Another masterpiece from Jesse Makkonen!
What a psychological trip this game was. I adored how I constantly went back and forth about how I wanted to approach the game as I played, as I truly was trying to discern if I was losing my mind or not as the character. The art style is incredible, the sound design adds so much dimension, and it leaves a meaningful impact even though you can play the whole thing through in under an hour. Such a great project.
Such a compelling VN and though quite cryptic at times its story is really well-written and holds alot of depth, definitely one of my favorites.
Artísticamente es una maravilla. Y transmite una buena sensación de no saber que es real y que no, de los problemas mentales que tiene la protagonista. Pero la historia es demasiado críptica, y honestamente, tampoco hay mucho contenido en el juego. entre 30 y 45 minutos de duración. Le doy un voto positivo porque me costó unos centimos por él, pero pagar el precio completo, o incluso rebajado, es demasiado.
