How it feels
A pixel-art RPG that mixes comedy with psychological exploration, feeling like a personal struggle against inner demons and social anxiety.

What players say
An autobiographical RPG about depression and struggle that players find heartfelt and relatable. The combat is a real-time system reminiscent of Mega Man Battle Network, but some find it poorly explained and battles can be visually chaotic. The game is short, around 6 to 8 hours, and very linear with almost no side content.
