There is this really beautiful alignment between theme and mechanic here where I'd get one response wrong and I start worrying about whether or not I'm going to be able to get through the conversation at all and I start having anxiety about saying the right thing and I start second guessing all my choices and even the ones that I'm sure about I have to pause and think "is that right?"

I will say that I did get confused at first about how to produce the new symbols on the second conversation. I actually thought I'd get different answers based on whether I was using WASD, the arrow keys, or my mouse. Its hard to say what the right choice is because on the one hand I think spelling it out too much would kinda take away some of the mystery. Maybe having like a mirror or something that you could optionally practice with could work. Maybe I'm just an idiot. Maybe having to struggle to figure it out is the way to sell the idea.

A work of art that makes you connect to this social situation extremely well through gameplay.

Perfect abstract art, system and the audio also supported the whole experience.

Really good game! Communicates learning an abstract system very fluidly.

Almost too good, but the first ~10 minutes, i thought there was like a pattern I had to follow, not just remember which symbol was on each key. Still, felt really good to finally be able to solve them really fast.

I played for like 30 minutes, but eventually quit when I noticed that one of the characters changed the key from where it comes from. I couldnt figure out why I wasnt able to get through what I think was the final screen after like 6 tries, but I guess that explains it. Was it supposed to be that way? I added the character below so you know what I'm talking about. 

super fricking good with great puzzle that once you figure out you feel like a genius

Congrats! Interesting concept and vert very nice art! And the narrative hits where it needs to hit.

But I can’t figure out how exactly the mechanic works, I ended up doing it mostly randomly until I discovered the combination, I am curious how it works, care to share 👀?

This is a REALLY fantastic game and it makes me sad that players might miss the point of the mechanic. Very well done

Nice graphics, but I could not understand the game from the beginning,  I had trouble with what to press to "talk with someone"
