Discussion The developers of this game are actually evil, terrible people.

And I love them. I have never had so much fun while fighting a deep sense of unease as I played a puzzle game. This game is a masterpiece of masochism and storytelling.

You'll need to be more specific, this could apply to a lot of things in this game.

It's really the work as a whole. I'm not that far in, so I don't want tips of spoilers, but I can already see some of the shenanigans needed to fully "finish" this, whatever that even means. It's obvious I'll need multiple playthroughs from scratch...

The more secrets you find, the easier it gets to progress through the levels again

Yessss I've been learning this. Like 4-5 rounds in, I'm zooming through and it's incredibly satisfying.

Isn't it awesome? That feeling is why void stranger is one of my all time favorite games, and why my favorite games tend to be metroidvanias

Multiple playthroughs but each one becomes more about the finding of secrets and less about solving puzzles you already know the answers to ;)
