happy 2024!! no i am not writing this in february shush

this year has been treating me well for the most part. last month i had vocational exams which i THINK i did well on. theory was easy but the practical one i did have a bit of trouble with i admit.

since i didn't fuck shit up completely, as a treat i bought myself a game called in stars and time. my friend was (still is as of writing this) obsessing over it and kept talking about how good it is so i played most of it over winter break and. holy shit,

if you dont know what isat is, the basic plot is about you, siffrin, getting stuck in a time loop trying to stop a king from freezing an entire country in time. it seems cool at first but then The Nightmares ensue. as the game is about time loops prepare to see the same stuff over and over again lol. just a heads up

the game took me about 48 hours to complete over the span of 13 days. BEST 13 DAYS OF MY LIFE. it did get boringly repetitive sometimes (which i know is the whole point considering what the game is about) but overall its an incredible experience. the ending made me sob so harddd 😭 when i say this game is an emotional rollercoaster I MEAN IT. you feel happy and sad and scared and relieved and sometimes you feel overwhelming hopelessness!! and that is the only context in which that is ever a good thing since it helps you feel what siffrin feels (and he feels a lot of not good stuff especially later on smile)

overall its SUUUCHHHH a good game. plus on steam (not sure about itch.io) it comes with a manual which has some recipes in it. 1000000% RECOMMEND MAKING THE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES. its such a hit in my family i got asked to make a bigger batch next time lmaoooo

anyways go play the game. its wonderful and queer and you wont regret ittttttt
