This game is really clever, and I insist you play the demo ASAP. Its core mechanic is this really clever system of constructing short responses by picking words you've heard other people say - it's so full of emotional weight and the art is beautiful. It's sad and queer and heartwarming so far.

Fullbody painting of Eustace Winner in profile, facing right, standing/floating and holding out both hands, one open and one gripping a baton. The background is black with an encompassing bloody red figure of Excelsius Winner also in profile, facing the same direction as Sebastian.

Within Excelsius's figure are the small floating figures of amnesiac Kay, Ringer, Aldown, Verity and Shaun, and Di-Jun Wang. In the background, faint behind Eustace, is a furious Simeon Saint staring directly at the viewer.Fullbody painting of Franziska in profile facing left, standing/floating. She reaches out one open palm with a tired, but stern look in her eyes. The background is black with a wide-eyed Manfred Von Karma in bloody red profile, encompassing the whole composition around Franziska and facing the same direction as her.

Within MVK's figure are the small floating figures of Robert Hammond, Gregory Edgeworth, Young Fender reaching to him, Yanni Yogi with Polly, and Judy with Samson. Faintly behind Franziska is a distraught Edgeworth looking directly at the viewer.
