Dissociation as an out of control feeling - players have no control over the choices being made, and the bulk of the game is randomized, with no choice of what scene comes next

i am very smart and complain about a stylistic choice in this game at the beginning as if it were there by mistake and not because the developers intended it to be like that

Character creator didnt work right for me unfortunately - font choice couldve been a little beter.

I had some issues with the character creator where I couldn't enter any values. I like the text-based idea, I think that's cool! I think some additional polish on the UI/Font would have gone a long way here, to help frame the idea in the best way. 

Lacking in the aesthetics department. And a number of bugs that kinda made it unplayable for me. The first three options to input data wouldn't work and most of the choices weren't selectable.

This was definitely a more serious game than what I would expect in a game jam of this type. Although the lack of choice has been used many a times to express a sense of meaninglessnes, depression and others, it still was a grabbing experience. (Does that make sense? Grabbing experience? Sorry, english is not my native language.) There should have been some polish in the text here and there, but I still liked this game. I kinda feel weird rating it by how fun it is, because it clearly doesn't try to be fun in the traditional meaning of the word.
