Contraindication

A nice smol indie game. With intriguing art and atmospheric sound. I'm really impressive when i know this was made in 11 days. Very short though, and choice does not affect the outcome

Very Striking visuals, i really want to see more!

[h1] How far are you willing to go as you try to change your past? [/h1] Contraindication, despite being a short visual novel, certainly manages to catch your attention right off the bat. As you start the game, you immediately notice its symbolic visuals and ominous, unsettling background music, all of which leaves you feeling uneasy and curious to know more. With this intriguing setup, the game presents itself through vibrant colors and unique art style as you follow the story of Reimah, a girl tormented by grief and loss who decides to tirelessly dedicate countless days trying to avert the tragedy that has shaped her life. This can be interpreted as her response to a traumatic event in which she felt helpless, leading her to seek a way to prevent such suffering from occurring again. She hopes for change and for a resolution to what has become her life's purpose. Except, events that happened far in the past can't be altered anymore... or can they? https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3738221030 If you are interested in the art style or wondering whether the story has any foundation at all, I would definitely recommend this game. Not only does it avoid ending on an abrupt and anticlimactic cliffhanger, it also servers as an entrée to experiences yet to come, making you wish that everything lasted a bit longer.

It was pretty short but i quite liked the artstyle and the colors. The story too was quite intriguing

"Made in 11 days for the RPGMaker 2025 Gamejam." So yeah, there's not much to say here. You explore a few scenes, the story takes a twist, there's a fairly basic minigame that I guess in theory tests your anatomy knowledge but uses a picture so stylised it ends up being half guessing, then there's a smaller explorable scene, one final bit of narration... [i]and it ends[/i]. Don't get me wrong, the atmosphere is good and the exploration of the first few scenes is rather comprehensive (there's a couple things I hoped would have a description, but this only happened because of the tone the game had set before). For the most part, it's a "less is more" story, with the gaps being left to player's imagination; the counterpart is an exposition heavy part of the plot in the back half. Cool art, and I guess good enough atmospheric music. Finally, there's a point in the midgame climax where you're given a choice, which actually doesn't impact the rest of the game at all. Again, this is easily forgiven for being a game done in so little time, just a slight post-game disappointment.

Неплохая, короткая но очень интересно написана. Особенно порадовал визуал. Great work!

impressive for what it is, i enjoyed it :)
