Supported Swery65 due to my love of Deadly Premonition, not knowing what to expect from this. Found a beautiful and bloody puzzle game with a plot supported by its mechanics that tell a story of a gay transgender woman's efforts to navigate the early stages of a relationship, her identity, and her relationships with family and friends. With its short length it explores more themes through narrative, metaphors, and mechanics focused around societal violence deterring you from becoming who you are in a more frank way than usual, telling a violent story on queer existence without the expected exploitative content and conclusion often found in similar media. Great soundtrack.

I think we are missing a point here too... I think the game is also telling us that, everything has its consequences, you can either accept who you are, but be ready to be hated by most, or BE who you were made to be and never get what you want.
sorry, I played the game, and tbh... I stopped playing after I found out what the story really is, and me not being an LGBT person, I can't relate nor make any comment about this game.
cause, this game is made for the...idk how to put it, ppl that are in similar position, altho I wish the story was better like, teaching other ppl that ARE NOT LGBT to respect those who are or something like that,
but overall...good game, fun, and entertaining puzzles.
PS: sorry but I think I failed to understand what this game is trying to teach/tell us.
is it saying? accept and move on? orrrrr???
