About this game
A dark comedy/horror game by Jesse Barksdale, creator of the static speaks my name. Help a cult complete a ritual in exchange for divine inspiration to finish writing your terrible novel. A story-focused experience where the choices you make determine which of the five unique endings you receive. Play multiple times to unlock the complete story. Takes around 45 minutes to complete once and another 20 minutes to get a few more endings. Includes nearly an hour of in-game audio commentary about the making of the game.
Created by the two person studio The Whale Husband.

This is one of the weirdest games I've played. It's very old-school adventure but with a lot of surreal horror mixed in. Play it if you want to be weirded out, creeped out, and maybe a little depressed.
