Very stressful at first but gets easier as you learn how the game works. Funny how accurate that seems towards depression.

Really cool and original game!! And very good looking art style :D
If I'm rating this as a game, pacing in the beginning could be a little bit smoother. The initial experience is a little harsh.
If I'm rating this as an experience conveying depression, it's great. Really gets the feeling across.
I love the artstyle, but the gameplay was kinda lacking tbh
This is great at conveying the feeling of depression. Thank you.
At the start I found it very difficult to manage but after a while it became easier. If that was done intentionally in order demonstrate the effects of depression then you're a genius ;). Gameplay is a bit repetitive, graphics are pretty good, but you really killed it on the mood aspect. Good job man.
This is too real, @Dakota Jones, too real.. Great game, though.
Nice concept, liked the art and the whole game really gets the message through how horrible depression is.
Good job, now I'm depressed.
Won the game, was enjoyable :)
Very nice game. Thank you for giving people a glampse of how a depression can crawl up and control your every move, making it nearly impossible to function. But rest assured, it is something that can be beaten, speaking from experience.
This game is phenomenal. As someone who struggles with depression myself, this really hits home. You managed to sum up the feeling very well, and I applaud you for that. The challenge initially is a bit steep, but I feel that it fits well here. Great entry and Great job!
@JavaSaurus Yeah, I think it's really hard to explain what goes on in my head, how it's constantly a battle. But with a video game I can kinda convey how that feels. Thank you :) @vilix64 I tried my best to make it too real 😂 Thank you! @Tutti Ankka I'm glad I reached my goal of the game, to convey how awful depression is, thank you! @Lecalat I'm really glad you liked it :) @Jack Hipson Everything in the mechanics and pacing of the game was intentional and calculated. Thank you :) @Poorwill @RAFFE Thank you for your nice comments :)
@Evannex Thank you!! I'm glad I was successful in my goal :)
Great game that gives a great insight into depression.
@TheLucky Thank you so much :')
This game is a very solid entry, the mood was fantastic. You're an amazing game dev, keep up the good work and never let depression defeat you. You are awesome!
@Lex thank you so much :')
