I’m impressed by how precisely targeted at the self-flagellation (white) folks tend to do online. Matching the Protestant schism and the in-fighting in social media spaces is really, really novel. I know I am going to think about this game and share it with people.
As someone who is also not white, this really hit. I see you. I see us. I see them and us, the fetishized among the suffering, the suffering among the fetishizers. Thank you.
I thought this was really unique and explored its themes in a really interesting and evocative way. Since playing the game I haven't been able to stop thinking about it. The connection between protestant fruitless search for some kind of purity, the ultimately self serving penance of prayer etc and the juxtaposition with certain online trans space neuroses was actually genius. I also really like the visual and audio presentation with the different 'timelines' if u will being colourcoded, and the use of a dog clicker sfx was a nice touch. Really fantastic narrative game.

this is one of the craziest games ive ever played (in a good way)
like i thought theres no way puppygirls could have anything to do with orientalism but lo and behold it did
absolute flame i hope it wins Best Use of Short Form AND Best Story-Focused Game it deserves both of those and more
This was simply amazing. I feel like I'll be thinking about it for a while. Thank you for making it and sharing it.
