Little Girl On Earth Asking Why She Asking Why

Not as deep as it wants to be - or at least it doesn't have the time to. Would have benefitted a lot from more time in the writing phase, and doing more with less words. I love the presentation, and exploring how videogame characters feel both when they leave the bounds of reality and when they are operating the same routine (and what of that can translate to the human condition) is cool and all, but it seriously lacks the time and pacing needed to properly explore any part of that beyond surface level. I know the themes I mentioned are not the only ones, those are just the ones I thought weren't immediately obvious. But yeah, my main criticism is that it needs to pace itself better, but probably not with more of the same. Introduce one theme at a time, while giving the player time to reflect on it. Don't overplay the "existence is scary" card too much, that gets repetitive really fast, and the game is not short enough to end before that. Umi is also way too insightful to be believable. The bad ending is chosen with a dialogue choice that sounds innocent enough at first (the player could have just forgotten an important part of the story) but the player character takes an uncharacteristic turn for the monstrous, which will surprise anyone who didn't predict it was meant as a way of being cruel to her. I like what LGoEAWSAW has in concept, and I like the style, but again, it needed some more time in the drawing board. I will be checking out future work by this developer to see if it improves.
