As someone with OCD, I just want to say thanks for creating this. Though my triggers are different of course, this really displays the constant bombardment of thought and the constant and sometimes exhausting reputation of activities that goes on. The end was touching to, I sometimes get little moments like that where I can beak the cycle. It's freeing when you can actually get there, even if it doesn't always last. I hope this game helps others understand a bit more about this.
We are sincerely touched by your words, and we're really happy that you could identify with the character. It was really our intent to provide a reflective tool, and we hope that Leonard's story can help someone.
Thank you so much for your words and for sharing your experience, we wish you all the best on your journey :)
Congratulation for this game, you managed to make it an intense experience without making it too serious! As someone with an anxiety disorder, I find Leonard very relatable, but at the same time I can see the differences in our struggles. I appreciate you giving the character a good relationship with his neighbours, because people with mental health issues are too often represented as isolated. Which they can be, obviously, but not all of us are.
Hi LaChapeliere, we're glad you tried our game. We really wanted to create an experience that was light but at the same time representative of the protagonist's difficulties. Regarding the relationship with the neighbors, I've got to be sincere: we had not thought about that aspect, but it's true! It's really wonderful to see how everyone can notice different things in the same game :)
That sounds like a powerful project! Raising awareness about OCD is crucial for reducing stigma and helping those affected feel understood. The game offers such a vivid and impactful experience. Projects like this can really foster empathy and connection. A big round of applause for the authors!
I feel like I broke the ending btw. I made the choice at the end, clicked through the conversation and I think one mouse click too many made the screen freeze with the OCD logo really dark in the background. I feel I accidentally clicked through some ending screen as well.
Really nice! It looks really good and polished. And, you really convey that feeling of anxiety very well. I feel like I understand people that suffer from these kind of compulsions a bit better. Well done!
