A fun way to work the whole playlist in together, reading this feels like if people watching got a massive upgrade. I like that it feels like a collection of short stories, and that each story has a unique identity rather than blending into the whole. The UI layout is cute too, and feels just barely reminiscent of looking at a seating plan for a train car or an airplane.

Wow! This felt like a collection of magical realist short stories, with a clever ending. Really enjoyed it. Your prose has a nice rhythm to it, e.g. "before I knew it I was spending my afternoons picking out groceries and medication for Picasso while she rested her pretty head selling software solutions to the very internet that had once made her a prisoner of anywhere."

This is the only Decker game I've played, which I'm thinking I should rectify. Did like how the interface foreshadowed the epilogue.

thank you so much!! I'm glad someone got what I was trying to do with the interface. definitely recommend trying more Decker - benydanette's game from this comp is a great place to start!

I loved this trip. 

The aesthetic is super elegant, the various stories well written, the epilogue brilliant.

Bravo!

I see one of the songs I submitted in that line up. I was intrigued by your interpretation.
