I played this game maybe the year after it came out. it's pretty simple, but it helped. It makes me sad that some days I still feel like this, but I'm proud of myself because despite these feelings, I'm still here.
Today's going to be a good day. I'm going to make soup because I'm sick, and maybe finish reading the book I started a month ago. It's storming outside, I hope it keeps up through the day because I really like the sound of rain hitting my window. Maybe I'll call my old highschool buddies to check on them. It'll be a good day.
This is genuinely such an amazing and horrifyingly realistic experience. It captures the exact thoughts that I, as well as many others, experience in these moments. Alongside the beautiful art.. I'm sad I've only just found this experience, this moment, and I will be coming back to it. Thank you <3
This is a very lovely and heartbreaking games about the importance of loved ones vs suicidal ideation. It was short and very effective! I love how there is a few times where you can break down like how all our thoughts make us unsure if it's the right thing or not. It's so bittersweet. The sketchiness of the artwork adds to the vibe of uncertain feeling and fear. Thank you for taking the time to tread such dark topics it's so important.
This is very good. It really shows the magnitude of ending your own life. To anyone who is at this stage... I know this is probably heard a lot, and I know I don't know you personally, but I have been here before. Don't say goodbye. People care about you. That person you smiled at on the street? They care about you. You made their monotonous day a little happier. People you haven't even talked to care about you and want you to be happy. Don't say goodbye. <3 talk to me if you want to, I'll listen to whatever you want to say, but don't say goodbye. <3
I didn't cry, but I did feel like it. A very sad but lovely game <3
Reminded me of my best friend who passed sometime two years ago, in 2023. I can only imagine this is how she felt. She said sorry to my then partner, not sure about me, and left for months, before being told by my partner that she was gone. Slowly, but surely, I've come to terms with it.
I hope you, and anyone who feels this way, are doing well today. Keep going :)
a veces es tan difícil seguir... incluso si quieres pedir ayuda simplemente no sale... mi cabeza constantemente esta en conflicto... entre si hacerlo o no... no se que hacer...
An indescribably VERY powerful game. I am a person who very rarely cries for my own reasons, for my own experiences. But the first few frames squeezed tears out of me, and after the ending I almost went into hysterics. More proof that it doesn't matter how you do it, the main thing is WHAT you do. I don't know how it was possible to get so emotional. The game is WORTH PLAYING, BUT the main thing is to understand WHY you are playing it. This is not just another piece of junk that asks for money. This is a reflection of a REAL situation that is HAPPENING NOW. My hysteria was caused by the fact that HERE I could not influence this. No matter how much I wanted to retreat, no matter how much I wanted to avoid the "Yes" button at the end, I could not. This is truly terrible. The terrible thing is not that I was not given such an opportunity. The terrible thing is that sometimes it simply does not exist.
I BEG YOU, APPRECIATE YOUR LIFE. YOU ARE UNIQUE, YOUR LIFE IS UNIQUE. THIS IS NOT A GAME WHERE YOU CAN PRESS THE ARROW BACK. THERE ARE PEOPLE AROUND YOU WHO CARE ABOUT YOU, WHO ARE HAPPY TO KNOW YOU, TO HAVE YOU THERE WITH THEM. AT LEAST SOMETIMES, BUT THEY ARE THERE WITH YOU. NOT A SINGLE THING YOU DO IS WORTH ENDING IT ALL. EVERYTHING CAN ALWAYS BE FIXED, EVERYTHING CAN ALWAYS BE DISCUSSED. YOUR FRIENDS, KNOWLEDGEHOODS, FRIENDS, OR EVEN STRANGERS ON THE INTERNET ARE READY TO HELP YOU. YOU CANNOT BE REPLACED, YOU CANNOT BE REPEATED. YOU ARE THE MOST PRECIOUS THING THEY HAVE. Don't keep it all in yourself. Discuss it with someone. With anyone. With people dear to you. Give us a choice. Give yourself a choice. Say "No" to the ending of this game. Change history. Life goes on, no matter what. We need you. I beg you.
please don't do it. scd is not the only way you have to go. stay strong and don't give up. i dont know who you are, or what your situation is, but i hope you don't choose this path. (^_^)
This one hit a little closer to home than I like. Had a close friend take their life 3 weeks ago and it's something I'm still struggling with. It's hard to anticipate where the grieving process takes you. From anger to desperation to guilt to heartbreak. I hope that whoever is going through that kind of pain is able to reach out like I did in this playthrough, because I would do anything for my friend to have done the same.
you must learn to help yourself, no one in this world is a better friend than yourself should be. Giving up is dumb, how could you know that better days arent coming? And how could you expect good days if you dont do anything to get them. Surround yourself with good people, learn to love yourself and this life of ours that is way to precious to be thrown away.
please dont. please. i understand your feelings. this might sound boring and over-repeated but please, dont do it. i dont know who you are, or what your situation is but please, dont do it. please. <3
I hope you're still here. You don't need to be happy or strong... it's okay to fall down. Being here and to have your heart still beating and your lungs still rising is enough. You are enough. You might not see it or know it but to someone, you are the most beloved person. Even when you think you have no one. Even when you have no one to say goodbye to, you have the world. You have me. I care. This game cares. Suicide prevention hotlines and charities care. The world cares. And even when you can't see it, just try help others like you like how you want them to help you. Each day you carry on is an achievement to be proud of. Each day is not guaranteed and each smile doesn't last. Just carry on and that would be enough. Thx and good luck to anyone who reads this ^v^
Thank you so much for this. Actually going through this simulation helped me better understand the gravity of ending my life. I have too much to lose and I don't wanna give it up. I don't wanna go. I don't wanna say goodbye. Thank you.
me alegra que puedas tomar la decisión de no hacerlo... yo lo hice por surte... es muy difícil sentirse así... pero se puede solucionar... aun que uno ya no quiera seguir hay que saber que otra alternativa, y hay mucha gente que realmente te ama, que los destrozarías si te fueras, y que haría lo que por verte feliz... vive por ellos, se feliz por ellos y eventualmente lo serás por ti❤

Idk if I'm the coward or shes the reckless one... I'm going through harder times than this and I'm gradually losing everyone why I'm still here?!
