Assemble with Care is like that song, that's just vibing, that makes you feel wholesome for a while, but is definitely way to short, so you listen to it on repeat to stay in that zone and savor that feeling - it's your best bet on escapism in a world that seems grim. So basically this game - to me - is 'Feel it all around' by Washed Out.

It's also a love letter to retro technology and the way tinkering with it gives you a certain kind of satisfaction, which stands in contrast to the consumerism we developed with the advent of the internet and next-day delivery of virtually everything you could want. Technology is getting more sophisticated and harder to repair and we are evolving into a throwaway-society. It feels good to take something and just make it work again.
The game has a diverse cast, an amazing art-style and a wonderful soundtrack. There is not much you do, but I can't see anything I don't like about what you do. It's these kinda concepts, that seem hard to pitch and not really like a game in the traditional sense, that make me excited for what the future of videogames might hold for us.
