I'll say the same as before - Check it in a different browser. If that doesn't work, I have no idea what's up. Fingers crossed!

I promise, it's a real game! Maybe try a different browser?
Puzzles are ok, the mechanics themselves are decent, could use more variety. The music is masterful. The whole thing could use more light, too dark.
But the story is SHIT ! And these kind of atmospheric games, the story should keep you wanting to play, either through silly humor or through interesting storyline. I stopped playing, i was so annoyed by boorish dialogue of these bland overly sensitive characters.
Geez, if i wanted that kind of drama i'd watch Twilight. They talk about sick rabbits, dead cats, afterlife, marriage, stairs and "nothingness"... my god. It's like a bad emo poem (as if there's any other kind). a good story has a head,middle and a tail.
At the very start the game sets up no ground-work except that this girl likes to smoke and that she doesnt like psychotherapy. Then she's obsessed about another girl's boyfriend who becomes the villain for no other reason than SOMEONE HAS TO BE even tho, in his own way, he's just as fucked-up as they are but at least he has the decency to not bother me with all this emo bullshit...
And then a few levels later she's all pissy that the STRANGER shrink died. As he were her father. Even the druggie STRANGER she met in a dark alley joins in on the emo parade. He didn0t even see the guy ONCE!
Who are these people and why should i care about Freud "keeling over"? This comes out of nowhere and suddenly becomes the center-point. I can come to no other conclusion than these people ENJOY being emotional wrecks.
Was this script written while on drugs? Likely.
They say "smoking is a sign of weakness". Judging bay this game it's a sign of being a pissy bitch.
AVOID unless you like being dragged into a hole of meaningless depressing ramblings.
I really wanted to love this game. It's an interesting idea. The word bubbles sucked. That system was just awful. They should have been stationary and much less frequent. The story got bogged down with the constant moving bubbles of pointless bickering. I often just skipped the entire discussion. Also, there should be a quality setting so i can degrade the already poor quality. My computer isn't that great, but this game is hard to play when it's just constantly lagging. Unless i some how missed the quality button when mashing all of the keys on my keyboard.
Am I missing something or does the game just not save on Firefox? I've tried to play like 9 times in the past 3 days and every time I press start, it puts me back at the first level where you're talking to the doctor. Then I press back to menu and it only pulls the first level up as unlocked. I got through almost half the game the first time I played (Its really that good) but when I came back a few hours later it started me over. Is there a hidden continue button I'm just not seeing or what? I still give it two stars because the game play and storyline are both amazing, but i can't just play the whole game in one sitting.
