I am trying to be a game reviewer and have thus gotten into the habit of commenting upon every game I play, or making a mental note to do so later on... This one is raw, unedited, and packs my full emotional spectrum into each and every word. The mixture of the main character's love and affection for the wife he lost, and the reality of his mental illness leading to her death and his eternal misery. Truly sad, and yet strangely beautiful. The challenging aspects of the game were enjoyable, the artistry and music tied it all together beautifully, so that every single shadow seemed to truly come alive, not in the animated sense, but in the idea that each one was a life, a possibility, a soul...
I replayed it, placed the main character with his wife on the first level they met, and exited the game without moving on to the next level. At least with that mental image I can move on knowing that they truly loved one another...

I come back to this game once in awhile. I've beat it numerous times, but I always get something different out of the message.

Love the way the Gameplay and the Story are intertwined. The metaphor and main game mechanic are so beautifully fused it's hard to lose track of the meaning.

this game just made me sad sometimes but its a really well made game so i like it because it represents a man that has no company from himself.

The best games are the games where you have to continue to learn the story. That's why I think this game is fun, and sad.

The storyline--as amazing as it is--is completely and utterly RUINED by the final 3 levels, which are all outlandishly difficult to perfect and time just right. I can only give 3 *'s, as simply LOOKING at the final level just made me want to go to YT for the rest of the storyline.

I spent fifteen minutes jumping around like an idiot to be told something so sad that I don't want to play the game anymore...
Still worth it.

the life story of this hermit has a really massive impact to my emotion. i was really into the game and definitely touched upon reading the messages level by level while seeking for the truth and listening to that sad background music that emptied the atmosphere. whats even worse was when i read the truth upon finishing the last level that he lost his loved one, and trying to move on by dropping his past experiences. though my heart was completely shattered, I really appreciate the game.

Just keep running and jumping into the pit and making clones, there will eventually be enough heads to jump on to get across.

On the last level keep jumping off the cliff and holding the up and right arrow keys. Make sure to jump off differently each time. Eventually your guy will automatically jump on his shadow's heads and reach other side.

so many metaphors... on the last level, i had so many clones.. that i lagged and couldnt beat it, this was CLEARLY intentional, as it meant if you hold on to your past too long, it will slow you down beyond repair.. .clearly intentional
