Despair Springs Eternal

Despair Springs Eternal tells the story of Oliver, a 23-year-old struggling with mental illness. A huge event is on the horizon for him, marking a turning point in his life. This game explores how that event unfolds, and how Oliver's past continues to shape his present - and his future.

The story deals with heavy topics, such as mental health, depression, self-harm, etc. It's a very personal project, largely based on my own real-life experiences. No offense intended towards anyone affected by mental illness.

Please note:

• The in-game credits are outdated. The full credits are in the credits.txt file. Please let me know if I missed anyone!

• The game's story and script are original work by me. Any similarity to real persons or events (aside from my own personal life) is purely coincidental.
