A very interesting game, the theme is well developed and clear. I would have liked to have had a little more gameplay and more characterizing graphics. In any case I recommend it!
As someone who deals with depression daily, these messages nearly made me tear up. The game was amazing don't get me wrong. These messages...are for the people that really need to hear them, me being one of those people. Thank you for making this
I played the steam version and I gotta say, it was very well done. When I finished it, I couldn't really put it into words. Good luck with what you have next.
I was playing games on itch.io while eating and came across this and it was amazing! good job, I loved the panning from the window and the music you wake up to when it's raining and while drunk! wish it lasted more or had more small interactions. Thank you for this<3
1. how tf are you depressed when you have room this cool? 2. being depressed doesn't justify you being an asshole, its not hard to leave a message lmao
1) material things are meaningless when you are depressed
2) when someone is depressed, something so simple as leaving a message can be seen as insurmountable.
I'm sad you didn't like the game, but as someone who clearly hasn't experienced depression in their lives, maybe this can help you to be more open and understanding whenever someone you love is going through it. Take care
Thank you so much for playing and sharing your experience! I'm sorry it made you cry haha but it makes me happy to see it helped. You will definitely get out of the rut, trust :)
I played this for fun, but then realized how perfect it depicts depression + isolation. I've struggled with depression since I was ~8 years old, and throughout all these years I've never really been able to put it into words, but this matches it perfectly. The disappointment and anger that come with it, its always so confusing. The message is really strong, I enjoyed this game a lot !! :3
Thank you so much. It makes me so happy to see other people connecting to it, it's hard for me as well but knowing that other people share the feeling helps a lot. Thank you :)
it was short but really good, i really enjoyed playing this game and really hit it me where it hurt because of how relatable and realistic it was. you did a great job portraying all of this and the sweet ending wrapped it up so nicely. Keep making games ! :)
Thank you frankie! I'm glad you enjoyed playing it and connected with the message, means a lot to me. I just released the game on steam last week, so if you feel like leaving a review there I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you again!
Thank you very much for playing Eyz! Appreciate the stream as well. I just released the game on Steam, so if you'd like to leave a review over there, I would greatly appreciate. Thanks again!
Exactly! Thank you so much for playing! I just released the game on Steam, so if you'd like to leave a review over there, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks again!
Thank you for the words. It's like a hug to the soul, thank you very much for saying that. I just released the game on Steam, so if you'd like to leave a review over there, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks again!
I would imagine the spider is a metaphor of the building depression the main character is experiencing throughout the ordeal (the more isolated the MC made themselves and depressed they felt, the bigger the spider became up to a breaking point).
The spider having disappeared becoming the point where the MC turns their life around and accepts help from their friends who were there from the beginning of their downward spiral (Worst case scenario for most people that feel so isolated that they have no one to turn to would be to just speedrun their life and be done with it).
I played your game at 45:35, I thought it was really interesting I had fun playing it, I understand why the "Horror" is in quotes though, not too scary and I have arachnophobia. Overall a pretty cool game with a good message about making sure to take care of yourself.
I love this game and I would like to volunteer to translate that game into Turkish so that my Turkish friends can play that game. How can I contact you? I will be waiting for your reply as soon as possible.
Hi! Do you mean translating the subtitles or the whole voice over? If it's the subtitles I can probably make a version just for you and your friends :) Thank you for playing, I'm glad you want to share it.

game is not good overall imo
1) material things are meaningless when you are depressed
2) when someone is depressed, something so simple as leaving a message can be seen as insurmountable.

Thank you! I'm happy it made you feel things. The game is now on steam if you feel like leaving a review there! Thanks again for playing!
How about age rating? Im 13, is it ok to play?
If you don't mind spiders and a bit of cursing, you should be fine :)

Thought you should know this person stole your game - My friend 1 spider by LocalBreaker (itch.io)
I already reported them, you should too

No problem!
Good game
