Control, I'm Not Coming Back

I cried so bad it didn't tell me anything I didn't know but it was generational to hear it from someone else and know you're not alone I've been instilled with so much hope I don't even know what to do I wouldn't change a thing about the pacing, visuals were perfect, sound design was amazing got stuck on the dialogue options a bit because once you click while on the dialogue page then the arrows stop working to switch dialogue options, thought it was a little confusing but I'm also not the brightest tool in the shed

This game killed my wife, 10/10

Truly a beautiful game

Genuinely had me tearing up. The message behind it is so beautiful and carries so much meaning no matter who you are. There is such a unique and comforting feeling to the game that is unmatched anywhere else, I would have 100% paid for the game but I am glad its free. 10/10 would recommend.

i want to start with credits to the developers (and you should definitely play this game especially because its free) because i did geninuely enjoy this game, i loved the art and the character designs and voyager and they're all quite fun and everything is fantastic to look at, and the writing is pretty alright for what it is, but i have to be a bit of a complainer here maybe i dont get the idea of this game and maybe im not in a dark enough place to truly get it (but id say im doing pretty ♥♥♥♥♥♥ right now), but i feel like this game is definitely beautiful but underbaked, i do not feel like the 'grow roots' route has any meaning at all or any real difference from the main game's clear intention for you to go on the moving forward path, and most of the time its just a simple walking simulator where you pick dialogue options that don't really matter all that much? i feel like if youre going to offer branching paths, there should be more drastic changes than just two scenes/warps/worlds whatever you'd call it here. theres just not enough variation in my opinion, of course that might've made the playtime double but like. i honestly would not mind that! i want more! i want more exploration of the concept and digging deeper into it! get into the ROOT of things yakno speaking of warps/worlds/whatever they're called i kind of dont like that you can just sit through the musical sequences and youll get automatically teleported to other areas. i guess thats to keep the beats bumping (which i dont mind because the music is good) and while i do love the syncing its just. a little awkward to me. also not necessarily a complaint but why can we jump lmao?? its kinda cute so idm but its funny also this is probably just because the game is short, but the insistence that voyager is your friend is kind of hard to believe (despite how much i adore space probes,. cough cough 17776), i love them nonetheless but i dont feel as close as i think i should be? and usually im more emotionally effected by games than this since im a total crybaby, but i only teared up about twice during this game and i kind of just. dont think its really saying anything that profound maybe i have a better relationship with my indomitable human spirit than most players or somethin idk it just feels like there';s something inherently missing to this game and im not sure what it is, like i look into it and its kind of shallow. i don't think i can in good conscious give this an thumbsup. but i also feel a bit bad giving it a thumbsdown. makes me wish we had a middle honestly. you still should play it though! you'd probably enjoy it more than i did. quick edit: i would kiss voyager 1 sloppy style

Such a short game but it hits so hard
