Shit I've been meaning to comment here for a while but I wanted to do it when I finally got around to playing the game... (haven't been on computer for a while)

I love this environment, the gaudy frames and tiered spinning floors... all the floating descriptions... IDK if it's just the ashtrays or wha but it definitely feels somewhat somber to me... like I imagine picking up after her, helping her clean up. Helping preserve the space. It's also funny to have a person w a gun shooting at stuff, in a ways its like doing that FPS thing will make the game more appealing or give it a better chance at being interacted with... or preserved... if that makes sense. I'm just speculating/brainvomiting ofc!! not at all trying to assume your intentions behind anything. Those r just my feelies.

On a different note, the day you posted this it made me think to try and find my dad's old website. I had tried before using internet archive and I could never find it. But I looked it up again and somehow it was there, and I was so surprised. He died back in 2002 so it was wild to be able to find it!! 

Anyway I hope to spend more time w this, it's cool! Sorry for the huge block of text!!!

Wow I'm glad this motivated you to find your dad's site, that's super cool! Thru the ashtrays and FPS mechanics I was thinking of morbid/somber ways to depict my memory of her death, how family love is complicated and bittersweet, etc. It's funny to me how some people feel bad for shooting at these paintings, even though all the bullets do is disappear and reveal the paintings' titles. My aunt and grandma (who collected her paintings) were/are religious so I was also considering the history of desecrating art.

I am interested in art-preservation (especially in the digital age) so this project serves as a cheeky exploration of that lol...but also as a cute thing to keep for myself + my family. At first I was worried my grandparents would be offended but they actually really liked the game. My grandma even gave me a picture book of paintings my aunt has never shown or sold, so I will add some of those to this game!
