Space Funeral is an independently created role-playing video game and art game by Irish developer thecatamites. The short game was created using RPG Maker 2003, and centers around a boy named Philip, who leaves home to save his world from a mysterious corruption. Space Funeral is notable for its parodies of the horror and RPG genres, its crude art style, and frequent use of blood in dialogue, graphics, and thematics.

pretty awesome conceptually and in what it says about the arts, and specifically the RPGMaker culture existing at the time. better to make something shit and unique than something fine that's lacking originality.
however, playing it through to completion was kind of a slog. its super short, but the abrasive visuals and trivial combat system combine together to make something simultaneously overwhelming and kinda boring to play?
the soundtrack is incredible, the story and themes are pretty great, but its a game that's more fun to think about than it is to actually play i fear

this game introduced me to Ruth white and i am forever thankful for that...but about the game, my only gripe is that the second half felt really rushed like when i reached the city of forms i was like "is that it?? its already the end??" we barely explored leg horse house, and lack of content on the snowy wastelands and the beforementioned city of forms left a bad taste in my mouth
