some of us have allergies. <3
after seeing your stuff in rockpapershotgun i have been meaning to try it
though i had already tried FROGGY and let me tell you that was quite an experience
though i did end uo conquering armaggeddon highway, hehe
also i think this kinda helped me find a whole new aesttethic i want to try when i get a new drawing tablet, as someone who draws, this is very important
also naminig the pink friend Floyd gave me quite a chuckle, hehe
ok, jokes aside, thanks for this
i used to think being pragmatic about grieving and feeling overall bad was good (in the "no time to feel bad, let's try to just feel good instead or fake it or something" way of thinking) and you kinda made me change my mind
i hope i can help people from now on with this new way of seeing things
I reviewed 2 games in this video. The second one is "Everything Is Going to Be Ok". At this particular point in my life, this game was just a little too heavy to digest. However, this is one of the most creative games that I have ever had the opportunity of playing. I loved every aspect of this game (Including all the easter eggs I found)! I hope that you continue to create games like this one. You are truly talented!
My bad. I understand your issue with titles and never meant to offend anyone by slapping a label on your creativity. Please continue to create content!
i love this game so much!!! it has totally my type of aesthetic and i can relate to a lot of the things in this game. the art style is also adorable!! this game is def one of my faves now
Part of me thinks the author used a lot of CSS animations? I know you can specify a pattern of points and their durations. I'm not sure how complicated it is to compose though!
you have to email them and ask them to enable custom css... then it's all just a bunch of css animations or however you customize the page. i haven't checked if they have an official place that tells you about all the different page elements/classes but you can just use the dev toolbar to go through the page and find the names to all the id's and classes (it's super basic, just plain simple css, nothing fancy). the fire is actually the header set to the bottom of the page with the index changed... just stuff like that. also lol i found out that you can keep uploading images through the background image upload, and save the url to those images, and then use those images in the css (don't have to keep them as a background, just use that part as a way of uploading more images to use in your css)... at least that seems to work.
thank you!! :D the files for the music are included in the MISC > OST > DIY folder when you download the game. There are extras in the MISC folder and audio is one of them... tho most all of the audio is procedurally assembled so that's why it's in a DIY folder, unless there are better ways of releasing soundtracks that are procedural.
I think this is a great game, but I've got to ask. Are you OK? Well maybe not OK OK, but...
I mean... some of these are... I mean... they must come from a lot of pain, and the part that worries me the most is that they paint friendship in a very negative light...
To be honest, in a way the make me feel like I am a terrible friend for offering moral support... but I don't know what else to do, and some times, there is nothing that can be done. I really want to help them, but I can't.
Like I said, I really like that this game makes me ask myself this questions, it is really on point. But being such a personal game I kind of have to ask, Are you OK? Please don’t dismiss friendship, it can help, even if you don't realize it at first, it really helps.
Enough people have asked that I am going to put it under serious consideration. I can't promise anything tho because I know 0 about linux and only have a general idea of what that would entail. Thank you for asking! I love that there are so many linux people out there that it would get asked this often. :)
Do you think you could work on making a mobile version? Because I really want to play this game for myself, but I don't own a computer. (Technically I do, but it's been broken for a while and is unusable.)
mobile version has come up a lot, and while making it i did design around mobile (on the basic level) so it would be easy to port. it would not be very hard for me to do, but i know that the guidelines for the mobile stores would very likely not allow this "game". it's breaking too many of their rules. especially the use of old computer UI's. i would have to aesthetically change too much, so i'm very skeptical if this would even be allowed on. i would love to tho, but i have not had much luck with putting my stuff on the App Store (or Google Play).
i got a problem with downloading this. i tried from the itch.io website and app both< several times< have no idea what the promblem is? idk but i would love to play it< looks great
i just tried downloading it myself and it worked fine (I'm on a Mac tho). i'll try it on my PC but it seems to work. if it still fails you can try it from GameJolt: https://gamejolt.com/games/ok/263066
it was a little unsettling at first, but i quickly fell in love and it made me feel emotional remembering things that happened in the past, but i got a lot out of this! it definitely isn't for everyone, but it definitely surprised me with how fun it is to read through everything and still feel warm <3

[edit; replace 'game' with 'zine']
Thank you for the kind words, and I'm touched that you really got into it. This means a lot. I'm happy that you found it meaningful. ♡
MY EYES
I really, really love this game. I've played it twice already, and it puts a new perspective on how to think.
Absolutely loved it even though it felt very overwhelming to me. I've been suffering from chronic pain for the last year and a lot of what's in the game made it a very introspective experience about how I deal with my issues. I highly recommend it and I wish I could tip more.
Thank you that means a lot, take care!! ♡♡♡♡
this is surprisingly survivable considering the amount of people who didnt make it here but also read THE ENTIRE THING

Hi, this was a really good zine, i love it
I reviewed 2 games in this video. The second one is "Everything Is Going to Be Ok". At this particular point in my life, this game was just a little too heavy to digest. However, this is one of the most creative games that I have ever had the opportunity of playing. I loved every aspect of this game (Including all the easter eggs I found)!

