minor spoilers ahead
i just finished my first playthrough and i can confidently say this is hands down one of the best games on this website i've ever played, no question. it had me hooked from the start to finish with its realistic, sometimes comedic dialogue that made me actually feel attached to the characters. i just love all the little details in the environment that you can inspect as the story progresses. ive been meaning to play this for a while now since i really liked the art style and the premise sounded interesting as someone with adhd. and i cant believe i didnt play this sooner because holy fuck i wished it would never end. id gladly pay for a game like this with 10+ hours of playtime or longer.
i honestly cant remember the last time a 3 hour long game made me feel absolutely empty after finishing it because i got so attached to the characters. there were game design choices that kept up the suspense really well (e.g. timing of save checkpoints) and had me on an emotional rollercoaster. im a huge sucker for questionable or problematic relationships as depicted here and it scratched my itch for it perfectly. thank you for making this and for publishing it. i dont regret getting the ending i got at all no matter how ethically dubious it was. i mean thats how it was throughout the whole thing i was like "this would be so fucked up and inappropriate on so many levels in reality. why do i still like where this is going." no complaints 10/10
edit: just to add shamelessly that i had no hesitation initiating the tub scene whatsoever and a part of me even hoped for the slim chance for something More
