It's cute. And free. And gay. A good deal I think.

I thought it was so cute and entertaining. Then, as I was playing through trying to get the second-to-last and last endings unlocked, I started to see all the symbolism that could be tied to real life, and... Really great game. Let's just say: I won't forget.

Such a great and cute game! Not difficult to play through at all, very story-focused... Perfect amount of game time to play in one stream, and I got do do a bunch of great voice acting with all the characters... hope you make a sequel! Also, pineapple belongs on pizza. :3

The game's broken once you get to the part in the sewer. You have something like half a second to click on a rat that randomly flashes somewhere on the screen, and you have to click four in a row with no mistakes. The dev's "fix" is to lower your FPS. Homie, if your game's broken above 60 FPS, you need to lock your game at 60 FPS. That's not the player's job. There are also a ton of English errors. They're relatively minor things like sause instead of sauce, so they don't make it impossible to understand the story, but they're still annoying and make the overall experience a lot worse than it should be.
