i think this is what the kids mean when they say peak
I'm on windows and my computer won't let me open the game :(. It says something about protecting my device, is anyone else having this problem?
Hi! Ren'Py games and other small games often get caught by Windows protection like that. The popup usually has an option that says "run anyway," which will let it through the firewall. You can also go to your "allowed apps" in settings and let the game in through there. If that doesn't work, try looking up the specific error message for more information.
thank you!!!
Man that was awesome, played the whole thing in a few hours, writing this at 1:30 am, worth it though. Tumblr and Twitter were like so <3< trust or like user was like the third leaf yknow. Also I like the music. And the part where Twitter just pulls a glock on you.

and so the game is good. I played with the translator into Russian - but even so I enjoyed the verbal turnover - I wish good luck to the developers.
They'll need it.i love this <- tumblr user
just stumbled on this and wow!! amazed by all the work for such a silly project
love that the good end for twitter's locked behind finishing tumblr's, very fun little bit of dynamic gameplay there :)
Genuinely an amazing experience with great writing and music, not to mention artwork! I love the Tumblr community, too, everyone is so creative!
