LD22 — Alone

I used to speak to the wall by Gib 2011-12-22T15:24:00

Schizophrenia and DID are often mixed up because the symptoms are rather close, though there's indeed a difference. Maybe this could clears things a little bit :

The "Confusion or disturbance with identity" paragraph shows the most patent differences. Based on these statements, I'd say this game is about Dissociative Disorder.

Phew ! After a few map generations, I'v finally managed to beat the game, I really enjoyed it overall, it was a nice experience.

Restrictive visuals and oppressive atmosphere, with quite a few mysteries ton unveil. The footprints and multicharacters idea works really great, it helps to construct a mental image of the landscape before getting the map. The only think the game lacks is a music, or sound ambiance in general (like some random 8 bit wind) : though it might be on purpose to accentuate the harshness of the game, I think it could have helped the player to immerse in the bland setting.

The exploration in itslef made me think of a more quick and edgy version of japanese games like Yume Nikki and derived fangames. The good thing here is that the map is generated randomly each time, inducing strong replay value, and the many items serve a definite purpose to unlock the endgame.

Well done !
