I Pet My Cat and Worry

This game was written for the Neo Twiny Jam in 500 words for less.

It uses some creative styling with black and white geometric figures (although it did overlap the text a bit on my laptop screen).

It presents three visions of anxiety: worry about the future, worry that the present is slipping by, and ruminations on the past.

Each is countered by a cat, though, which is sweet. There wasn't any wrapping-up at the end that I found, just three separate paths. Maybe there was one additional passage before looping, but it was hard to tell.

When one’s future is bleak, it is hard to look at it in a positive manner. When one’s present is filled with anxiety about what could be done instead, it is hard to do things. And when one’s past is full of regrets or embarrassment, it fills the brain with what ifs.
All you can do is pet your cat…
