Right, I like that a lot. It's okay to have bad mental health :>

Thank you for responding!!

(Oh nooo I'm so sorry WB!! I didn't realize they used they/them pronouns! D: I should have checked beforehand.)

Yes, I meant as in being afamilial, the term familial attraction is kinda weird-sounding. Yeah, there are negative numbers of inc*st in this game.

Thank you so much for the clarification! I'm glad that wasn't the intention (and I thought it wasn't/shouldn't be that way). What threw me off was "Who cares you're corrupted?" because I know people say "Even if you're aspec, we still care about you". And I know some people use "corruption" in robot metaphors to refer to being aspec even in the best intentions. I probably just didn't get that what the others said wasn't supposed to be true/literal/whatnot, though at least this is for others who also didn't get it, lmao. Thank you for clearing this up!

Raaagh omg thank you! Good luck with your projects as well! I'll try to check out the next games you're making (if I can)! :)

(I'm so sorry for being so awkward, I truly meant the best intentions for everything I said!)

I just finished this game right now and OH MY GOD IT'S SO GOOD.
(Maybe some spoilers ahead? Idk... There shouldn't be.)

The story, the lore, the games, the characters (Waterbottle deserves the W in his name), the designs, the art, it's all SO FREAKING GOOD. I'm also a big fan of robots, so that's definitely a bonus. This game took so long to complete, and it was a freaking EMOTIONAL ROLLERCOASTER. I'm delighted to have discovered this game. I could see the amount of thought put into this game, and it seriously pays off. 

I really rarely see games with such heavy queer representation! (Neopronouns, aplatonicism, aromanticism, asexuality, QPRs, lovelessness,  familial attraction, etc...) And it's so GOOD. There are also characters with disabilities.
I love (no pun intended) how this game represents being aplatonic (I actually realized I might be aplatonic myself from this game! Though nothing confirmed yet. I know so far I'm demiplatonic, but that's a whole entire other conversation). I'm generally on the aspec spectrum (and I'm neurodivergent), and this game made me feel so seen. This is a one-of-a-kind media. I'd recommend this to anyone.

The only annoying part was how long the hallways were (and the character moves so slow-) and there were confusing layouts of some areas (I wish I had gotten to see all the extra lore and stuff) :( And sometimes you had barely any direction on where to go.
I would also say one pet peeve would be how being aplatonic is handled as "corruption" or "being made wrong", so it's as if something is inherently wrong about being aspec. This feels like it was never addressed, though I could have missed something.
(Though no hate, just saying so others know.)

But otherwise, this game is probably one of my favorites that I have ever played, and it has been so influential on me. I wish to create a game like this someday, and I'm thinking of getting into a bit of game development because of this game. I absolutely loved everything about it. I'll definitely be recommending this to others!
