A text-based, concept interactive fiction about consoling people you meet. #short #pixelart #blackandwhite #platformer #textbased #minimalist

THEMES:  

• Abandonment

• Existentialism

• Societal Expectations

All characters in this game are SYMBOLIC and are in no way intended to represent these occupations.

This interactive fiction is inspired by Poor Theatre:

Poor Theatre was designed to focus on the actor's abilities and how theatre can exist without unnecessary additions. So Poor Theatre:

• Strips away all excesses such as set design (maps and interface), leaving only a handful of props (inventory items). 

• Aims to rid the disconnect between actor and audience (NPCs and player).

• has an acting area that is usually bare (map).

• Significant features such as props are highly symbolic (characters & items)
