Z or J to interact/advance text

hi, i didn't watch your video but i'll answer your question in two ways.

So literally what happens in the story is a transgender kid who has a bad relationship with their mother finds out that their mom (who they haven't seen in years) replaced them with an android of them pre-transition. they kill their mom after confronting them. the detective investigating the murder goes home to her own child android, who is a replacement for her dead child that she also had a bad relationship with. the detective shoots her android, feeling the guilt of replacing her child with a "ideal" version of her child.

On a deeper level, it's about someone being replaced by someone else's "ideal" of what they want that person to be. There are a lot of specific points of inspiration I had writing this, from AI image generators stealing people's artwork, to my own relationship with my mom. It's not intended to be a "trans story" specifically (I think feeling unseen or disrespected by people you care about is a universal experience) but I bet most people saying it hit close to home in the comments are trans or gay people who understand the feeling of your parents or loved ones not really seeing you for who you are, rather seeing you as they want to see you.

if you’re asking if we made faith, no that was airdorf

yup, all our games run on original hardware. i even have physical copies of a couple myself

there are only two endings, and you die in both

Z is A/Confirm on PC

thank you! yeah, just the two. though there is one very minor additional line of text if you can somehow escape to the edges of the screen when you’re outside. not intended to be another ending, more a “just in case” if you aren’t caught (which is the intended event when leaving the house)

i don't have a chromebook, but try pressing Z or J

i'd never read this before until you posted this, but it was fantastic. glad i'm not the only one thinking about the wonderful dystopia ahead of us.

this was made in game boy studio https://www.gbstudio.dev/

talking to the neighbours is entirely optional

just uploaded a pocket ver, please let me know if there's any issues with it. enjoy

Once you get an ending, when you are sent back to the title screen, there will be an Endings Counter in the top right

Added fullscreen. Hope you enjoy!

shoot as soon as the animation changes
