I noticed that if you load the page "as desktop" instead of "as mobile", the game will look as expected.

I wanted to treat the topic with respect while also exposing the player to some common elements. That said, I distinctly avoided any references to addiction and NSFW topics, even though it would have made the game more realistic.

I have not tried Twine. I'll look it up.

Thanks for playing!

Edit: Twine looks interesting. Maybe I'll just use this if I get the motivation to make another game like this in the future. It was an interesting challenge making this game - a lot of booleans in the game state machine.

Thanks a lot. I totally get it. I think you’ve done a great work and most players will play this game fine.

i loved that

Thanks for that, and i get it too.

and i also liked you dared to explore a topic that is difficult (and meaningful).

i’m doing something similar with my own game, and have the same conundrum about “showing it realistically and as intense as is, but at the same time be careful of peoples’ sensitivities”. i’m still figuring out the balance point.

I hope you enjoy using twine :)
