Once Clover Died

Comphurt looks so cool. love the “wolf in sheep’s clothing” aspect.

this is so neat, their designs are so cool as well!

This is the first time I've played a game that represents obsessive compulsive disorder so well. Really well done! The artstyle was also very pretty.

That was... Adorable? Simbolic? Beautiful? I dunno, but I LOVED IT

i love the design sm, especially velvet's design, keep up!

I have diagnosed OCD and PTSD and the fear and trauma really play into the OCD so much. And so much of the time when I add a new thing I have to do all the time or over and over etc. I don't even realize it until it's way too late because in the moment it makes SO much sense. Like of course I have to tap my forehead in sets of 4 if I accidentally touch my chin or just think I touched near my chin, obviously that makes sense. Recently I've realized that instead of having to wash the faucet before I wash my hands I've been having to wash it before and after I wash my hands once and then wash my hands a second or maybe third or fourth time (although the obsessive handwashing is something I've had since I was a kid along with a lot of other things). It's very frustrating and very stressful, I'm trying to work through some of the smaller things but it's so hard when it's so stressful and it makes me feel better to just do the action even if it's silly or excessive and so often many of the actions still feel like it makes sense even if I know realistically they're a little silly. Anyways, I hope you're doing okay and getting through things okay, I hear it can get better eventually.

Also I love the character designs, they're all so cute

Always love your stuff, the character design here is especially good! While i thankfully don't have OCD, i can somewhat relate it to some of my own experience during covid (had to put lotion to stop my hands from bleeding due to excessive washing), especially the bit where the knock on the door is added, it's quite interesting how your brain can just suddenly decide something is bad or dirty even when you rationally know it isn't.

Love this new game and it was so pretty !

Thank you for making this game, even though it's short I found it very impactful! I always appreciate seeing people just creating things from their own genuine feelings and perspectives ;w;
I'm not diagnosed with OCD, but I struggle with severe anxiety and a lot of the aspects in this hit close to home and I sure relate to creating art in order to process thoughts and emotions, so I hope this helped you as well <3

I was diagnosed with OCD about 6 years ago and...I don't even have words. I feel touched, sad, emotional, happy and I guess...seen. Which is a cheesy thing to say but I feel "seen" by this. Some of the lines and scenes really made my breath hitch in my throat for how relatable they were.  I think this game is not only very beautifully made, it's a very important game both for giving a bit of a window into what it's like to have OCD, providing some perspective and less alone-ness for those living with it (imo) and I truly hope it helped you process that difficult time and made the struggles even a little bit lighter. 

Really love their designs especially Comphurt and the reason why he's designed the way he is. :D and I really like how OCD is portrayed in the game that explains well how having OCD feels like.

i dont have ocd but clover is so relatable omg... amazing work as always

This captures OCD so well, i hope this vent has helped you feel less stressed! i know its not a horror game but i got jumpscared like 5 times 

Really nice game, it was really cute, and I'm glad it helped you went. I also liked Comphurt being an actual wolf in sheep's clothing

This was lovely! Obviously there's a lot of depth here, but the one thing I want to say is the art is great. The character design, the contrast in the living spaces. It's very well done and I'm glad it has helped you vent :)

As always, good writing and art. I'm sorry you have to go through all this stress lately but I'm glad you're getting some of it off your chest. I wish you happiness in the future!!

Also, I like Comphurt being a literal wolf in sheep's clothing. I felt like such a fool when I didn't pick up on it the first run

Lovely little game! Amazing work as always. The storytelling did really get the emotions across and was very easy to understand and feel for. I truly hope that you are able to adjust to things a bit better in the future and hopefully feel better than you have been. I see your struggles, and I wish you the best. Despite what you've been going through, the game was a wonderful little playthrough and I absolutely adored Clovers design/sprites! Stay strong S.F, you got this :)

OMG So awesome! I have OCD and blind played it on my channel, and it's AMAZING. Five stars if I could, another stunning game from my favorite dev <3

Velvet's a real one

very enjoyable

I really enjoyed this! Thank you for creating it

I like about the game and the nightmare keeps on repeating i hope i would recommend playing this again next time

i have ocd this game captures this perfectly

alright alright.

first of all, i must say i am not familiar with OCD. of course I've learns bits and pieces of it on the internet, but never anything quite as clear as what this game has.

having it personalized as the two wolves was honestly a clever way of storytelling, also helped me understand the thing a bit more.

that aside, honestly, i liked this as a game.

as always arcade's character design is spot-on, i love them, and the story itself is short but intresting.

so, overall, one of the best short games i've played.

also, i won't just jump to conclusion, but is the wrong end portraying that if you just do what your brain tells you and nothing else, you no longer 'live' and only 'exist'? if i'm wrong, sorry.

Great Story!!
First time knowing about this disorder
Hope it got better for you!!!

when i saw you posted a new game I got super excited! I love your work so much!

very well done, I have some forms of OCD myself so I know how it feels, things will get better for you I'm very sure of it.
