No good like the original, and distort the story the original showed so well... is a good game, but in my oppinion, it´s a unnecessary complement to The Company of Myself.

The excessive use of double jump, combined with the need to use the mouse is making it impossible to get the easy badge. I can't do a double jump while bending the jump out to the right then back to the left with my non dominant hand and I can't use the mouse with my non dominant hand. I finally manage to get up top of the room about 3 furniture jumps before I get to the exit the blocks are back.

love the way the background music suddenly stops when you hear about (spoiler) Henry's death. really adds to the emotional effect

Thank goodness we had unlimited cigarettes in this game, otherwise, we'd be in serious trouble. Don't know if the debt is any better, though.

when i keep clicking out of the window to go on youtube and return back to this game and the cigarette updates it really feels like i keep hitting a real cigarette as it gets closer to my mouth

The blowing smoke thing was really frustrating without the meter to see where it'd land especially since I don't have a mouse haha. Great game! :)

I knew how it would end. Jack would end up killing her. Jack and his drug addiction made it so he'd kill her. The fact he doesn't even notice exactly what he caused... how he lied to her just to end up killing her. It struck a chord that I never expected to be hit.

I wonder if the fact that Jack can make lots of doubles is symbolic of him having multiple personalities? Since he talks about doing things he wouldn't normally do, or forgetting things, or both. In that case, could it be another personality that did what he did?

*Me when I come to the last level*
Brain: This looks awfully familiar.... *realizes its THAT level from The Company of Myself*
My reaction: Oh no.....

to anyone who wants the ehup badge but can't get it all you need to do is blow the ring at the detector and then run after it you will then somehow push the ring further amd get it to the detector

Once again, brilliant music. The game had some frustratingly hard parts but overall it's very good. The dialogue was interesting, as were the characters.

I played this game straight from start to finish. So really good on part of the developer. Really nice game and fun and made me think.

i always pictured the last level (spoiler; where you die) to be a little more dramatic, with us saying goodbye... forever, and kathryn sacrificing herself. i watch too many dramas

Pretty, sad right now. Finished "The Company of Myself", loved it and then excitedly searched for the prequel only to find that I can't past the loading screen.

I really wish the meter for blowing circles stayed through out the game, I found the start of level 4 insanely hard because blowing three in a row is hard.

The smoke ring mechanic is pointless, why add it in, it just adds extra complication and serves as frustration if you have to start over a puzzle because you couldnt get one smoke ring right, atleast keep the damn bar from the first level in so you dont miss it.

SPOILER ALERT!
When I saw the last level, and how it was the same level where Kathryn dies in "The company of myself", I started screaming. I saw it coming, I just didn't expect it to come so quickly. And then the thing at the end where Jack finds himself in a room, uuugh... I'll need a moment.
PS, What happens to Penelope?

It's really interesting to see that some of the levels, particularly the ones in the Meadow, are direct callbacks to certain levels in The Company of Myself, usually the most important ones. Which was cleverly done, but also kind of depressing. 5/5 stars for fantastic puzzles, fantastic writing and also the slow degradation of my ability to hold back tears.

Really good, but that smoke ring mechanic is awful, it that first level in the cave took me ten minutes because I couldn't form the damn rings

This game feels like Cyanide and hapiness. So many good times and then there is one week (at this game one point) when its depressing. Great game. Loved it. Wish to see more if Kathryn died. And if she did how does Penelope can handle? 5/5
