How it feels

A short, experimental point-and-click narrative following a solo indie dev's struggle, with existential dread and optional reading, released for free.

What players say

Players describe it as a short, free experience about game development that is honest but messy. Many find it too preachy and repetitive with its voting segments, while others value the ending's emotional weight. The game's scattered ideas and direct message split reviewers.
