Thanks for including Chroma Zero! Myst/Riven inspired so many games which could have been featured, so I appreciate it. If you haven't checked out Quern / Dimhaven then I'd definitely suggest adding those to your list.

Thanks for playing! I suppose you can still look for all the cats. I’m in the USA and so are the composers. The translators and playtesters are from all over.

There are a bunch of mitigation options you can try: steamcommunity.com/app/3121470/... midway down the page, search “nausea”. Also disabling the Depth of Field option will remove the small FOV shift when you look at an object. Hope some of that helps! I get it too sometimes.

I just fixed the text-popping (like the word "something" that starts typing and then drops to the next line) in my own game. It could be stylistic to leave it the way it is, but if you want to fix it there are a few different ways I found. I can send you the links.

If people hate it, there’s always the original! I think I’ll enjoy the visuals and the narration. I played a few hours of the original so I got some taste of the text mechanics, it was cool.
