A claustrophobic, anxious sprint through a game developer's burnout, blending light exploration with a constant sense of pressure.

What players say
Players praise the polished pixel art and soundtrack, but opinions split on the writing, with some finding the humor enjoyable and others put off by its cynical tone. The game is very short, around 3 hours, and many note the lack of key rebinding as a rough edge.
