sally faaaaaaace

i finished sally face! i had to stop because i messed something up and it didn't autosave, so i had to restart quite a ways back. i got to where i was thankfully and ended up beating the game. i really enjoyed the story, i thought it was so interesting how the mystery weaved together and the doubts arising about sal. i loved his relationships with his friends, how true they felt and also how sal and larry felt very homoerotic (always appreciate it). the fifth chapter at the start was really fun, i loved the surreality of it. many other people feel the ending was disappointing but i thought it tied up pretty nicely, especially if you interact with a certain character and get to know them - then it feels as if it makes a lot of sense and isn't supposed to be a huge build up, just a subtle one. i loved the feel of it, it felt very early adult swim era but with more wholesome content and the art style especially appealed to me in a way that surprised me. i thought i wasn't going to be into it. the more time i spend with the game, the more i really began to cherish it. i enjoyed watching the characters grow up too, that made it easier for me to get attached to them.

anyway if you love storylines with ghosts, cults, the end of the world and masks - i recommend it highly. it's always teetering on that edge of uneasiness and yet, has beautiful and fragile moments as well. that's what i appreciate in a game!
