i found this game about a week ago and when i realised it was written by the same author as She Was Swallowed By The Sun, i had to put off reading it for a few days to make sure i was mentally prepared.
a few days later, it's 5am and i've been sitting here for an hour just trying to process how i feel about the experience...
the art and music were amazing, and i really appreciate how clever the textboxes are, it feels so much more immersive than simply writing "argo texted nessa" or "haley sent a voice message". i also loved how multiple conversations would go on simultaneously and there were status updates for characters even when the scene wasn't focusing on them. the text or textboxes shaking in some moments was fantastic touch too.
[STORY SPOILERS BEYOND HERE]
the ending made me feel like I'd been gutted with a knife and i could feel myself tearing up during the credits wanting to ask "why?". learning who laura is and reading what maya and roaches did during final scene made me feel hollow and disgusted, despite knowing it was going to happen from the lengthy build-up.
i don't know. i've been writing for about an hour and STILL cant find the words to express all my feelings, so i think i'll just say THANK YOU for another amazing art piece and i'm excited to see what you'll create next!!
