I went to the store and tried to send an email. Ending was where I really got into it. Thanks for making it

Nice bit of everyday surreality. I really want those people to leave my lawn.

I am glad I replayed this game at home. I could not really get into the story at the event due to happy social noises. Playing at home, with nice background music and sun shining into the room made me so relaxed i found myself drifting away. That is not a bad thing - same thing happened to me when playing Coffee Talk - felt so relaxing I just fell asleep. Tried picking up different options at home from the ones I picked at the event just to see what else is there.

I am still confused by the ending, even though you explained it to me at the event. 😅

Introspective, I like it,  the story could have used a little more time to breath though.

thank you! it's written to be absurdist so the breathing is more in replaying; it's its own puzzle though in the end... there is only ekleipo
