How it feels

A melancholic, hand-drawn interactive comic that feels like a quiet, surreal trudge through loneliness and despair, with flashes of absurd hope.

What players say

Players describe it as a short interactive graphic novel rather than a game, about a young woman's summer of isolation and depression. The deliberately ugly hand-drawn art and melancholic soundtrack fit the mood, but the story offers no resolution and some found it too bleak to finish.
