Doing it.

The moment the lever was pulled, somebody's pet kitten stepped onto the bridge. I read somewhere that if a cat falls more than 11 stories, it instinctively flares its legs out to increase air resistance. This slows it down enough to stick the landing with relatively minor injuries. In Dwarf Fortress, apparently, cats don't do that.

Man, I keep meaning to do it, but then I always forget what it is.

Finished it today. it's really, really good, and if you are thinking about playing, go for it. It has everything you would want from an adventure game- good narrative, a romance subplot, retro-cyberpunk (that's a thing, right?), and an unexpected plot twist. (well, it is missing insanely hard puzzles that we've come to expect from adventure games, but that's probably for the best...)

I went through it last weekend. I liked the interface but found it got in the way at times. Unfortunately I successfully predicted where the story was going by sheer chance. I enjoyed playing it though and it has some cool moments.

VERY nice! I quite liked it, thanks for point it out.

Game was great, the ending was hard to get through what with the AI actually using your real name ;_;.

Just a heads up, when the credits roll keep watching. Don't do what I did and walk off to get a drink.

I missed the first pop-up in the credits, but saw the rest.
I also found the ending pretty resonate (feelings-wise) since the AI kept using my name.
