I discovered this game literally the day after I got in my car in the middle of the night and drove off, hoping something horrible would happen because I didn't care if I lived or died, I just wanted it all to end. I tried to pretend the whole thing didn't happen, but I found this game by chance, played it on a whim, and it made me realize that I didn't want to die. I didn't want to leave everything behind. I just wanted my life to change. I live in a terrible apartment that's falling apart and making me sick, I dropped out of school, a friend passed away, the hot water cut out in the middle of winter and I felt like I would just... struggle for the rest of my life. But I realized that's better than giving up. If I give up, I can't change anything. And, well, my partner ended up taking a chance and is in the process of getting a new job, and if this works out, we'll probably never have to worry about money again. We're scraping by but we'll get through. Thank you for making this beautiful game.
