After the game ceasing to work on two separate emulators, I've decided the game is physically and spiritually refusing to let me finish it, but I managed about 2/3s of an entire playthrough.

Genuinely one of the single most baffling games I have ever played. The rare bad game that is truly as bad as everyone says it is. Nonsensical, confusing, unpredictable, and designed by total maniacs. It must be seen to be believed.
