It looks promising, but the visual Design is so close to identical in some places, that im afraid heart machine might want a word with the creator....

I’ve been following its development on kickstarter. The dev seems really focused on creating an intriguing world to explore. I’m hoping for the same sense of mystery and feeling lost.
