Дуже-дуже коротка (15-30 хвилин) безкоштовна гра, зроблена за 48 годин. Візуально сподобалася, але що саме (крім очевидного) автор хоче сказати та як - абсолютно ні. Най би це був просто коротенький платформер без спроби в сюжет - ок, але спроба в сюжет руйнує увесь досвід, бо крім того, що в ГГ проблеми з психікою й не лише з нею, не показали нічого. Таке шось, мінусувати не хочу саме через візуал та ігролад, най буде.
A pretty good little narrative themed around [b]"Roots"[/b], with some puzzles, a simple but neat artstyle and a heavier story than I expected. Pretty good job from the dev, keep up the good work! P.S.: To explain the dev's comment on this review, it used to be negative due to a bad softlock. But I've change it to positive since the dev quickly fixed it, and I enjoyed the rest of the game :D

Great game not long but long enough to understand the story serious concept and just a great feeling of helping a guy out with his problems. Definitely would recommend this game if you suffer or someone you know has suffered with depression and alcoholism
10\10 amazing, short but sweet. keep it up. this game is amazing. and on top of the story and little characters, way mental health is talked about is cool, and the puzzles where very unique.
I'd like to play a full game version. Keep doing
The moral of the story is ♥♥♥♥ you if you suffer from alcoholism or substance abuse. Brave message that needed to be said. Unfortunately there is forced stealth and artificial difficulty. 3/30
Onun dünyasının derinliklerine inerek, psikotik depresyonla mücadele eden bir adamın halüsinasyonları olarak oynuyorsunuz. Alkolizmin karanlığında ve sevdiklerini kaybetme korkusunda bulmacalar çözerek bu adamın hayatını yeniden bir araya getirmek sizin elinizde!
A great game which combines a touching story with quite deep themes with a fun and challenging platform mechanics. Well done for being able to create such a quality project in such a short amount of time!
a short story platformer. its pretty good. i could definitely play something like this again.
"I know writers who use subtext, and they're all cowards." For a 48 game jam, it's not half bad. I wouldn't recommend it though, because of its MANY flaws. Without getting into spoilers, I like concept of the game with these characters exploring a man's psyche. But, the dialogue is pretty on the nose for me, it's just a [i] bit too much. [/i] The puzzles and platforming are pretty simple, with a few problems. There's an inconsistent puzzle mechanic with the large buttons which doesn't impact much. The bouncy mushrooms are the only mechanic that isn't explained and it's the hardest to understand (you need to hit jump to not get launched higher???). Lastly, this game has no sound or music, and two steam achievements which don't function.
