Ranked from 5 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

How have you integrated the theme "Freedom but at what cost" in your game?
"Freedom, but at what cost?" is integrated in the narrative as a criticism not only towards drug abuse and the struggles it brings, but also towards how our society treats people with addictions: even if they are free from addiction, they will always be seen as an addict, and will be treated as less than because of it. In parallel, there is also a discussion about how much time the protagonist has lost, and how they need to get rid of their old identity to be free and get a second chance at life.

Where and which 3 colors have you used?
#c40b0b, #0b0bc4 and #000000 for menu screens, UI/HUD, backgrounds (and detailing) and character sprites.
