See, how I run, from you...
There is a lot I want to say about this game.
Honestly, the RNG isn't that bad once you know your way around save-scumming and the fast foward button.
I really liked all the characters in this game. Except the Landlady and the Scammer.
I noticed some interesting Parallels between concepts and characters though:
- There is a sheep named Parsnip. Parsnip eventually begins to be a main character, the rabbit.
- In this time, the Magenta is the evil gangly force that obliterates you. Gold rat girl is good, and is the color of lesbians. Meanwhile, in the future, Yellow is the strange gangly force that makes you go mad, while Pink (Trixie) Rat Girl is main protag and is generally a good person.
- The Seventh is somewhat a composite character of Nikita and Tabby. Transgender fox girl with an affinity for spiritual stuff who just has sex toys around her room? Check. Also believes the weird eldritch gangly force is coming for her? Also yes. Main difference is that you have to deliberately force yourself into the Magenta route, where you drown, whereas it's very easy to end up burning Nikita alive if you're not paying attention.
- The replica of the Seventh in her dreams is reminiscent of the Pastry/Meat Golem that Gregg cannot stop eating.
- Heidi and The Raven. Need I say more?
- The Pulp Writer and Nasty Girl both make me think of LeRose.
- Lady Moonshine. Similar to another hooded Lady....
- The closest counterpart I could find to the Nightmare is Neufreund, although ignoring The Nightmare literally does next to nothing. The bastard can't even ruin the Golden Ending if it tried. Wimp.
Overrall, after reading the artbook, I'm still a bit worried I played the game wrong somehow, even after I did take the time to read through some of the dialogue options. I probably missed out on some endings (i only got the solitary, musk, circus, golden and boneman endings) but nevertheless I still really enjoyed this game. I would highly reccomand. Also, here is an image of me doing the closest thing to a 100% of the game. Maybe I'll go back to see if I can get estrogenized AND get the golden ending, since no one told me devoting your life to Marigold gives you a get out of cold free card (womp. Wasted an action getting ciggies. Couldn't inject mahself... though I did end up comforting The Raven.)
Thank you for this. I'm still scared of Parsnip's power.
Never they ponder, whether electric, calming if you look at it right...
