Somehow the artlessness with which this is written suits the genre better than the funamusea games it's emulating. I'd like to say it's an early glimpse of the pandemic babies trying to articulate their experiences, but the author could just as easily be an unsophisticated adult. Would be more sympathetic to it, but I can anticipate being involuntarily shown a caked-up version of the sister on social media several times a week for the next three months.

Based on the level of competence and subject matter of his first game I would guestimate Nemlei is in the 24-30 age range. So I guess it depends on what you consider "adult". I think we'll soon find that the level of arrested development from artists born in late zoomerdom is far worse than anything the "peter pan generation" were criticized for.
@hopeascendchaos, if you really want to take the route of extradiagetically-charged hatred for an itch.io game that's not even finished, a much more reasonable way of doing it would be asserting that it was championed by "degenerates" who have a personal investment in proprogating it to own the normies. Because there's really nothing in the game, in Nemlei's other games, or from Nemlei's own words that suggests that they're knowingly engaging in a controversy grift. If that was their intent, they would've made it actually shocking.
