Actually it was my deal. I enjoyed it very much, and it summed up my experiences at my worst moments of depression. I also thought some of the interactivity in your story was really unique and enjoyable.
That said I still can’t see it as a game, but that probably belongs to the argument that the term “game” could use a little reworking to cater for current standards and definitions.
My criticism wasn’t aimed at your work at all, and was just me being a boorish asshole because of circumstantial weariness.

If it makes you feel any better, I really enjoyed this. It really hit the nail on the head for me… I wish it was longer, but I can understand how working on something like this would suck after a while. Thanks for the game though. : )

Hi, I’m the creator of this game. I understand that this isn’t everyone’s deal. But it isn’t a journal entry, it’s a social anxiety sim. A flight sim isn’t a pilot’s journal entry. And your complaint boils down to a fan of FPS complaining that a game site has an RPG on it. Not every game is meant to cater to everyone. If you have some substantial criticism that would help me make future games better, I would be glad to hear it.I did not post this game, though I am flattered that Porpentine did.

It’s fine not to enjoy games like this, but how do you go from that sentiment to suggesting with scare quotes that it shouldn’t be on this site? Is it really that burdensome to scroll through here and see a personal Twine game now and then?

I gotta admit, I’m kind of getting sick of people using Twine to create journal entries.
