Exceptionally fun to play with a group!
The replayability of this game is insane, the randomly generated levels allow for every playthrough to be wildly different from the last.
Every run also hurts more than the last, but my friends and I will still manage to have consistent 7 hour play sessions of this game every so often. Send help.

Neat newgrounds-y artstyle, and fun to play with friends! The levels were all enjoyable if challenging, and Stamper as the narrator was surprisingly charming.

come back
sink homunculus i miss you ;-;

Base game was still just alright.

But I absolutely loved the Side Stories!
They were incredibly heartwarming and made me love these characters infinitely more than their portrayal in the base game.

I really dig the presentation of this game. All the early 2000’s references were neat, and the UI reminiscent of AIM was cool.
The story was relatively simple, yet charming.
Without spoiling anything, the ending of this game felt a bit abrupt. Though, I honestly really appreciate that, as well as what the ending itself represents.
Surprisingly charismatic game all around!!

The game’s initial concept was interesting, but it slowly just devolved into something really strange.
I love the minimalist presentation of the game, and I think the narrator was pleasant early on.
The whole appeal of the trolley problem was the moral question surrounding it. Would it be better for 5 people to die as a result of inaction, or for 1 person to die though you ACTIVELY switching the trajectory of the trolley. I thought the rest of the game was going to focus on answering similar moral dilemmas, but it kind of just went down this path of trying to tell this strange creepypasta-style narrative. That in and of itself isn’t a bad thing, but the way this game does it isn’t all that interesting. They could’ve easily made this game have multiple endings based on your decisions, but it was just completely linear.
The percentage meter showing how other players answered, as well as Twitch chat integration were both brilliant ideas. If the questions in here were genuinely thought-provoking, then this game could’ve started some neat conversations.

I just wanted to answer some cool questions :(

i hate it here
(i hate it here)

i would rather sell my organs than re-complete this game

i am in an indescribable amount of pain

Super fun cooperative game to play with some friends.
Everyone taking control of different parts of this ship in an attempt to not perish is great.
Everyone also literally shitting themselves to death after contracting the plague was great.

I prefer this game a bit more than the original.
Levels are slightly less infuriating, but are just as satisfying to complete.
Everything also just feels like it has a bit more polish all around.
My friends and I have never bonded more over the collective trauma caused by a video game.

Cool multiplayer platformer!
Levels are fun, though clearly designed to be a little infuriating.

Having someone complete a level makes you feel like you just solved world hunger or some shit, it’s ecstasy

it did NOT come free with my xbox

these are trying times

INSANELY short, but gets its intent across pretty alright.
Though again, because of its length there wasn't a whole lot to get invested in.
The gimmick of not being able to replay the game was interesting though.
