Oh, this game took me on a journey. The game is earnest in its story, and I love how gender, kink, societal expectations and personal struggles all wind around each other to create a compelling narrative with something to say. There were also some really poignant lines - I relate to and love the poetry of “The stage we perform on is the screen. The body is transformed into light and pixels, displayed across a monitor, flesh becomes intangible.’ And that bit near the end, of “It’s over and he’s still here”? Made me smile, honestly.
Echoing that colour coding the characters would be nice - I did have to stop a couple of times to mentally distinguish who was who. It also took me a second to find the links to the next page when I first started the game, due to them being the same colour as the rest of the text.
Engaging with blatantly and unapologetically queer fiction is good for the soul, and this was very good for it indeed.
