Where's the link to play it? :/

Aha! Missed the http at the start. Should work now.

This was... interesting. You got a few chuckles out of me, but for the most part your writing was pretty disgusting, which is more of a complement than an insult, based on the subject matter. The music in the middle seemed really out of place, but it was nice to hear something more than silence for a bit. Pretty short for a text game, would have liked to see more branching paths.

I was slightly confused by the juxtaposition of outdoor landscapes and internal organs/fluids but it was nevertheless fun to play through the scenarios. Just enough wit to make it entertaining but not so much that it became overbearing.

I also didn't know there would be loud music but when it came on I had to chuckle a little :)

Congrats!

This was certainly interesting.

Enjoyed the IF references and fourth-wall breaking. Pretty damn funny at times. Oh, and really well-written; some of the imagery is just horrifically sublime. An inventive use of theme too.

And, of course, it definitely has the best title of the comp.

What a weird experience. I'm not sure that I knew what I was doing, but I got all the humours and used the pentagram. Fake Gamer!

Pretty funny story.

You are crazy! Ah, ah!

The background color shifting with your respective choice of humor was a really good integration of mechanics into gameplay, and the imagery was delightfully disgusting. The inexplicable rock music that started blaring whenever you unleashed the yellow bile made me laugh too.

I guess if I have a complaint it's that the more referential humor contrasts with the rest of the game. Haha, you find a pentagram because adventure game logic. Haha, it's a neckbeard who says "misandry" a couple times. They felt like cheap gags at the expense of the overall vibe of the game. Not problematic enough to be a serious detractor from (imo) the creepiest game of the jam.

"Ok cool"

kristof 2014-05-15 23:05

I do not really know what to make of it. But it was definitely interesting :)

Cool twist of the theme! Pretty much everything has been said.

raiyumi 2014-05-16 07:20

This was.. interesting. It certainly surprised me when the sound kicked in. It's got a bit of humor with the gruesome text. I liked it. :)

Once again you come through!
Colours, fonts and narrative in a cataclysmic experience.

Never stop writing!

Also, you play with words and create the eeriest of eerie moods.

Nice writing and liked the use of music.

Lucariatias 2014-05-19 17:19

Absolutely hilarious and fantastic placing of music. Well written and enjoyable to play.
Ever considered writing a full novel?
