This Theme6 was a very Theme6 Theme6, and I especially liked the Theme6 where you went to find the Theme6 but ran into a Theme6 instead. A few Them6 though:
Theme6
Very Harold, will be hard to top. I am blessed this was my first entry to play.
Had to play this one on my phone because I just couldn't not play it.
Gameplay: I tapped my phone screen a few times.
Combat: The only combat here is Harold's inner struggle.
Comedy: Human Harold is best Harold.
Sound: MY EEEAARRRSSSSS
Visuals: Not much more Harold than good ol' RTP.
Story: It's Harold and there's definitely a dead end.
Wait, the song is coming from...the sound effects!?! What have you done, Human? 😂
The anticipation I felt while waiting for
the gamethis gem to load was not in vain. Long story short I lol'dWell, at I know why you named it, "Harold and the Dead End."
I'm gonna hear this song in my head while I'm trying to mf sleep, WHY
xD
Riveting gameplay and plot. Excellent choice of music. Harold / 10.

Theme 6 electric boogaloo part 2.
Theme 6. All the theme 6!
I wish I had time to add more!
I don't know if it's a bug in the browser version or a feature but Theme6 starts playing again (on top of Theme6) every time you press a key on the title screen.
I'm gonna assume it was a feature given the tone of the game.
That said, holy cow I was rolling from this one. You got me!
THERE ARE NO BUGS IN THIS GAME
This is a tough one to score, it treads that fine line between madness and genius.
An accurate commentary on commercial RPG Makers one regularly finds on Itch and Steam.
You're telling me this is worth a commercial release?! High praise. High praise indeed.
$2 game right there.
