How does your game fit the theme?
The player doesn't have control of the game. The main character doesn't really have control of their mind. It's a brief glimpse into the helplessness of anxiety and depression.

A very creative take on the prompt. From the subtle ambient sounds to the simulated text entry, there's a lot to appreciate in this one.
nice and challenging game good job
Very thoughtful and poetic piece you submitted. Very clever visualizations and stuff. Nice job
It's a very interesting concept. I like how the mini games match the conversation and help convey the feelings.
Great take on the theme! Very weird feeling experience, really intense.
This is easily one of the most unique takes on the prompt. It's refreshing to see something introspective with visualizations of how things actually feel.
The core game mechanics are exactly the kind of effects I wanted to see from this Jam; the player character fighting against the player adds a layer of humanization often lost in video games. Whereas struggling to get a protagonist to do what you want usually rips you out of the role of the character, in this case it actually immerses you by forcing you to feel exactly the way they would feel. You aren't just pretending to be them; you are being their mind for them.
It's overwhelming and fascinating all at once. Also, the text input mechanic is perfect. In fact there are several technical aspects like that which are essentially what I was going for in my submission but don't have the programming experience to achieve in 48 hours.
Really great : ) exactly what I want out of a game jam!
that was intense. thank you
