I've been playing this crazy little indie game during my art block. It is fucking awesome.

You pretty much have to play the game to understand this at all.
Haha, this is not what I expected to see on Valentine's Day. Disturbing. I like it though.
I was a little disappointed to watch the sublime WTFery of the few opening areas (probably up to the blood caverns) start to peter off as a cohesive narrative started to take shape in the later half of the game. Not even a metanarrative or anything, but just a straight-up, boring, comprehensible story about this dude and that other dude and the thing he did and the terrible consequences and the quest to set it all straight or whatever. I suppose it's challenging to keep adding and adding pieces to the story without having them eventually start to cohere of their own will, which is a shame. Up until I comprehended what was going on, I thought it did a better job at playing the incomprehensiblity game than even yume nikki did.
