The game leaves a good impression. The visuals and audio are simply stunning! But honestly, it's not scary. I played it at night with headphones, but I didn't feel even the slightest bit creepy. I also didn't quite understand how the theme of parasitism is explored. The choices are well-designed, and it's funny that you can't refuse them. It's a good game that could be developed further. Good luck to you, Godot brother!

another user had a similar comment, so ill paste what i reponsed to him with below:
"The world, being a machine, seeks to augment you until you are just another a machine it can control. While I wish we could have had more time to exaggerate it, you'll notice more mechanical parts appear in the enviornment as the level progresses.
That is the parasite aspect of it all, its body horror. We may do a later update where this is more clear :)"
We went for more of a psycologically scary idea with a grim setting rather than jumpscares or other types of horror. Again, I would have liked to make this more clear but time constraints demanded some content to be cut.
thank you for your thoughtfull comment! the critique is very appreciated, thanks for playing :D
