Great, I'll try the demo soon!
Well, I guess this was inevitable.
I really wish those Genres get looked at. I mean, I guess this game requires "Strategy", but come on...

Yeah, they've always been kind of useless. Same for "Adventure", a game in which you go on an adventure isn't necessarily an adventure game any more than a game in which you play a role is necessarily an RPG.
And the metroidvania tag...

There's an old game where you actually managed both heaven and hell and your job is to make sure both place run well so souls can be reborn and avoiding overpopulation. I forgot the title of that game but it was pretty interesting idea.


Also if I play this game I will be just keep stamping "DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE"

Well, looks like they removed Strategy at least. Neat. (Though my previous post makes no sense now...)

Anyway, game looks nice. I really liked Papers Please, so this might be a title I'd enjoy too.

hmmm. think this was on of the games int the 'Bundle for Racial Justice and Equality', so I assume I already got this game DRM free already.... too many to go through from that bundle
A very original idea for a game. I'm more than 30 years old and the gaming industry still surprises me with unconventional ideas. This is why I love computer games! :)
I am death incarnate!

Bought.
I will try for sure. Thank you, devs, for your effort to deliver demo (+1) for Linux users (+1).
This loioks a bit weird.

Ah yeah that's it. I think that game is in dire need of remake or spiritual successor.
