I honestly wasn't sure what I was supposed to be doing most of the time, but at the same time I can tell you were going for something unsettling, and it did manage to achieve that.

Cool idea, I see the potential in a story-based game like this. Wasn't too sure what the controls were doing, and sometimes the text went away before I could finish reading. But the art and presentation are nice.

Honestly, the premise of this is so fun I enjoyed the experience even if it lacked actually there being a game. Hopefully, you can work on fixing it because I think this story of "feature doesn't fit game but I've worked so hard on it" is something that every game dev/artist can relate to.

The artwork is amazing! Game is a little broken, but still enjoyable.

Great idea, beautiful pixel art, shame it broke before release :/ I just saw the below comment

The premise of fighting back with your computer is amusing. Certain meters/boxes weren't clear, but that may have been the point. Admittingly I felt a little uneasy, as if something cerebral would happen if I did just the right actions.

I played through once clicking everything as much as possible, I wasn't satisfied. 

I restarted the game, but this time clicked nothing... to no avail. I'm as empty as I ever was.

Do I even exist? Our games even worth it? If I played it a little differently, would I matter more?

nah it's broken. I'm ashamed to have that on my Itch page.

No worries! It still gave me an experience, and that's worth something :)  you'll also be able to patch it up for the future to see too. Cheers
