FOR GOD'S SAKE, HELP HIM! is a tiny, surreal first-person art "game" about what it's like. your goal is singular and simple: try to help him, however you can... if you can. that's a tall order considering you're both in a blank void and he's being crushed over and over.

About
FOR GOD'S SAKE, HELP HIM! is a tiny, surreal first-person art "game" about what it's like. your goal is singular and simple: try to help him, however you can. if you can.
in this blank, reverberant void, the only things around are you, him, and giant objects periodically falling out of the sky and crushing him. simply put, he needs help.
for a few minutes, you can step in and help him. no, seriously -- it will probably only be a few minutes of playtime.
walk around and explore the void if you'd like. interact with whatever you can. maybe you'll find something out there that can help, but wander too far and you'll wrap back around to where you started. surely, somewhere in this space, you can find a quick and easy solution to get him out of this predicament for good, and we'll all live happily ever after?
only one level, only one objective, only one ending.
the game exclusively revolves around helping him. there is nothing else. there's a reason the game's free.

Jeez, it's almost like he WANTS to be crushed
Wow, this is some sick sh*t! I love the overall message! Artistic qualities aside, I have no idea why the game has to run at like 700 FPS, which puts completely unnecessary load on my GPU, and for some reason even the NVIDIA Control Panel won't allow me to put the game's .exe in it so that I could cap the frame rate. Why? Can't the game be more helpful? For God's sake, I need help!!!
Quote the friend ive been live spamming the lines and premise to, to share the game experience: "It IS that good" terrible experience 10/10 this is important

A very short interactive allegory. Free. Wouldn't hurt to give it a try.
Despite the game looks strange, random and surreal and is pretty much very unaesthetic in its facettes, it kinda should be recommended because: - it's free - it took me 15 minutes to make all achievements = it is basically a free perfect game in your library - The attempts to "help" the "guy" are basically only certain voice lines, which are typical sentences you hear in daily life very often, when people want to "help" other people. It made me think about the charade, which some people do in daily life... when pretending to help or trying to help. Most of the time, the only effort of people is in deed these voice lines, which are not actually helpful. This gives the game a surprisingly deep element. Apart from that, there is no reason to ever play it again after one session. ---{ Graphics }--- ☐ You forget what reality is ☐ Beautiful ☐ Good ☑ Decent ☐ Bad ☐ Don‘t look too long at it ☐ MS-DOS ---{ Gameplay }--- ☐ Very good ☐ Good ☐ It's just gameplay ☐ Mehh ☑ Watch paint dry instead ☐ Just don't ---{ Audio }--- ☐ Eargasm ☐ Very good ☐ Good ☑ Not too bad ☐ Bad ☐ I'm now deaf ---{ Audience }--- ☑ Kids ☑ Teens ☑ Adults ☑ Grandma ---{ PC Requirements }--- ☐ Check if you can run paint ☑ Potato ☐ Decent ☐ Fast ☐ Rich boi ☐ Ask NASA if they have a spare computer ---{ Game Size }--- ☐ Floppy Disk ☑ Old Fashioned ☐ Workable ☐ Big ☐ Will eat 10% of your 1TB hard drive ☐ You will want an entire hard drive to hold it ☐ You will need to invest in a black hole to hold all the data ---{ Difficulty }--- ☑ Just press 'W' ☐ Easy ☐ Easy to learn / Hard to master ☐ Significant brain usage ☐ Difficult ☐ Dark Souls ---{ Grind }--- ☑ Nothing to grind ☐ Only if u care about leaderboards/ranks ☐ Isn't necessary to progress ☐ Average grind level ☐ Too much grind ☐ You'll need a second life for grinding ---{ Story }--- ☑ No Story ☐ Some lore ☐ Average ☐ Good ☐ Lovely ☐ It'll replace your life ---{ Game Time }--- ☑ Long enough for a cup of coffee ☐ Short ☐ Average ☐ Long ☐ To infinity and beyond ---{ Price }--- ☑ It's free! ☐ Worth the price ☐ If it's on sale ☐ If u have some spare money left ☐ Not recommended ☐ You could also just burn your money ---{ Bugs }--- ☑ Never heard of ☐ Minor bugs ☐ Can get annoying ☐ ARK: Survival Evolved ☐ The game itself is a big terrarium for bugs ---{ ? / 10 }--- ☐ 1 ☑ 2 ☐ 3 ☐ 4 ☐ 5 ☐ 6 ☐ 7 ☐ 8 ☐ 9 ☐ 10 ☐ 11 would click again

我是个混蛋,所以你快去死吧 我是个尊重他人命运的人,所以你继续忍受吧 我是个S,看你这么享受你一定是个M吧 我是个善良的人,我不忍心再次打开游戏来看你的苦痛 我是个邪恶的人,所以我选择给这个游戏一个差评 好吧,以上这些人都不是我,因为我就是个玩游戏的普通人,游玩着,思考着,评论着,那么游戏结束,晚安各位~
[h1]Summary[/h1] Very short free experimental interactive experience than a game giving insight to what its like to help [b]Pros[/b] + Educational [h1]Overview[/h1] FOR GOD'S SAKE, HELP HIM! is a very short free experimental sort of interactive experience rather than a game, seeing as it is attempting to convey a message for you to understand and has very little actual gameplay elements. I would say it is a very interesting window into the kinds of interactions people in distress and those that are trying to help them. Showing just how unhelpful people could be as they don't really know how to properly help them, while at the same time thinking they're already doing so much. Concurrently we also see how the one needing help and making it quite obvious to us, does absolutely nothing themselves to change their predicament. Not to say it would be easy as difficulties in life can be numerous and complex, but here we see that there's just isn't any effort to do so. It's an interesting learning experience and might be a bit of an insight to some of your own past experiences. Achievements are very easy and self explanatory.

IT'S A METAPHOR!
