So... It might be kind of unnecessary, but I'll write it.

My name is Sofia, I'm Brazilian and I'm 15 years old.

I've had suicidal thoughts since I was eleven, I've been doing sh since I was 10 and I've had 13 attempts (one of them being this year.)

This game really hit me hard, because it talks about a supposed "lover", that's how I understand it. (I'm not fluent in English)

I have a boyfriend. Perfect. He's perfect for me, and he takes away my desire to die, but even so, I'm a horrible person and sometimes I end up hurting him. I have thought about dying, even though I am with him. One of those thoughts came to me today. I was about to hurt myself when a gaming website appeared to me.

This game made me rethink a bit and made me cry a lot.


Thank you, person who made this game. We don't know each other and probably never will, but you are very needed. ♡

And thank you to anyone who is reading this little waste of time.


Remember: there are people who care and love you more than you can imagine. You are important :)

I wish you the best ❤ life is beautiful

I hope you stick around Sofia. Theres so much left to uncover in the world.

I feel I would do this ngl (I literally am thinking of commiting, though my friends are trying to convince me not to.)

:( you have so much to live for, its really not worth it to take all that away from yourself.

(+1)

please dont

(+2)

honestly, its genuinely not worth it. suicide is a permanent solution to temporary problems. nothing lasts forever and I know because I've thought about it aswell and you have people that love and care for you, trying to help and reassure you. please contact someone and don't ever think you have to resort to taking your own life. its not worth it. please trust me

I hope everyone here is doing okay these days. Please be safe and know that people care about you, even if it may not feel like it at times. If you are feeling troubled, maybe professional help is the answer, or talking to a trusted friend about what you are going through. Wish you the best.

this was an amazing experience. really brought back all the memories. 10/10

As someone who was suicidal once, this brought back a lot of emotions I forgot about. Thanks for the experience.

It's great game, but I'd make one small correction. (My OCD iscoming out... Lol)

Unless you prefer going through the painfully long and expensive process to purchase an automatic rifle (aka assault rifle), the semi-automatic is by far the most common rifle in the US wherever it's legal. It'd make more sense to use the term "semi-automatic" versus just "automatic."

Other than that, it's a pretty dark, but interesting story on psychological problems people face with grief.

不知道怎么开始(。ヘ°)

このゲームは美しく書かれています。

数年前、親友が自殺しました。

涙が止まりませんでした。これを経験しなければならなかった人には申し訳ありません。

(+4)(-1)

this was sad... the ending makes me feel.... i dont know, it makes me nervous. the beauty of psychological horror. very well written, and extremely deep ! Love it

(+14)(-1)

Hey so, I thought the game was really good and impactful until the ending. (SPOILERS AHEAD) It kind of felt like the suicide of the player character was being used as some sort of joke? A punchline? It felt like some "ooh haha I got you!! You thought they were gonna die but they didn't!!!" And that really takes away the whole point and meaning of the game for me? I don't think that was the intention, but I think if this is the ending the developer wants, it should definitely be developed more to show that the scenes still matter and that the message still stands? Maybe have the player character think about how they're mentally exhausted, how horrifying it was, etc?

My lover happens to me suicidal and i used to be to but i read that first line and, to close to home man, got the tears for me

(-1)

im sorry you experienced that, but I hope it was a bit of a release. these things never really leave you completely. they have a halflife, but are never really gone.

(+2)(-2)

As someone who suffers from depression and suicidal ideations, this hit home pretty hard. I cried. Beautifully written.

(+2)(-1)

Thank you for reading it and your kind words.

(+5)(-1)

literal chills. not even kidding. wasn't expecting so much emotion to come out of a simple 5 min play. i love all the different words and the story behind them. you potrayed a serious topic so so well. i hope the creator reads this, but if you considering whether to play or not, you really should. its a great game. 5/5.

Thank you for reading/playing. I'm glad this flashbulb idea reached you, and I'm fortunate you could relate. It was and is a topic that effects my daily life, so it is humbling to know I am not alone.
