An artful game, a game full of art. A literary story presented at what feels like the perfect halfway point between a comic and a movie. Take a good long look.
It's rare to find something so intensely authentic. Seeped in mundane angst. The beauty and horror of routine. Two merging into one. A yearning closer than words can describe. This story embodies a deep part of my psyche I rarely see explored in media. It's beautifully poetic and hauntingly human. The story is only a few hours long and free. Play it.
it's somehow always the ♥♥♥♥♥♥-up girl with glasses that makes me go "whoa, that's literally me."
beautiful, heartwarming, melancholic, and nostalgic. well worth the two hours I spent enjoying it

Incredibly raw and moving, someone's soul printed onto screen. 10/10 experience.
It’s a free download and a short linear visual novel so I recommend it based on giving it a shot. Did I find it exceptionally profound or interesting? Not really. But as you can see from the mostly positive reviews, it definitely will resonate with some people. It’s pretty obvious the target audiences are melancholic teens and early twenty-somethings in college. But I’m a woman in her early thirties and while I did read it through to completion, I found myself getting bored about halfway through. Not for me, but I don’t regret giving it a chance.
