absolutely brutalized me. bawling in bed with the lights out at 1am playing this game. the way the narrative unfolds bit (heh) by bit is devastatingly effective, and the simplicity of the game's presentation belies the depth of its emotional themes. dr. signal's strange machine honestly helped me find my hope in the dying world we're living in now; no small feat. i can't wait to see what you do with these narrative design chops next.
