The music reminds me of the Amelie soundtrack for some reason. Beautiful work, well done.

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it.

It's a custom chip-tune version of Gymnopedie No. 1 by Erik Satie. I cut notes of the song randomly and added them to different tracks. As you progress through the game, the tracks start playing, so when you reach the end, you can hear the full song.

Although sometimes the tracks de-sync. It's a nice bug feature :)

Amazing! :D

This truly represents what depression is. It’s terrible and not fun at all. Keep making good art my dude!

This game seriously was depression, I never looked at video games as a means of being able to relay mental health and I know it's a simple game but it was very impactful thank you for creating this.

Sincerely, calculatornumbers

Thank you for this game. The feeling that we get here is astonishing. Truly a piece of art.

At stage 09 I really can't understand the obstacle on the first try because I just press up (and I was probably lucky because the key was correct). But I play again because this game is unique.

Thank you for the feedback!! Really appreciate it!

I hope you are OK. I didn't mean to make you feel bad, just to let you know that we all feel like this sometimes.

Beautiful music and a short sobering experience that accurately conveys familiar feelings of empty hopelessness.
