Oh wow. Congrats. They are lucky to have you on the team and now I'm looking forward to both games.

First game I've played in a while that made me hunch over like it was a boss fight. I needed to see this through. What a thrilling twist on the typing game.

This is exceptional on so many levels! Without a doubt the best autobiographical game I've played.

Very grimy capitalism aesthetic. Reminds me of Cruelty Squad, Perfect World. That intentional glitchy look mixed with the endless pursuit of growth. 

This is incredible. Beautiful visual style. Love the esoteric vibes. Will be coming back to this regularly to unlock the mysteries of the universe.

Beautiful. Thanks for sharing. Having the option to not fish between all the bad catches added a lot of weight to the writing. Excellent work.

Love the design. Will there be a 2026 version? Trying to go more analog with all my daily things.

Incredible. The repetition works soo well here. That final wish made me tear up.

Kinda reminds of of https://wriks.itch.io/sywar

Even the poster art is similar vibe

item list is wild. I love it

Thank you Kevin for the kind words! I like your suggestion. It feels like a nice hard punctuation mark at the end of the experience. All my games do this, and it feels right to put it here too. I updated the build with this now and added you to the credits.

Thanks or playing! Can understand the feeling. This took a lot of physical and mental strength to make as I needed to expose myself to the flashing for two days 😬

Share your thoughts in this thread. The intention behind this is to allow everyone to go into the experience without the thoughts/videos of others morphing your individual experience. I do really appreciate it when people share their thoughts. Please be aware of the following:

- A human made this. A human will read this. Be kind.
- Please leave a review if you enjoyed it.

Thank you for playing

PS -  the number 0 key will set spawn mode to 100% from the start. Please use responsibly.

Thank you for playing!

Love what you did with camera frame. Having bits of conversation highlighting the flow of time until the end, and the camera clinging on to a frozen present. But time still ticks, the clock changes, your battery is dying...time is moving. The end is still coming. Great little experience!

Haunting, yet a magical and calming experience. Great music. Reminds me of the hopeless yet peaceful atmosphere of the campfires in the Stalker games.

Lovely. I've been making game poems with bitsy and it's such a perfect engine for it. Great video (and nice lighting and framing!)

Hello. Yes, the camera shake is intentional

Sound effects and timing of the music worked really well here!

There will be an ::ephemera every year. All with a similar but unique style in their own way.

Incredible. Such a visual delight and a reminder to cherish the memories that get lost in the noise of life.

I rolled it real good. I like the level design. Reminds me of a Halo CE map.

This actually takes some physical effort so probably the most realistic farming game to exist.

This is so much fun. Loaded with delight. Simple mechanic with a depth of personality.

I want to buy more ctrl presses. DLC jump button too please.

Oh god, it happened to you too?

Spoilers below
The silence in the room when me and my partner missed the shot. We were devastated in a way I've never experienced before in a game.

I sacrificed 65 seconds. I like experiences that touch on our relation to time. 65 seconds of my time were in full focus for this project that took 10800 seconds to make.

Edit - Got a new speedrun record of 59 seconds. (Total sacrifice time now 2 minutes and 4 seconds).

This is solid comedy. The character suddenly zooming past the window as I struggle with controlling their direction made me chuckle. And then just the thought of someone running in circles around an empty home. Like maybe they live in the beautiful countryside but running inside is the best choice for them. Then closer inspection I see its a mo-cap suit he's wearing so maybe he's just at work making running animations for a game. Maybe it's for this game :O

I explored this for over 2 hours and it was really moving. Extremely intimate and raw. There's a range of emotion in these confessions. I was struck by such vivid descriptions of how strange our bodies are. Like machines that need to be maintained, repaired, remade, recalled. Each body with its own expansive history attempting to navigate confined perceptions and expectations. 

"Why are we denied the freedom to come into our own, to craft our physical form into a body that is reflective of the soul? Why is the knowledge of our existence hidden, suppressed, exterminated, time and time again? Why must we struggle to unearth our history, to gain recognition and the peace to live authentically"

I'll be coming back to this experience regularly. It's a reminder that an ideal world is still in-progress, but collective struggle and realizations can often be a comforting and hopeful voice in a confusing world.
 

Beautiful experience. This really captured that calming slowness that exists when the subtle movements of life become contemplative. It's subtle, quiet. Like watching someone breath.  Each scene moving through perception like a gentle breeze. I look forward to trying more of your games.

This is really cool! Instantly thought of Powers of Ten and how it captured that feeling of awe and grandeur. Nice fun remix on the concept.

Woah this looks incredible. Looking forward to playing this. Will make sure to use the special headphones I keep in the glass case for this one.

Nothing has changed. We aren't living in a promised future. There is no old harsh era. It's the same primitive world with the same violent oppressors. Thank you for making this.

One of the greatest feelings in life is finding community. Thanks for sharing.

Woah, this is a really cool way to engage with the works in a museum.

Hella good game

I spun and I spun and I spun and I spun and I spun and I won?
