You finally have a game that is a beautifully animated avant garde passion project that not only wasn't rushed, the dev released it for free. In a year full of overpriced corporate slop and microtransaction BS destroying the industry, It's a breathe of fresh air to have a simple, fun game that is experimental, weird, that is both visually and audibly stunning. And again, it's free.

So how does the chat of one of the most popular streamers react to it?

Try hard

Too weird

Zoomer humour

I'm convinced gamers hate games.

Like I know it's a dumb thing to complain about idiots being contrarian on the internet, because it's nothing new, but it just annoys me that people can't just let something be art. Particularly when this project clearly had a lot of heart and soul put into it.

I mean the steam reviews have it at 97% positive, just ignore the weirdo haters. The trailer was amazing on its own I’m going to start it tomorrow

I know, it's silly that I let it get to me. It just managed to hit a nerve for some reason.
