Beautifully heartbreaking. Amazing take on the theme, like others have said the looping really adds to the feeling of total monotonous apathy.

Great art, great music, great everything really. Except the controls, it was a bit tough for me to remember which arrow key did what. I haven't really played anything with a similar control scheme. I'd probably gravitate to Arrow Keys + Z and X.

All in all though like I said, I love this game.

Had to give it 5 stars in all categories, I really like this game. In such a short time, it portrays the dynamics of a toxic relationship so well, and the looping section just makes me feel that apathy within Lauren during lockdown. The fact that the loop itself was used as a means to build character, was mind-blowing. It makes me understand Lauren's character, the feelings that lead to such abusive actions.

This was simply beautiful. The fact that only 12 people rated it is criminal, you deserve way more. Maybe because people are reluctant to download an .exe?
