Really nice game, great take on the theme. Its really fascinating how confused you get when your controls are changing. I love that you started simple and then took away the helpful arrows at the bottom. I played up to level 90, I enjoyed it very much. Well done.

Good job on this entry ! I had to give up on lvl25 as my mind was starting to get confused haha

Also i had some levels that were impossible as the circle was blocked by walls.

Super original, loved it! (although it was quite challenging at times)

This was a nice little game, great ramp-up of difficulty. It got super hard though and felt like it was never going to end so I stopped after a while.  Maybe some more story or level 40/50 would be helpful if it is supposed to have an end.

I loved this game, i played until level 53, so i don't know if it has an ending, it's cool to see a jam game with a story and that talk about mental illness, i also like how the controls change on each level, just a little suggestion: change a bit the art during the game, the controls are getting harder and she starts to feel worse, but it doesn't reflect on the art of the levels, but it is just a suggestion, it doesn't effect the game, nice job, loved!

The game is "infinite" but the dialogues stop at around 50 so you must have seen the whole story. Very good suggestion for the drawings! I'll try to make my own style to evolve it on a next version.

I was a bit confused to how it fit the theme at first but I read through your description and I find it really creative. Also love how it's infinite I think that's a really cool addition for a game jam game.

A cool and challenging game the further you go into it :)
I really like the idea of changing the controls after each level and also making the ui disappearing after a couple of levels, which increases the difficulty.

Developer

I'm glad you liked it, thanks for your comment !

The music is a bit too loud. The concept of the game works really well with the theme and the level design is creative but when the arrow UI at the bottom disappeared, the game became difficult to play. It might be a message that relates to the difficulties of mental illness but it does hinder me, as a player, a lot from continuing with the game. Despite this, I think this was very well made.

Thanks for your feedback ! I'll look for a solution to increase the difficulty less quickly, or at least give the choice, for the next version of the game.
