Looking Up I See Only A Ceiling

The game has a great atmosphere, charming art style, and clear passion behind it. Its commentary on academic stress is also one of its stronger aspects. Unfortunately, the writing (especially the true ending) holds it back. After spending most of the game establishing the protagonist’s anxiety, the conclusion handles those themes in a way that felt far too simplistic. The message came across as essentially “face your fears and think positively,” which felt disappointing. Explore mode reinforces this even more heavily. The writing can also be awkward, as others have mentioned, although it’s possibly due to the translation, and often feels strangely sanitized despite the darker themes. The gameplay became tedious fairly quickly too, with unengaging puzzles and QTEs, unclear paths, and a lack of quality-of-life features. Much of the soundtrack also wasn't for me, with some sections feeling more distracting than atmospheric. Despite these flaws, I don't think it's a bad game. The atmosphere, art, premise, and ideas are genuinely good, and there's clearly a lot of passion behind it. For the price, it's decent, but the writing and especially the ending left enough of a bad impression that I can't fully recommend it.

a little on the nose at times, but i did enjoy the story. relatable.

I got both endings in 20 minutes. It is a short but really interesting game. I related to a lot of the dialogue especially having to do things in order.
