Loved the story even though i feel like I don't understand the whole message behind it.
Fuck this hit me deep at my heart

the video was worth it
Glad to know you liked it! But what do you mean by "video"? ~-~
in about 3 hours my playthrough is gonna be uploaded to my channel
Feel free to link it up here once you finish uploading it!
Just finished my first run of the game, so I'm pretty sure I still have more of the game to experience.
So far the game has been an amazing short story, it doesn't overstay its welcome and says what it has to say.
Won't say much about the story other than it can hit a little too close to home for some people (saying this because it hit me), but that's not a bad thing, its an abstract game telling a very realistic story.
The atmosphere of the game is reaaaally amazing, the artstyle coupled with a minimalistic soundtrack does wonders to make you feel desolate.
Overall, it's a great experience that completly deserves a shot, even more if you like games like milk inside of a bag or visions from the ceiling.
Hope to see more from the developer! you've got talent, and it's amazing that this game was done by one person alone
Thanks a lot!!
This was an interesting horror visual novel that attracted my attention due to the visual art of the game. The main character design really reminded me of my favourite anime, Serial Experiments Lain but the storyline of the game was much more depressing and saddening due to the conditions affecting Lucy/Stella mentally. I am unsure if I understood the crux of the game but it was definitely interesting to see Lucy/Stella communicate with each other and understand the mind of Lucy. I assumed that Lucy gets saved at the end after all the various events that occurred while she was drowning and she becomes whole again after the event and meeting Stella. The main issue I had with the game was that there were times where it felt like it was a little boring, especially the part involving the cat as it felt overly extended when the player already got the point behind the cat story.
Other than that, loved the artstyle and the storyline behind the game. It was a gradual immersive experience where it takes time to understand and figure out what is happening in the story before being able to feel the emotions involved with Lucy/Stella near the end of the game.
Thank you for reading my comment and I wish you good luck in your future endeavours.
Thanks a lot for your review!
