Briefly explain your games interpretation of the Pacifist theme?
The game aligns with a pacifist theme as it emphasizes introspection, emotional understanding, and reflection over conflict or conquest. Instead of engaging in battles or competitive scenarios, players explore the terrain of their own memories and emotions. This non-violent approach promotes understanding and empathy, key components of pacifism, as players navigate the delicate subject of memory loss. The game's focus is on personal growth and emotional resilience, rather than overcoming external adversaries, aligning it closely with pacifist principles.

Thanks for submitting this, we read through it on stream together. Anything that challenges people to face up to difficult topics to face is good. There's not enough natural opportunities to talk about taboo or sad topics in life, so finding ways to encourage it is admirable. Thanks for getting involved.
