Here's another game I played as a kid, really liked it, but put it down because I found it a bit overwhelming. But coming back to it as an adult, it's much, much easier, which isn't a bad thing. I think that the way the game describes its mechanics sometimes can make them a little more confusing than they actually are, which is probably my only gripe with the game. The art direction is practically unparalleled, it's hard to think of another platformer from the time that was this stylised without sacrificing anything. I also think the way this game deals with mental illness and trauma is really commendable, there were some pretty serious topics here, and they managed to have fun all while recognizing the real world implications they have. I'll be very impressed if the sequel can live up to this one
