I know it's supposed to make you second guess yourself, but 'Don't hesitate' was honestly good advice for playing this game. I only hesitated once because I wasn't sure how I was supposed to invert the meaning of my name, and honestly this was pretty fun. I kept going wa-NO HESITATION, finishing in around ~28 minutes! Thanks for the good time :)
Wow that was awful. I love it!
YOU may only have an hour, but playing Use & Regret feels like a full day spent at a high school staffed by ferocious surrealist bent on keeping you on your toes working from a strange, hostile-but-creative state.
Its also the kind of game you can play over and over again (if you're a sucker for pain like me).
This is a game my virgo-moon, and inner gifted child absolutely relished in. Its honestly just a weird, wondrous way to snap your brain out of a creative rut, to boot. Loved it.
i'm so glad you enjoyed it, thank you for your kind words
as a leo moon i definitely wrote this to stimulate earth moons lol
Deliciously hostile. Love it. Thank you.
thank you, really glad you enjoyed it!
this was super interesting and although I am still very much figuring out what everything means I have never been more enthralled by less than an hour's worth of content!
Thank you so much for making this, I adore this
THANK YOU so much for playing and enjoying my game!! this means a lot to me <3 <3
This was fascinating! I'm sure I learned a lot about game design... also about the tiny emotional attachments inside each task. Thanks for this stressful experience, lol.
