Flee an apocalypse while connecting with others, October 28, 2022This is the last of the Texture games in this IFComp 2022 competition, of which there were quite a few.
This one is fairly long and well-developed. The world is ending: the sun hangs still over the horizon and has for days, while a storm is sweeping behind you and other strange happenings are occurring.
In my playthrough, I encountered a haven in the storm which seemed to have sinister undertones. The game ended on a positive note.
Most or all of these Texture games were written in a workshop, and they generally seem to all have some supernatural manifestation of an inward emotional issue that has to be worked through, like the ending of a relationship. I think this one handles that 'prompt' (if there was one) really well. I would give 4 stars except I didn't, for some reason or another, really connect with the emotional aspect personally, just admiring it from afar.
