Interstate 35

It feels like We Know The Devil meets Norco. A really good short visual novel with beautiful writing and evocative art, and the soundtrack is excellent.

Intense and colorful, with atmosphere built through stark hot strokes of paint. The 'mental inventory' is really just so cool. Reminds me of Disco Elysium with its metaphysical, evocative writing. A powerful way to spend an hour or two reading (but it's worth at least one replay!) I wasn't able to select some prompts with controller but mouse works fine and controller worked great otherwise. Hopefully fixed soon. Also, there's no text log, so be careful with speeding through too fast. Highly recommended, especially as someone who grew up in Texas.

As someone who's not super into VNs, I found this to be pretty interesting. The art style is really compelling, the poetic writing is fascinating, and the overall narrative is quite existential and interesting. A couple of neat surprises are in this story. Great experience.

I feel a lot of different emotions after finishing Interstate 35. I don't know if I want to replay it so soon, even though it was so short. But I did love it. I'm trying to imagine what memories of mine I would keep. I'm happy to have grown up in North Texas, even if it wasn't anywhere near where I was born. I always think of myself as lucky for getting the chance to experience life here and meet the people that I have met. I know these roads, I know the layouts of a few of the cities, and I know all of the same buildings that just keep repeating and repeating. I still forget how vast this place is, most of this state is still so unknowable to me. I never was in a religious family. I knew transgender and queer individuals who grew up in those kinds of houses; there was a certain pain in the air that followed them around. It was hard to say anything about it. I've been transitioning for almost 3 years now. I still love this place even if I sometimes desperately wish it could change. There's a lot of items and memories that I wish I could bury deep here, but there are plenty of things that I want to keep close, to remember all of this by. Thank you Julie.

Made me stare at the ceiling for a while

I grew up just south of Waco and went to college in the DFW area for four years so this game felt like I was coming home a little bit too. The prose was haunting and got stuck in my chest. I loved the way memories became scavenged pieces of the apocalypse. The art also was stunning. I loved playing this and I'm so glad I did

两个半小时。回家的故事，我从中了解到受洗分三个阶段。出于好奇，也知晓了现实中韦科的烈火。 后启示录，州际35号公路，把回忆装进背包应该受到了《肯塔基零号公路》的影响。 大概可以和土星之子《Sons of Saturn》（试玩部分）形成某种对照：一群拾荒者，去废弃的城市韦科或密涅瓦，找出妈妈的下落或信物。[spoiler]也许是道出那声酝酿已久却此情此景方才成形的再见？[/spoiler]

none of this is relatable and yet I found it extremely compelling. thank you.

Very evocatively written, dealing with questions of faith and community after the end, and the universal pain of coming home after a long absence, and all the memories that dredges up. Love the art and audio, really hope we get to see more from this dev team.

Two hours of haunting story, great musics and beautiful writing! Highly recommended.
