omw home
You wake up to this simple text from your partner. Now you're racing against time to tidy your shared apartment, but each small decision has unexpected consequences. Will you remember to lock the door? Clean those dirty dishes? Every overlooked detail shapes your partner's emotional response when they walk through the door. If you could rewind time and make different choices, would it change the outcome? Or are some endings already written?

When I was younger, this game would have just pissed me off. The idea that nothing you do right now can fix the issue. But I've been through a breakup like this, and as much as it sucks, sometimes it is inevitable. Like she says "even love isn't enough" - it frustrates me that I can't actually "win", the pain I feel is all-too-real, and that's what makes this such a powerful game. Really cool that you could tell such an impactful story so quickly. Well done!
Agree with Dogloaf. Do your best and if you're not compatible, let go ;)
100%!
Brother dodged a bullet tbh
I would have loved more time to add some environmental nuance and make the partner more likeable, but tbh indeed haha
