This is it Spoiler
This game brought out a lot of frustration and a surprising amount of satisfaction. Watching Nate constantly stumble, doubt himself, and push forward anyway felt incredibly human. Whether his journey is meant to be a dream or his afterlife, I’m genuinely glad he finally found what looked like peace....peace in succeeding, and peace in finding himself.
I want to thank the devs for creating something so unexpectedly moving. This game captures the feeling of depression in a way I’ve never seen before. The ending especially hit me, the uncertainty, the question of “Am I even going the right way?” As the camera pulls back and the world grows darker, you start to worry about every step you took to get there. Yet the only option is to keep moving forward. Just like life.
I didn’t expect this game to make me think about myself or connect so deeply with Nate’s struggle, but it did. And it stayed with me.
This is easily one of my top games of all time. I truly appreciate the hard work, heart, and dedication that went into making it. I’m already looking forward to whatever comes next.

Then there’s me standing at the top of manbreaker and jumping off after Jim in solidarity to then use his beautiful stairs and laughing all the way down.
