Creative Vision / Rationale / How Did You Incorporate the Theme
We wanted to showcase how even the worst intentions or lack of intention can still lead to healing and how reciprocal the process of healing is. While our scammer therapist main character accidentally offers their clients the right amount of space, company, and knowledge to help grow and begin to heal, these wonderful clients also showcase generosity by motivating our scammer therapist to think a bit more about their own life. Perhaps it's finally time to stop putting things off for tomorrow. To enjoy life again. Of course, not every path will lead the main character to a happy ending, but they will have learned enough to ensure that their clients can have happy middles nonetheless.

Not all the choices matter because they shouldn't have to. People are hurt and scarred, scared and will continue to make mistakes, but they're people. Maybe there's a bit of generosity and help within them the whole time. Even if they're a scammer.

And what our scammer therapist learns from their clients will give them a push to be generous with themselves. Even if it's a little late, it's never too late. To see what networks we build and how the gift of a little joy and space, companionship and acknowledgement can resonate and shine.

I loved all of the character art. Quiet a peaceful and somber game

I really liked the music and the art, but specially the dialogue.

It's quite soothing to just read about the client's story.

Congrats to everyone who participated in the making of the game.
