"Who is 'normal' anyway? Psychologists are people who have chosen to use their lives to help people. Why on Earth wouldn't you want to talk to someone like that?" That is a very, very good point.

Extremely deep and touching, with a beautiful soundtrack. I'll be showing this to my psychology teacher. You should put this up on Steam Greenlight.

I think that the messages could get improved. First, sepparate the chat bubbles in colors, as some people that talks with you is chasing you, they come from the same spot and you dont know whos talking. Also, while they are talking you are reading, and the letters move a lot while appearing, you can stop them by clicking one time but sometimes you skip that message because it just finished and you clicked. Sorry for bad english, im spanish.

With the Smoke skill, it's like your playing Company of Myself AND Spewer! Nice as always! There should be a note to don't do smoking, kids :p.

I love that you made a philosophical game with a sentimental and moral purpose. I think that made the game much more interesting and I found it much more desirable to follow through with the story than most generic games these days. I'd previously played "The Company of Myself" and didn't expect any prequel, but the connection just intensifies the meaning and I think you did a wonderful job. The ending was great as well. It leaves a sense of optimism that the game focuses on. This game seems like it could be a psychological thriller book. Great job.

This brought bad some of my own memories and almost brought me to tears, but I felt a little depressed knowing how it really ended after beating the first game and this. :p Great game, though! 5/5 and favorited for fun and immersing gameplay that managed to touch me emotionally.

Really, what an idiotic thing to say if it really was sponsored there would be a name on the cigarette, this game isn't funded by a cigarette company in fact it is literally against smoking!

to complete the EHUP you need to blow a ring and then run towards the button, you sort of drag the ring along with u and it gets the ring that extra distance. hope that helps =)

Y'know, if I had a psychiatrist following me around, I wouldn't give a dang about my psychological problems, I'd want him to tell me WHY I CAN'T PUSH BUTTONS!

Among all the graces this game possesses-- its story, its music, its pacing, to name a few-- I admire how it is not heavy-handed in dealing with more emotional themes. It shows how games can explore a complex narrative in a meaningful and interactive way. Truly a gem.

Jesus, if you think this game is promoting smoking then you've obviously not made it past the first few levels, or even the loading screen. Please think before you post crap.

The story is very sad...but also a bit ironic from the perspective of Jack. He took drugs so he would forget his problems but in the end it created more problems. It even causes him to sometimes forget he lost Kathryn, a person he loved and cared for quite a bit (not to mention it ultimately brought about her demise, although that was obviously indirect and an accident). It's even worse when you add the premise of "The Company of Myself" to it. Everyday he remembers and forgets everything that had happened and then goes through it all over again the next day. Quite a tragic story, yet still beautiful and heart touching. Thank you for making this game and writing this great, thought provoking tragedy.

If you use the cheat code to do the BotD, you cannot get the last badge. Using a cheat code disables the level stats.

so… kathryn can double jump, blow smoke rings, and run around in dark caves without getting lost, but she can't push a button?

I just had a idea. You guys should make a sequal to both games that is from a 3rd party but is not within the mind. Show what actually happened in the real world. What peoples thoughts and actions within there head actually are to someone looking on in the tangible world that is not part of the subconscious. Just a thought. Like using Penelope as the character.

Guys, I can't believe the top comments! He was a magician, that's why he has his top hat. Also, notice how his magic trick was to multiply himself? Remember the concept of the game "Company of Myself" if you've played it? Now put the pieces together, I've already made it easy enough for you.

For the people who do not get the ending. Basically Kathryn goes and tries to get rid of her smoking problem and she meets a guy. The guy takes drugs and he said sometimes he forgets things and sometimes he does things that is wrong and on a rare occasion both. So at the end he accidentally kills Kathryn then goes home and forgets about it, so Kathryns dead. Then in the company of myself he remembers her. Sad ending. And she and him both fall down symbolizing falling down. Also in the meadow the lasers no longer harm her so she has no need to smoke. The end is very surprising and it all started from one boyfriend... so be careful with your boyfriends and girlfriends is the moral i guess, or don't take drugs... and smoke... 5/5 Brilliant game There should be a topic for these kind of games however there are not many of these games, more for the future.

That... was amazing.
He doesn't even remember that he puled the button... that was sad.
She had just finally turned her life around, and jack destroys that during his downhill spiraling of meds, unaware of his actions until to late.
I loved every second of this. Was nice to see the story on Kathryn's part, and learn more about Jack's past, before he reached that hopeless state of guilt and pain.
A simple game, challenging, with a heart touching story.
Kudos!

I am dumbfounded by the fact that this has a lower rating than "I Saw Her Standing There". The storytelling, music choice, puzzle challenge, puzzle innovation, and artwork are far superior in this game. It seems the main complaints for this are: some puzzles are too tough and there is too much dialogue. I'd say don't listen to this bullsht advice. There might be some wordiness, but I'm hesitant to even say that because it might affect the voice you brilliantly create for the characters only using text (the stutter, fuking genius, notable mention of the omission of "..." later to show more confidence). The puzzles should be hard in a platformer; I don't understand how you can feel accomplished performing tedious tasks as so many other praised platformer games require you to do. Rant aside keep up the good work 2darray, you really are a boss and I'd personally rank all of your past 7 games in the top 10 games on kong. Keep pushing yourself and keep being creative.

for those having trouble on level 17 you can push the smoke rings so simply blow a ring and then run in after to push it all the way to the switch
