Wow. Just wow.
My secret word was: Voice.
Out of the three tasks I was assigned to do, I'm choosing to do the list of 25 goals I hope to achieve in life, narrowing them down day by day. When I saw this, I immediately told myself, "I'm going to do this. This means something," especially considering I have many goals for myself in this life.
Also, I know you say you read every comment so I look forward to the moment when you read this. Thank you. I'm sure you've heard this many times already, but thank you. Seriously. I'm not even sure how to properly articulate how much all of your games mean to me (I just downloaded the bundle with all of your games so far and I fully intend on playing every single one of them). I am a writer, a dreamer, a lover, a fighter, so many things. And these games make me want to live my life to the fullest, prioritizing the things that make me think, learn, dream, and be happy.
Maybe it's silly, probably really silly, yeah. This is really silly, I can't believe I'm going to do this. But...if ever you need another writer or "idea person" (I don't know what this means), it would be my absolute dream. I love what this game does. I love what your message and purpose is. I would do this ♥♥♥♥ for free, and I mean that. I've said since I was very young that I want to have an impact on people and this is exactly the medium for it. Your games feel...magical to me. Like there is a true connection to beings on the other side. Maybe you guys are all angels sent down to Earth and blessed with coding skills, I don't know. But I would love to be a part of this...somehow. I am in creative writing, looking to write and inspire others. So, yeah, I just did that and put myself out there.
For those reading this, and who maybe read this entire thing (thank you)...play these games. All of them. Every single one. It might seem repetitive, and you certainly don't have to do it all in one go like my crazy self did, but they mean something. You don't have to believe in a higher power, you don't have to even believe in yourself. You just have to believe that something, whether it be the world, or yourself, can change. I have accepted through these games that I am a balance of dark and light, good and evil, something in between even, and so much more. My experiences are simultaneously unique but also linked within the sphere of human experience. And yes, it didn't perfectly cure my depression or anxiety as they say in many games, but they inspire growth, newness, chances, changes. They inspire a future worth living for.
So, yeah, um. Thanks Randumb Studios. I really hope you see this and I can't wait for Chasing Demons (I have it on my Wishlist). Good luck on game-making!
