This was an intriguing glimps in a futuristic world and interesting character, which made me repeat the game a few time to get more information.

I loved that the protagonists introduced themselves with their pronouns, always makes me happy. And I appreciated the content warning.

Maybe the options for the answers are somewhat on the short side. I'm not sure if it's because English is not my native language, but sometimes the protagonist didn't say, what I would have expected with the given keyword.

This felt like a nice peek into a sci-fi world! I enjoyed the dialog and a small scene to dig into. I wound up getting two different endings, but I wonder if there’s a “best” ending.

In any case, I enjoyed reading your story, great work!

The dialogue is really chef kiss!
It was so tense, the deeper you get into the reasons for wanting the procedure...

This was really cool! Great take on using cybernetic eyes for the theme, I liked how this scene manages to be both fantastical and familiar at the same time. Your dialogue was all great, had just the right balance of tension and curiosity as I was reading. But I think my actual favorite line was the one about Nishtar's posture and balancing everything on their head. Made me smile. :) Nice work!

Incredible! This had the energy of a stage play: two characters sat across from one another, slowly prodding at each other, revealing complexities one line at a time, masses of subtext hanging between them. I played multiple times to explore each character further! 

Nishtar's an interesting character, and the back and forth between them and the PC feels really natural. I did three playthroughs, choosing to be unapologetic, then neutral (and denying the procedure), then being timid, and I enjoyed seeing what's a bit of a power play. It's subtle. I really liked it. Nice job!

Fantastic story. It felt complete with good pacing. The choices gave me a feel for who my character is while still giving me autonomy to chose some direction. The style and fade effect is beautiful. It made reading easy and also added to the feel of the game.

Only thing I was curious about was what mods my character had and how they use them in their life. They seemed to assume mods were purely for employment purposes. I assumed I had one that let me type faster, or do something really boring more efficiently. I’d like to see it in action. I also want to know what the stakes are for turning down the mod application. 

Best narration thus far! 

I liked it! A very cohesive, nice little scene that painted a very compelling picture of a future world. I liked our mod-obsessed character, there was interesting depth there - although I would've loved a little more friction and fight at the end if you decide not to recommend the procedure (gotta crack that perfect exterior somehow, right?). Good job!

really like the pieces here. everything has intention and as you play you spiral outside of the presented info and into other ideas that are hinted at. the interactions are subtle and obscure enough to encourage real play. very nice

A focused and cohesive little scene.  Seems like you see more of the core thematic content if you play the more asshole/gatekeeper-y run; I missed a lot of it on my first playthrough trying to be less invasive.

No matter how much I tried to be nice, I couldn't get an ending where the client didn't seem at least a bit annoyed at me.  A commentary on how even the most well-meaning individuals in these sorts of gatekeeper roles are still part of a systemically flawed system, maybe?
