Shoutout to unconventional games about the trans experience with weird graphics, gotta be one of my favorite genders.

A cutting little story... I guess I'd call it a cautionary tale, in a way? The game was harsh but it rang true to events we see happen often in the queer community, which should be a place of beauty but is unfortunately sandbagged down with so much pain. The dissonance between the cutesy Y2K web chat aesthetic and the tragic events depicted worked well to highlight this, showing that deep pain and darkness can lurk beneath us even when we try to present a bright face to the world. We have to try to be stronger, even a little bit, every day.
