the euphoria dysphoria representation really hit for me. I felt so relieved and relaxed immediately for the blocks too all come to me and make a path and then the ground became unsteady and dropped me into colliding mashing blocks it was stressful and I immediately scrambled for the purchase i had with the euphoria. that's exactly how it feels you could be having your best day and feel so comfortable in your body and one offhanded comment can make it all crumble to the ground.
The cursor drift was another layer of chaos i didnt need. the only thing i felt was annoyance from the cursor drift. absolutely none of the words meant anything for me. idk what that means other than detachment from feeling like i need to fit in somewhere. i dont need to fit into any category not do i try to.
can you explain the problem you are experiencing in a bit more detail? Does the problem already occur in the menu or in the first scene? Are you playing with Mouse + keyboard?
White is is more about the educational / informative aspects, this game allows expecially younger people to explore their gender a bit. My favourite part is the room with the different doors and pronouns, as it´s often hard to ask others to refer to you with different pronouns just to "give it a try", expecially if you´re not very confident and also a bit scared- which is a completely normal reaction, by the way. The one thing I´d "change" about the game is to extend the corridor in the end scene further and fade out before reaching its "end", to not give a specific number to the ammount of "available" genders.
I absolutely adore the game andabsolutely recommend playing it if you are either unsure of your gender or are interested in learning a bit more about different gender identities in general.
Y'know something kinda cool? This is a game about genders that defy the typical binary. The game itself defies typical genres, I can't think of a category that this game cleanly fits in except for maybe a visual novel (The game describes itself as a puzzle game but idk that feels wrong to me lol).
Walking sims, there's plenty out there. It's pretty inspired, for the structure, by "Antichamber", which indeed is more of a puzzle game. Btw, there is so many genres of games out there that defining it as a "Binary" is kinda weird in it's own.
huh, i wasn't aware of walking sims before this comment, thanks for that new info! I do see your point in genres being a lot more umbrella-y and loose than the gender binary,
cute enough game, I personally didn't get much emotional resonance out of it as someone very assured in my gender, but I generally appreciated the visual metaphors that accompanied each term. well done!
Hey Rhys, while a dedicated mobile version is not somethign we are currently looking at the web version can be played on mobile devices, thanks to the two button control setup:
use one finger to look around and 2 to move forwards.
Keep in mind that performance might not be ideal, depending on the hardware.
Thank you, truly, for making this game. Every time I play it, I cry, because it is the thing that gave me the courage to come out to my family. So thank you.

"a person walks through the door" - that felt good, everything else felt strange for me. Also learned smth new ^^ nice game
ooohhhh.... I loved it!
peak game it was fun
"they walk through the door" was better than he or she for me, idk the other two just felt weird
Even as a cis guy, this game was quite nice, and educational.
Some of these terms I'd never even encountered before, thanks.
"Ne walks through the door" i didnt know it would hit so close to the home

Hey kirby,

Cheers
I cried when I saw the description of myself, thank you for this wonderful game
honestly I love this it gave off a very dysphoric vibe, trying to find myself and finding other versions myself!
he walks through the door he walks through the door he walks through the door he walks through the door he walks through the door he walks
haha same
This was a very cool concept for a game. My father walked by as I was playing and saw what I was doing and I got to teach him some new terms too
Such a soft and, honestly, gender-affirming game!

i didnt realise how much i needed to hear "they walk through the door" until i was crying.
someone on twitter once said
this game truly did make me genderful

I should ask for estrogen i think
I loved how the rooms weren't static! It was trippy and cool
not immersive, 0/10
