I am not good at articulating my words. But I thought this would be fun to do.

Mouthwashing is incredible. I wished everyone in the entire world would play it.
I went in completely blind, hadn't heard a thing about it until I saw that Twitch streamer KUUEATER had played it. For the next three hours I was completely engrossed. So engrossed and wanting more, that I bought the game for myself and played it the next day. I made sure to use earbuds, which I never really do with video games (don't worry about it), to take in all of the sound design with it. It is incredible. I love the art style and the low-poly models, I love the droning, almost at times peaceful music, I love the characters, I love how grotesque the sound design becomes especially when near Curly. The harsh lighting of the post-crash ship. It all sets an incredible atmosphere that everything is horrifically, terribly wrong. And it can only get worse.
I was also suprisingly charmed by Polle. I hope we get a cute plush of that little guy.
It is times like these I appreciate hyper-focused internet forums. I like to hear thoughts on things I like, to gain another perspective, to learn something I missed or dismissed. I'm very bad with missing implied things, so it is a lot of help, especially here.
I think I will keep thinking about this game for a long time, while alone in a dark room.
