'RIP Me' is a bizarre experience to read, as I wasn't sure if this was meant to be a comedy or not. I enjoyed my short time with it, but I think I was more amused by the clever use of the visual medium of upside-down sprites than the other parts of the story. The absolute antagonistic relationship that the main character and the wolf character has in this story is bizarre to me. It makes me wonder if there's supposed to be some kind of theme or symbolism to this upside-down condition or if it's just supposed to be a bizarre scenario to write witty banter and cutting internal monologues.
The theme itself is only mildly metaphorical, as I find it's a stretch to have 'conflict being resolved' as a representation of 'light in the dark'. Creatively, it sets up a crazy premise, but then proceeds to have little interest in it. Perhaps that's to add to an 'absurdist' quality to make it overall more comedic. If this was attempting to be more absurdist, I feel like it should've added more elements of it. Overall, commendable for completing this story in one day, but feels like this came from a stream of consciousness that really needed more time to cook.
