Nooo don't make me digest any more children!

Love this game lol

The animation is so smooth and it's so juicy. Really, it's not really a game, more and 'experience' or a "toy", but it's really nice.

EU CHEGUEI O JOGO É TÃO ESQUESITO QUE ANIDA BEM QUE É PAGO


So creative! Amazing job.

What is this game! Good Job

One of the weirdest game I've ever played. I didn't know what was happening the whole time but I just enjoyed the ride. Not sure if there's an underlying message to the game but it was really interesting game.

The more I played, the more I wondered, "What is happening?" Then, this question ceased to exist the moment I reached the conclusion of this experience. Not because I received answers, but because the gaming experience was so intensely beautiful that I no longer cared about finding a sense or perhaps a hidden meaning.

It's for games and experiences like these that I love the world of indie gaming. It's precisely these experiences that make 15/30 minutes of your life interesting and vivid.

I know I might sound exaggerated, but I truly appreciated the experience. I will definitely play more of your games.

You should work for free

Can you provide an Android APK directly to itch that doesn’t require Google Play Services? I specifically buy games from itch.io to avoid that.

(+6)

what

(1 edit) (+2)

you should make this run on play.date

(+1)

How though? No mouse or touchscreen

(+4)

i dont know what just happened but it was cool

(+2)

Amazing. Just... amazing. This game does not pull its punches (and as a very lonely kid turned misanthropic teenager turned barely functional adult, it hit me even harder).

Advice: play the game, then go to the website to enjoy the short movie that adds very interesting scenes.

(+2)

You like a nice history? something that keeps you on and amazed? get this game, its an impossible regret, oh and VERY IMPORTANT! do not see spoilers, see this your our own eyes! it is worth every effort the Dev team has put into it.

Awsome work

(+1)(-1)

Ahhh, the joys of fatherhood. ;{)

Amazing that I recognize this because it's been used as a meme format (usually captioned as "I play Destiny 2/League of Legends" stuff lol)

(+1)(-19)

kinda funny but not worth money

(+13)

Nah, any game with the effort put into it (like this one) is worth the cash.

More of a take on human behaviour IMHO, but read what you will into it ;)
