You Shouldn't Be Here

The mouse button as a confirmation and skip at the same time should be changed. Its an atmospheric game that focus on story telling with philosophical aspect in life. Nice story 8/10

I enjoyed it, it might not be everyone's taste, with the deeper meaning, As an artist and some what wanna be game dev, I enjoyed the story telling experience and pixel art. The art direction was my favorite thing about it, and really nailed down the vibe. More of a story then a game, so keep that in mind. I think it's worth the buy if your looking for something a little different and want a thought provoking journey.

I love these kind of games, where the developers surley snorted some drugs, just to tell me don't do drugs! And also stay away from junkie poets!

You Shouldn't Be Here es una experiencia corta pero sumamente impactante que demuestra que no se necesitan muchas horas para dejar una huella profunda. Lo que más me cautivó fue la madurez con la que aborda temas sensibles y complejos, tratándolos con un respeto y una inteligencia admirables que te atrapan de principio a fin. Visualmente es una absoluta maravilla con un arte increíble que construye una atmósfera perfecta, sirviendo como el lienzo ideal para los poemas y las profundas reflexiones que salpican la historia. En definitiva, una joya breve, íntima y estéticamente hermosa que te deja pensando mucho tiempo después de terminarla.

For the hour or so you're here, you're in a psychedelic dystopian fever dream of despair.

Very cool visuals, music, and design in general. The aesthetics are amazing. The writing was good but became to on the nose, repetitive, and edgy as the game went further. The writing could have done with less as the poems and the imagery convey the theme well enough. The repetitiveness, and edginess spoil the themes. I didn't like the trope of the looser stoner being far beyond everyone else especially the sheep like religious consumerist folk -as the stoners go to kill themselves mind you. This flaw of the addict being closer to God than everyone else whilst also constantly consenting to self destructive behaviour then the hand waving of any improvement of the self poisons the games theme. The game is better than anything I'll ever create however and is well worth the price.

The story was interesting .
