The interaction! Hard to really pin down why but I think that revealing things and staving off the dark is an inherently pleasant process, it's also elegant in its simplicity and avoids slipping into tedium.

I'd have introduced more of a running narrative. I feel the fundamental idea has more than enough potential to serve a short story or explicit theme, but that's probably horribly out of scope ehe

sweet work! really lit up my afternoon :))

Thank you for the kind words!! I need a full game too... It'll be so awesomes

Thank you for the motivating words, I'll finish it!! rahhh!!!

Thank you for the kind words! Not actively working on it right now but I hope to get some time in between uni-work to wrap it up as intended ^^

Thanks for playing!

This is a really really sweet message thank you so much for playing!!!

I really want to continue working on this but just haven't had the time in combination with my studies,,,, but I'm very hopeful about it, it's definitely a game which I think should fully exist in some sorta way

Again thank you for sharing your thoughts, it helps keep me excited about this project and it's so very appreciated

Yayyy thank you for the kind words! Especially glad to hear the submerge-into-the-noise sentiment, I'm hoping to retain that in the final version ^^

Thanks for playing! Not sure when I'll pick development of this up again but I appreciate the kind words.

Thank you for the kinds words ^^

Not -intentionally- but I did watch the first season, so maybe subconsciously? Thanks for playing!

Really touching and beautifully put together

that's exactly as I took it HELL yeah thank you for playing!!

yay yay thank you!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you for the kind words!

Motivated me to embroider a manual orchi hat, incredibly written work.

Tysm! Got some similar feedback from IRLs, so some accessibility improvements r underway :)

This is extremely sweet to hear, thank you so much for the kind words!

I really like the muppet interpretation of the character designs, unintentional but I guess you quickly arrive at it when you're aiming for cute n silly-looking ^^

Harry is definitely Itske's estranged dad, I should draw them together sometime... eheheh...

Thanks for playing! I'm glad the bell pepper crunchies r appreciated hehe

They definitely clash in a very satisfying way, especially the lighting in the illustrations rly helped sell the effect for me. Taking notes taking notes, thanks for the detailed response!

Beautiful work, speaks to me even as a very passive netizen who did not directly interact with fandom and internet culture much. Computers provided us with the means to broadcast our broken brains and brokenness in the least productive way possible and seeing this phenomenon splayed out like this hurts (in a very good way).

All of this is incredibly lovely to hear, thank you!

And in case you're interested, Itske is pronounced "it's-kuh" if I had to try and translate it to English phonetics.

wowowowowowow this was an incredible read, this'll be sloshing around in my head for a long while. Also in a technical sense it left me very curious about the process behind the 2d/3d mashup.

Funnily enough the slow buildup of Lilith made me think of the ps2 dororo game, but instead of utilizing it for hack-and-slash purposes it's now for terrifying-loss-of-control-of-self purposes!

Lilith's dialogue was beautiful and made me feel like the computer I sometimes wish I was.

I need to slam my head through a wall and choke on the cotton candy insulation inside of it, thank you for making this.

Thank you!

I lack the control of words necessary to describe this work's impact. It feels nice, and a bit peaceful.

JRPG existential horrors and manipulating women ooooh I love it so so so, and the women are written so distinctly too!!! Beautiful stuff

I freaking love soda

YES

Completely and utterly invested the whole way through, and an ending that made a full-bodied shiver crawl through me.

need Shiro fr

Beautifully written, hooked from start to finish!

Correct! That's where the demo ends currently, I hope to see this project through one day but currently I simply haven't had the time or space. Regardless, thanks for playing!!

A lot of big frustrations got to me to a point where I felt the need to make it, I usually don't publish my 'vent games' but I was in a bit of a manic episode and forgot about its existence on here till now. I'll probably take that one down now.

Hiya, thanks for the kind words! To answer your questions:

• I'm currently working towards my master's thesis without much time to spare, I do want to finish developing Anders but that won't be anytime soon.
• Currently it has no way of saving/loading your progress, the game will be different enough to not feel too much like a repeat though.
• Senses are predefined in the game.
• This won't ever be implemented, the game is meant to be played with a printed out Cyclopaedia.

thank you so much, and thats awesome to hear! feel free to link it here or thru email, I'd love to play it if you do

thank you so much for playing and the kind words!

to not spoil too much of the fun decisions don't necessarily shape the world around you, but moreso how you and your character grow to think about the world of Anders. In short there's no way to miss entire sections of the game!

Thanks for playing! I've had to shift focus on life stuff for a while but development has resumed now that things died down, it's become a passion project besides uni and work so progress is slow and I work on it when I have the time to.

When I do roll out an update I'll do so with an announcement, to get notified for that you could follow me!

Heya, thanks for playing! Portions of the print out will definitely change, in the sense that things will be added to it. You wont have to replace your baby in its entirety!

tytytyty! I loved Disco's system and wanted to experiment with it really badly, this project was the perfect excuse. Very curious how other people might apply it in their own projects as well!

I'm also glad the PDF-on-the-side gameplay was an enjoyable part of it; personally love games that require you to take notes or sketch maps to progress, those were a big inspiration for me :3
