This is golden, Edorg. There should be more focus on the generational coping mechanisms passed down through generations. These started many years ago. I think the same way as you about this, and you managed to show this in a short but very precise way. I take a bow to you!

Thank you so much for the incredibly kind words—and I am bowing right back to you!
Generational coping mechanisms are such a deeply ingrained part of who we are, and my main goal with this project was to shine a light on how these invisible patterns are passed down (and how incredibly hard it is to break them).
To hear that this message landed so precisely and resonated with you is honestly the highest praise I could ask for as a developer. Thank you for playing, and for truly understanding the heart of this game.
Yes, it’s hard, I know.

I would be honored if you DM me through this game jam’s Discord channel. Because it is too rare to find someone who feels the same way about this matter.
