if you have adhd, (the kind that knots your brain into anxious hysteria such that your grasp of reality is too tenuous to reliably narrate to the psychiatrist who keeps increasing your methylphenidate dosage.) there are many lines of dialogue in this game that will cut into you like a hot knife cuts into butter. i was surprised, then i burst into tears for a minute or two.
the writing, overall, is intelligent. it shows in the sensitivity of the story's subtext. by that i mean the slow moments, the scenes that give angel and lee a great quality of verisimilitude, as you infer the significance of everything they don't say. of course the charming and wonderfully expressive artwork helps too.
regardless of how receptive any audience is to the niche the game occupies, i hope the creator is proud of, or at least satisfied with what they've made here. their emotional insight and technical skill are what made their game special.
ill be thinking about angel and lee for a good long while.
