I wonder is this based on a true story...
IMO game is slightly too slow. Yeah, you were trying to create atmosphere, I get it, but with that kind of minimalism game should be shorter or faster. Otherwise it's hard to maintain focus on the messeage.
"Plot" is nice. It touches important topics. Although bulling in this game is pretty softcore. But again, I understand minimalistic approach. IMO score 1.9 is hardly fair. It's ironic, when you think about it. Game about bulling was bullied...

I question the lack of user choice in this game.
I wish there were some choices like being able to choose a seat closer to the other students or being able to refuse bullying the newcomer.
I know that the game is trying to convey a message about society, but I feel like the view is overly pessimistic and ignores all of hex's responsibility over their actions. The story constantly portrays them as a victim, even after they decide to bully another in a similar situation. At no point does the hex take ownership of their actions.
I like the theme of "masking who you really are will cause you to lose yourself", but what message were you trying to convey with this? Now what? There was no particular moral or message beyond that sentence.
The visuals were lovely and I think that if the core message was fleshed out a little more, this would've been a fantastic piece. I hope to see more of your work and thank you for listening to my rambling rant!

The Squares lived happily,
in their square houses,
in their square yards,
in their square town.
One day, a family of Circles
moved in from the west.
"Get out of here, roundies!" shouted one of the Squares.
"Why?" asked one of the Circles.
"Because this is a metaphor for racism!"
