Some levels are ridiculously easy, others ridiculously hard (unforgiving timing - ridiculously precise as atomic clocks or pulsars ;) Overall the music is great - simple yet elaborate and lyrical tunes, and the puzzles are interesting too. IMO the interwoven dialogues provide an unnecessary distraction, even with the skip button. 4/5

SPOILER ALERT
Am I getting this wrong, or did Jack kill Kathryn/got Kathryn killed and forgot about it because of his drugs?

Someone explained the ending.... I might have got it myself if I played it all in one sitting maybe. Not sure if I liked it or not but it makes me feel the author is evil.
SPOILER
I mean, having a lengthy game getting us involve in this Kathryn character only to kill her off at the end? Is the author related to George R. R. Martin?

I've read on other sites that the main issue previously found was with anyone not using Flash Player 11, so upgrading Flash (or swapping Chrome/Firefox), may well solve the loading issue.

I've made comments on my profile about this game, but did want to post this here:
I was amazed how many people seemed to have a problem with a game about Mental Health, just because smoking was used as a coping strategy. This game would have been just as realistic if Kathryn was walking around with a syringe, squirting opiates at lasers; throwing pills, or alcohol at them; or showing aggression, or even more harmful coping methods.
This game doesn't support smoking at all, but has a very good understanding of Mental Health. Thank you very much Dev. :)

Why did Jack kill her in the end? He tricked her into a booby trap and dropped her into a pit. In the Company of Myself she died in order to allow him to solve the puzzle (interpretation, sacrifices life for him) but in Fixation, Jack straight up murders her for no reason

oh, also, the game refused to load for me on IE, but on firefox it ran smoothly and I encountered no problems with the jumping or smoke. In case anyone is having issues.

wonderful music though, worth playing through again... but seriously... let the ending be nice... stop throwing in curve balls that ruin everything we just worked for.... it's really making me wanna go out and kill someone.....or at the very least find the writer and strangle him.... ugh.. Also, wow... that ending level.... it's the same as Company of myself... the right path leads home... yeah sure... Home.... whatever.... maybe it wasn't intentional but wow, way to leave a bad taste in the player's mouth x.x ... oh well, at least you won't be forgotten ....

That awkward moment when you hold down S on your first playthrough and have to refresh to hear the opening dialogue. Oops.

I like the music and the quality of the game. However, I had a lot of trouble blowing smoke rings... I struggled without the visual bar lol

Game won't load! How can I get my pet if the game won't go past the cigarette screen? I've tried multiple times to play but to no avail!!!

I'm gonna be honest... I came into this game as a huge fan of The Company Of Myself, for its simplicity, good platforming, and interesting story. This one started losing me at the head-scratching roommate interaction, story-wise, and finished losing me at the infuriatingly difficult level 7 gates. I'm so pissed off I'm not even going to finish it. Stick with simplicity in future games.

i really like the concept of this game, but I feel like the presentation isn't as good as the original, for example there is dialogue instead of just thoughts going through your head.
