fluffbyte rated two kinds of people

fluffbyte rated a game 22 days ago
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux.

this one wrapped around me like a blanket in a fever dream. this is certainly something i need to play a few more time to really get. backroom's and house of leaves, and skinamarink energy  is floating all thruout this piece. sometime I wasn't sure If i was confused or just processing the contradictions like i should. this is an uneasy  thriller and made me feel insane.

the reveals towards the end cleared things up a bit, but the house is still cluttered . some doors are still blocked, and theres clothes spilling out of the drawers. im still putting everything in its proper place. 

i wonder what the two types of  people are. abusers and victims? those who receive and those who give? those who teach and those who learn? those that hurt and those that heal (hahaha)?  those who delude themselves into thinking they're right and those who delude themselves into thinking they're wrong? or maybe even those who hurt with good intentions and those who help with bad intentions?

i might be stabbing at the dark here.

one couple is textually toxic and the other isn't shown to be but their relationship is toxic by nature of what it is, or at least what Suzzette thinks it to be?  (buring the lead on the inciting incident was a good call)

there is plenty of guilt and projection, inablity to let go and learned helplessness at play in this VN.

okay i just looked up cuckcooing, like the wikipedia page and oh...i didnt know this was a thing. the fact that it has a name implies it happens a lot...hell there is a lot more context here. im almost dizzy..and so glad we looked it up afterward.

the conpunding themes of ch1ld exploidtation are growing in this house like the black mold.

i think...wierdly im supposed to be confused? (is that a cope) i too feel like i just escaped from being kiddnapped into an lynchian maze. im still trying to get my head straight and figure out what the fuck happened... but i think the storytelling was effective. grimly so.

unrealiable narrators and the like will do that to you.
