i think this was an excellent depiction of religious trauma, the way the therapist's tone and words shifted across the sessions was really chilling. and the way sarah reacted to it, having these intense bouts of doubt and self-hatred and being entirely unable to describe them, felt very real. the art is stunning, and i really liked the scenes where the backgrounds shift a tiny bit on every dialogue box. 

i did have some technical issues with the game, sometimes when i opened the menu to save it would make the dialogue boxes disappear and i'd have to quit and reopen to keep playing. because of this i didn't save before the choice and had to click through the game again to get the other ending lmao.

Hiii!

Thank you for your kind words! a9 worked so hard on the visuals and I absolutely adore how they turned out.

Sorry for the technical issues you encountered, though. I have sent up a 1.1 version that should fix the bad state handling when pressing continue.
