Sowwy! *cybermental hugs*

New version of the game is now out. You can find the download link in the first post. Thank you all for the feedback and the comments! Still a short game. I thought adding a save feature was needed but the timing for the game is about the same so it wasn't needed. I am finally glad to be done with Friend as complete game.

That game is like a nice crisper treat to my neurons.

I've never seen anything like this. This game is so unique!

I just wanted to ask, if you're interested in a german translation. I just discovered this game and have some free time to do some work .

Hey there! I hope you don't mind, but I did a play through of your game! Thank you so much for making it. It was wonderful!

I dunno why I was thinking of Friend too recently.


Addendum;


I saw the end.  Hope it wasn't autobiographic!  And you have a wonderful life.  Thanks for bringing that subject up in such a way and spread awareness.

Hey, I was intrigued by your game because the title of it is the same as a poem I once I wrote, and after playing it, deals with similar issues (although I'd say your game is a bit darker than my poem).   


Anyway, I really appreciate the work that was put into this, but unfortunately I have to leave a negative review.  I found the puzzles incredibly frustrating; not even just the puzzles but the fact that you don't even know where to go and at times it seems you're just stuck, i actually was fairly convinced that my game was bugged and i had to restart it from the beginning, and I only was able to finish by following Aero's Let's Play.  I pressed on because everyone kept talking about this emotional reward at the end, but it didn't happen for me.  I didn't understand the ending until you mentioned the issue after the credits, and I never developed any emotional attachment to the friend because I too just found him to be creepy.   


I won't say this game is TOTALLY bad though, there were moments of genuine intrigue...I just felt overwhelmed by the frustration of being unable to progress, and I didn't feel it was due to my own shortcomings, but rather the game's.
