i came back and tried again because i wanted a happy ending, the girl/monster does not seem to understand that we are more than the sum of our parts, if a human being gets broken down into parts they do not live on through a transplanted heart, they might through a transplanted brain but if i delete an ai from a pc then make a new ai the old ai is dead and is not going to keep on living, same for a human, if i was to tear up the circuits in your head but leave your body alive then you would die, if i could feed the monster with my body but continue on as a ghost with my ordinary mental state that can interact with the world perfectly fine and be seen and talk to people then i would without an issue as even though my circuitry is ruined my being would still continue, being fed to a lion causes your mortal existence to cease and therefore is called death, you get digested and when the feces are excreted it is mostly the bacteria that grew inside of you and is no longer your flesh
1000 out of 10. I played this today on my laptop and for such a simple style it's the most complex, emotional, and immersive game I've ever played. Very well done, great storyline. Like other reviews say, very depressing and yet hopeful. I absolutely recommend trying it out, and I'm looking forward to more games by this creator. I probably won't ever forget this game, it's left a print on me that I'm still not sure is depression or happiness.
dont usually comment but yeah!!!! game hit hard!! growing up in my grandmas blok i was always kinda thinking about it as this weird flesh machine we were all a part of, visuals here got actually kinda crazy accurate for most of the game, both for the slavic childhood experience and the horrors. i miss it all so much. thank you for making something so universal but also personal at the same time, and thank you for describing what ive been already felling for so long now. i also miss my childhood cat. i think i played on that exact same playground before. this game made me want to live a little more.
i did get the happy end but im not sure if there's any other endings. Also i think the system was bugging out (i was playing on chrome) because i had the 6 digit code but it either wasnt letting me enter it or smth else was wrong :(( i would've loved to see what would've come of it
also i was wondering if there was a guide ? to all the possible ends?
alot of the dialogue in this is very hopeful but depressing at the same time. I think the most memorable for me was when Nika mentioned how Lera is afraid of happiness. It just really resonated with me because ive been running away for a while too. Its scary to think how much time i've wasted running away instead of towards something better. A phenomenal game overall, i wish i could play it again the first time.
this is such a gem. I love everything about it. I love the feelings of nostalgia depicted and discussed throughout the story. I love all the references to russian culture, which I'm very fond of. the gore and the eldritch horror. and Nika!! she's so genuine. her character and personality really surprised me in a positive way. sometimes she would say the weirdest things and yet it didn't feel misplaced nor artificial. you really managed to write her in a convincing and cohese way even when she was such an oddball. the way you used AI's natural gift of generating body horror on those VHS movies was very on point too. not to mention the art, it looks soft and charming. this is on par with the greatest horror rpgmaker games out there ❤️
