more games should be about girls grappling with their mechanical umbilical cords of dubious intent.

Really incredible. Would love if pan info dumped about gardening to me :) Almost cried when her garden got destroyed :(
As a cissie boy i don't think i can talk much about this games trans stuff but i do find it to be an interesting sheltered child narrative. I related a lot to the scene where pan goes outside for the first time and is thinking about the daily lives of every random person she sees because these are the first unfamiliar faces shes seen in forever.

(part of my VNCup review series)
Really visceral and haunting, far more than I expected. The presentation was sublime - I loved the various ambient tracks that would swoop in and out, and without getting into spoilers, the art is the perfect mix of cute and horrifying.
The story itself is a bizarre fever dream of dysphoria, abuse, and loneliness that really got under my skin (pun intended). It takes an almost wish-fulfillment fantasy and tears it open to reveal all the oozing yuckiness lying within. In some ways it's an objection to certain essentialist ideas about bodies, and in others it's a true-to-life depiction of an abusive relationship driven by projection and miscommunication. It feels personal and icky, especially in the way the narrative is framed as a diary.
Overall, a fantastic work of horror yuri. Highly recommended.
