I enjoyed the feeling of trying to gradually get out of the fairly meticulously drawn spiral of thoughts, etc., while walking through the streets of Tokyo!
I lived in Tokyo a few years ago, and most of the places I walked were places I had walked before. I liked thinking about things while walking from Shibuya to Yoyogi Park, so this piece really surprised me and made me think about a lot of things.
The scene connecting the sake dedicated on the approach to the Meiji Shrine and the physical meaning with the physical meaning was very interesting, as I had only thought of it as a beautiful display of sake from all over Japan. It was very interesting,
I regret a little that I let You drink Strong Zero!
Thank you for finding time to play it, and I’m glad you liked it and streamed it!
As someone who has been struggling with this for a while, it was really comforting to have Guy give me advice and guide me. Thank you.
I'm glad it helped!
This whole game was an experience. It's the type of game one comes back to now and then. For a second, I thought the game dev was stalking me with how relatable the MC's past was (lol). I really liked it, though; it was overall an exciting and thought-provoking game. I'm glad I tried it out!
I'm glad that it left you thinking... makes me think I did something right!
this was really intense at parts but good. glad there was the choice to meet up with the friend in the end!
Thank you so much!
