Well, that was a trip. š¤
Edit: I think thereās an error within āyou sneeze nearly blindsā. Not sure if it just lacks a comma or if āblindsā should be āblindingā. š¤·šæāāļø
Haha, thanks. I had fun embracing the weird with this one
Wow this was so bittersweet. I really felt the loss and pain through the narrator's eyes and thoughts, and loved how you portrayed the senselessness of grief and coming to terms with it. I also got the "taking a break" ending! Looking forward to playing again and seeing some other ones.
Oh, thank you! I'm glad you connected with it
I also got ātaking a breakā.
By the way, the game says it isnāt mobile friendly, but itās fine. I think you need to check the mobile box on the game info
Oh, bless you, thanks. I rushed through getting the game posted and probably missed a lot of details š
I got the "Taking a Break" ending. Pretty cool. :)
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it
