Between Stations
You can't remember what time it is, but you know it is late. You have just checked into your room at the Brownie Cove Hotel. The bed is lumpy and you can't sleep, but the TV is tempting...

SHRIMP. HEAVEN. NOW!!!!!
also, great game!
SHRIMP!! HEAVEN!!! NOW!!!!
i love this!! especially love the mcelroy reference :D
I thoroughly enjoyed this! I admire the way you interspersed serious thoughts within surreal comedy and had me laughing and confronting my own personal issues at the same time. I loved and was entertained by every station I came across, and I found the way in which you presented this story very interesting and unique. I'll definitely be checking out your other works!
In love with the storytelling. A wonderful game!
dang, nice and eerie game.
i loved this so much! But is SHRIMP HEAVEN NOW from what i think it's from..? lol
Keep up the good work!
totally is
In my opinion, you found here a way of storytelling that confronts its players with so many different side scenarios as well as one main scenario at the same time, and that's an admirable thing. You feel how the thousand thoughts in the mind of the character fade into the static of the television, which is kind of metaphorical. It's a great entry for the Ludum Dare 40, and I'm glad that I've been able to play it! Thanks for the experience, I really appreciate it. :) That's why I wrote about it on our blog, created a little gameplay video of it as well as recommended it in our GOTY 2017 list. <3 Looking forwards to your projects in the future!
Best wishes,
Sebastian
