It's not really a spoiler that the game is a meta-narrative with the developer pretty blatantly screaming at you when you don't follow instructions within the first 15 minutes. This is very much in the vein of something like Pony Island where the fourth wall breaks are the content. But IMO this is a far less interesting and more banal version of this genre. It's not saying anything more than "oh making games is hard" and "I'm an asshole". It's also made pretty weak with the narrator in English clearly not delivering his lines that well and sounding like he's reading from a script. Something like "The Beginner's Guide" is far more engaging and actually has a lot to say. Maybe this was unique at the time cause the game is 7 years old but right now, the genre is fairly crowded.
