CNs for Space Funeral: graphic wounds, gore, child abuse, body horror, sui*
An intoxicating and mysterious RPG that muddles through broad thoughts on suicidal ideation and how one comes to understand what society thinks of their worth. The look and soundscape of this game are extremely evocative formal embellishments on a very conventional approach. What is an extremely straight path frequently compels you to take in the bloody decaying sights. The world is deeply confusing but you know how to continue walking forward. Equipment seems to do nothing and sickeningly absurd weakness mechanics exist but really don't matter when you can crit every third attack. A thin and uncomfortable shell of a world trickles down to every gear of the game.
I'm pretty up and down on thecatamites and extremely at arms length when it comes to this kind of disaffected, individualistic, abstracted, and nihilistic depiction of the world that hangs over games from a supposed left, but Space Funeral is precise and throbbing and oozing and maddening. You'd think it'd be lame as shit for someone to read Baudelaire over your RPG dungeon traversal, but I'm here to tell you that it's sick as shit.
