Small visual novel about dehumanization where the protagonist is treated as a mere object or experiment, but being of human nature, such a disconnection from all her reality makes her begin to feel discomfort and want to escape from that even if she has to throw herself into the unknown or decide to stay. in comfort, live the same thing over and over again every day for the rest of your existence.

On the other hand, the fact that the fantasies were more real to him than his static, boring, and unstimulated reality, I suppose is a way of dealing with his problems and coping with them, such as the disconnection that entertainment consumption sometimes provides, which tends to grow In troubled times, I suppose those vivid dreams could be similar to people in sensory deprivation tanks and the mind starting to create things to fill the lack of stimuli.

I would like to think that the protagonist's mind together with the field of human curiosity created those dreams and that in turn began to generate curiosity and a desire to see more. Just as the fantasy and creativity of science fiction authors have inspired explorers and scientists, those dreams inspired you to, if you wish to take it, make the decision to escape and see the stars.

HOPE YOU ENJOY MY GAMEPLAY.

The graphics were stunning, I could see the amount of time you've spent on the scenes. The music was also very fitting for the deep thought provoking story line, makes me wish the story line continued a bit further. I'm really glad I found this game, its nice to play something like this every now and then, only thing I would change is adding a nice graphic for the different endings! :)  

Thank you so much for playing! I'm happy to hear that you liked it. Yeah, maybe working with some visuals for the endings would have made it a bit more interesting :) I'm glad you liked it nonetheless, thank you!
