Really nice game, the writing is great, I like the little stories with the neighbors and I adore Cassius! The music and sound are also well done! Great job with this project!

Developer

this game captures the worry and anxiety of OCD so well - the use of the quest system to mix in the persistent worry with the everyday tasks, and the reduction of vision were really effective!

Developer

Hi wombok,
we're happy to know that the game mechanics have contributed to produce the hoped-for effect, and hope that the game succeeds in raising more awareness. Thank you for playing :)

Great job, guys. You managed to explain, in a very clear and even relaxing way, an issue that ruins many days and even one’s lifestyle (like how the protagonist starts wasting time on their compulsion to check if everything is okay to calm down). You have no idea how many days and good moments I've spoiled, worrying that I hadn’t locked the door, or how foolish I felt checking five times if I had closed it. The only way to break free from this loop of anxiety, in my personal experience, is to stop wasting time and energy on these obsessive thoughts and learn to trust oneself more, even if it’s hard at first. Anyway, congratulations on your game and best of luck.

Hi Axel,

You did such a great job! Every time the anxiety bar hit, I really felt it... Details like actual fire noise in the background really added to this. And the narrowing of the FOV is also nice: you really can't see much in panic. I like the contrast of the surrounding world with all of the friendly people and the obsessive thoughts with compulsive actions. In the end, it was really nice to finally get on the bus! Thank you for this experience

such a excellent implementation of the themes of this jam, i will say thought the controls on the stairs were difficult, but everything else is so good

Hi Gara,
we're so glad you liked the game and thank you for playing. We implemented mouse hold click in order to decrease this problem and permit to move continuously through the stairs. I hope this didn't take too much away from the overall experience :)
