Is the island with the two palm trees picture supposed to be a reference to The Static Speaks My Name? Not sure if anyone else noticed this.
I love the art style of this game. The puzzles are fun and the story is interesting so far.

I really enjoyed this game and it's a personal favorite of mine! If you're a fan of sci-fi, especially related to things like dreams and psychology, alternate worlds, and strange technology, I would recommend it. The story is also compelling, showcasing through the protagonist the complicated feelings of starting a new phase of life as a parent. And it's clearly a passion project, with all of the hand-crafted environments and the weird and unique scenarios present across each chapter, which is cool to experience and support in indie games.
For some things that may put people off:
The puzzles can be a bit confusing at times, I didn't mind using a guide when needed but it does make later chapters harder to replay and I could see this being more frustrating to some players. I've heard some people have performance issues, but haven't run into these personally. Also, later chapters can get weirder or a bit uncomfortable but still worth playing through and it adds to the general strange atmosphere and absurdity of the dream world.
Overall it's a very underrated game though and I hope more people check it out! Or check out the definitive edition when that releases with added content/performance fixes!
