стоит своих денег. Не знал ничего по этой игре, даже не знал откуда она у меня лежит в желаемом и не помню почему купил, но я явно благодарен тому кто это сделал

this game is actively consuming my life

This is the best game ever made

omori

i really likre its peak. i hate all the charaters exepct kel. i made the dumb mistake and changed fricking sunnys name to Name. i dont liie how your able to change his name because it messes with the story yo. i also almost changed his name to something stupid and chilly immature. its a very good and epically watermelonly cute game but i think some of the gameplay is so long ande unnessacey bruh. also why is the game called omori.. i havent finished the game so thats probablty lwhy i dont know. it make me sad mari die stuoid sunny imn ragiung and smoke is coming out of t=my ears, very cartoonish-y. /Epunching/sunny.

Omori is a hallmark and a trendsetter for the second RPGMaker horror boom (the first one happened in 2012 with games like The Mad Father, The Witch's House and Ib). Being mostly developed in the 2010s and released in 2020, it's a line in the sand between the pre and post AI era, clearly not made with any AI tools. Although it's not strictly a horror game, it is full of psychological horror elements and a breakdown of the human condition in response to trauma. It calls back to a lot of it's inspiration games, yume nikki being a major one to tell a story where the RPG mechanics sometimes get in the way and make the storytelling drag by. It almost has too much game getting in the way of how interesting the story is. That storytelling isn't perfect of course, but it will keep you hooked as soon you realize you're looking for THE TRUTH. If you're a kid born in the 90s like I was, it knows your diaspora, and will target you with a precision strike on your 90s kid mind with callbacks to old videogames, long trips in the car, going to the beach, eating cool watermelon in the hot summer, taking photographs with an kodak instant film, and huddling around the TV early Saturday morning to watch cartoons. Most importantly, these, and a close look at what happens when you get old and start focusing on work/managing adult nonsense instead of those in-person hangouts you used to have, it will force you to analyze what you've lost and how you've changed over time.

i genuinely have no words for this masterpiece of a game
