Got completely sucked into the world of this game. I enjoyed the writing and characters, with their multitude of arcs and varying responses to different scenarios, and the amount of different interactions and alternate paths I could have taken towards certain routes makes it fun for replays and experimentation. The world just felt so fully realized, I loved just wandering around experiencing things and stumbling upon little details I didn't notice earlier. It's a hell of a counterpoint to 12 Minutes, with essentially the same general concept but far more effective in its writing and execution. Things follow logically here; there isn't the same need that 12 Minutes seemed to have to provide shock value with its convoluted, meaningless plot. It's not a perfect game, but it resonated with me in just the right ways - I adore it. I wish more games could do this sort of Majora's Mask approach to a fleshed out, relatively compact yet full and vibrant world... timeloop not necessary, but appreciated.

Also, did any any% speedrun time of 3 minutes and 15 seconds. One of the only times in my life I'll ever be able to say that, probably!