PSA: This game literally broke my video capture!
My bad. I understand your issue with titles and never meant to offend anyone by slapping a label on your creativity. Please continue to create content!
lol thank you for playing and making a video! have a nice day. ♡
do you want your spoonky game to get attention? just throw it into a blender and piss on it! it will be so original and edgy that it's corrupted!
Sorry
i love this game so much!!! it has totally my type of aesthetic and i can relate to a lot of the things in this game. the art style is also adorable!! this game is def one of my faves now
oh no i just read the description and im very sorry for calling this a game!! i really meant to say zine!
aah ☺️ thank you! so happy you like it! ❤️
We need more !!!!
We need more !!!!
Thank you for making this. We need more art that vocalises pain.
❤️!
first of, this itch site looks awesome :D
hey can i know how you customized your itch.io page like that?
Part of me thinks the author used a lot of CSS animations? I know you can specify a pattern of points and their durations. I'm not sure how complicated it is to compose though!
ok thx
you have to email them and ask them to enable custom css... then it's all just a bunch of css animations or however you customize the page. i haven't checked if they have an official place that tells you about all the different page elements/classes but you can just use the dev toolbar to go through the page and find the names to all the id's and classes (it's super basic, just plain simple css, nothing fancy). the fire is actually the header set to the bottom of the page with the index changed... just stuff like that. also lol i found out that you can keep uploading images through the background image upload, and save the url to those images, and then use those images in the css (don't have to keep them as a background, just use that part as a way of uploading more images to use in your css)... at least that seems to work.
This game is so disturbing, I think I was brainwashed.
send help
This is the single most fucked up game I ever played. I tuinkn I'm in love.
I quit out, around "level" 10; did I lose any progress, or is there no need to redo what I've done so far?
there is no progress saving, it doesn't matter
Hello guys i'm an italian youtuber and this is my video about this game, i love it! good job :3
thank you! happy you liked it ❤️
Have you guys considered releasing a full sound track? :0
i really love the style <3
thank you!! :D
the files for the music are included in the MISC > OST > DIY folder when you download the game. There are extras in the MISC folder and audio is one of them...
tho most all of the audio is procedurally assembled so that's why it's in a DIY folder, unless there are better ways of releasing soundtracks that are procedural.
Oh okay!
thanks! <33
I mean... some of these are... I mean... they must come from a lot of pain, and the part that worries me the most is that they paint friendship in a very negative light...To be honest, in a way the make me feel like I am a terrible friend for offering moral support... but I don't know what else to do, and some times, there is nothing that can be done.

I hope I'm not being to weird.
Ok, I've just realized that I sound like the blue text in Page 2... I'm sorry I just don't know how to react.
❤️
I think this have not been asked before, sorry if so. Any plans on releasing a linux version?
Enough people have asked that I am going to put it under serious consideration. I can't promise anything tho because I know 0 about linux and only have a general idea of what that would entail. Thank you for asking!
I love that there are so many linux people out there that it would get asked this often. :)

it's breaking too many of their rules. especially the use of old computer UI's.
i would have to aesthetically change too much, so i'm very skeptical if this would even be allowed on.
i would love to tho, but i have not had much luck with putting my stuff on the App Store (or Google Play).
Oh, okay then. I hope you have good luck with future updates!
i got a problem with downloading this. i tried from the itch.io website and app both< several times< have no idea what the promblem is? idk but i would love to play it< looks great
i just tried downloading it myself and it worked fine (I'm on a Mac tho).
i'll try it on my PC but it seems to work.
if it still fails you can try it from GameJolt: https://gamejolt.com/games/ok/263066
it worked on my seventh try :) this zine resonated with me alot. tooo much for comfort. but it was fun. ill be sure to replay this again.
gonna cry myself to sleep tho
but honestly thank you. this is great. i gotta go and print out the lil poatato guy tommorow
it was a little unsettling at first, but i quickly fell in love and it made me feel emotional remembering things that happened in the past, but i got a lot out of this! it definitely isn't for everyone, but it definitely surprised me with how fun it is to read through everything and still feel warm <3
Thank you! Happy you liked it! 💕
THIS IS SO GOOD. I feel like I have found a kindred spirit. I will re-evaluate my donation price :)
