Vexlia <3
played this again today and think its just so great, really interesting use of bitsy < 3
thank you so much, nilson <3
This turned out to be deeper than I expected
what r the main characters prns ??
also i love this sm very neat little game
thx!!! :33 in my mind its pronouns are it/its but you can choose other pronouns for yellow if you want to relate more to the protagonist :)
ok cool ty!!
I loved this! Most relatable game I've ever played
this is so sweet!! tysm <3
this is absolutely incredible. especially the way that misgendering feels, the moving words, the commentary on shedding names like snakeskin? this is what i needed. this felt a little bit like being transported into this convenience store for a few minutes. and the end? a little bit of a breath of fresh air, the first one in a long time
this is so cool <3 i love that i have reached you and your experiences with this little game <3
this was gorgeous!!!
thx! i'm glad you liked it :33
fuckin amazing
<3 <3 <3 means a lot!!
There is so much here, just sitting below pixels. Just when I thought I knew what to expect I went inside a magazine cover. When I thought I knew what was coming there were a dozen new backgrounds.
A surreal delight.
Really cute! Good job. Very relatable. Out of curiosity, did you use pico 8?
Thank you so much!!
No I only used Bitsy, but pico 8 looks very interesting :)
Oh right! I forgot about bitsy! That's rad!
