It hurtsssss 😭😭😭
QUE JOGO LINDO!!! quase chorei, nao queria divorcio 💔
I've never been moved to tears by a game before, but this one genuinely touched me. As someone who's especially sensitive to themes of farewell, I FOUND MYSELF TRYING TO HOLD BACK TEARS BUT ENDED UP CRYING A LOT. I didn't know there's 2 endings until i read the description and.. WOW I GOT THE BITTER ONE.
Anyway.. great game! love it so much. Definitely not asking for..
*cough*
non-divorce route.LOVE IT!
No game like this has ever made me cry, but this one is clearly the exception! I loved every second playing it and replaying it. It hurt a lot to do the anxiety routes but I wanted to try the full experience! ❤️
I highly doubt they will make an alternative route where we can reconcile with marley But would you agree to a Spanish translation? I know what I'm asking is too much, but I'd love for there to be a Spanish translation! But if there isn't, it wouldn't be a problem. I would gladly play this game more than ten times again.
Thank you so much for playing! It means a lot to me and the team that the game touched you this much.
If a volunteeer translator is up for it, I’d love to have the game in Spanish as well! =)
I need a non-divorce route please
cried at this. everything just remind me of him. how he acts, how he type, how hes trying to hide his pain and is a hard worker, how hes the one whos always trying to make me happy. too bad i have attachment avoidant issues. i couldnt love him from the start.
ANYWAYSSSSS...
good stories, bring me flashback of me exactly bringing up the break up,, can you, *cough cough* non angst one one day?? thank you!!
sincerly, from stranger in the internet. xoxo
Okay I LOVED this so much, both routes were really fun to play. and not only did I have fun, I learned some things or two about the importance of communication, not bottling things up, accepting hard things and letting go of things that just won't last. Thank you for creating this game! <3
Glad to hear that our divorce game touched you somehow! Thanks for playing <3
i could never love a man without body hair
valid tbh
I DONT WANT TO DIVORCE HIM HES SO SWEET
I already fell in love with this man,I felt bad for having to divorce him </3
when I saw the title,I thought it would be a lighthearted joke game and didn’t expect a heartbreaking and well written game T_T
I felt so guilty, I had to sit and think about my decisions for about three hours. Not overexaggerating, this made me feel guilty and remorseful. I am hardly moved by emotions, especially negative ones. I love this game and I will be recommending everyone I know to play this. W game, I will be playing this again tomorrow.
Why do you feel guilty (ive not yet played the game)
You will soon see...
fucking cried so hard gods this is just. this is amazingly written, it rips your heart out and shoves it back in … this is a beautiful fucking game fuck im in such pain
Thank you so much for the compliment on the writing ;w; I’m happy that you enjoyed the game!
I don't think I've ever cried so hard at a game.
This genuinely made me SOB. I am not an emotional person. But this game just jabbed at something that made me cry. The sweet, bubbly man at the beginning and depending on which route you take; things turn so much. If I had the chance of playing this again for the first time, I would.
Man this hurts..
10/10 but would never want to feel like this again :D
i hate this in the best way possible made me sob
i criedw this i didnt want it to end
is that cove in ur pfp??? 🤩
I can't stop crying
no baby pls don’t divorce me haha you’re so sexy
i divorced my wife once
eww....
dawg what :sob:
Lmaoooo 😭
why is there a divorce simulator lmaooo
I didn't expect it to be so realistic about those emotions. I was sad that we have to divorce that adorable man at the beginning but as I continue I become to understand why we have to. I really love how the story unfolds. <3
CONGRATULATIONS this effectively made me nauseous AND called out my self-sabotaging tendencies thankssss *cries*
The way I would have INSTANTLY folded a day after the authentic conversation(╥﹏╥). I really wish they gave a shot ya know? it's the first time they're finally looking at each other transparently. Vulnerably and acknowledging their contribution to the player's prospect of divorce.
Even though they would have to address the limit of compromising needs again. With the newfound open communication (if the affection is still there) why not try the relationship again?
cry so hard, can’t stop. how can i stop crying in the middle of the night T_T
cried
lo siento pero lo amo tanto que no puedo hacerle esto (entiendanme, no puedo con esto)
Quiero jugarlo pero, me pasa un poco así, no sé como sentirme al respecto. :(
jugalo, es una bonita experiencia aunque me dolio horrible en el corazon
The Cats obsession is worse than the cheating allegation to be sure
I really didn’t know what to expect going into a game about divorce, but it was so well done! I felt the frustration of trying to say something while someone isn’t listening, the sadness and heartbreak of a relationship that just isn’t going to work out. I loved how much this made me feel, and I loved that it is possible for both parties to acknowledge their faults. The music worked beautifully with the story, and I also loved the extra window that popped up so that we could work though our thoughts privately as well. I admit I was a bit confused about the setup of the desktop screen when I first started the game, but I really liked it once I figured it out!
Overall, great story! And I loved how feelings could still be messy and people didn’t always say the perfect things in order to end things amicably. I haven’t played the messy route yet because I don’t know if I can handle it right now, but I’m very curious about it!
damm... yk ahhh my tears stop pls for a sec
anyway a great sad story I tho there is a better ending hnn.. my nose
but its great but as my tears start dancing out of my eyes I see the letter and what do you think has happend??? it start dancing MORE!
soo thanks for this experience ദ്ദി ༎ຶ‿༎ຶ )
It is a feat of this game's amazing writing that in about 20 minutes, I was able to fall in love with Marley, and then experience an absolutely devastating heartbreak as Divorcette, well, divorces him. This game does not hold its punches, and I'll be thinking about this game for a very long time!!
its 4am and i can tstop crying
how am i goign to sleep bruh
im so devastated like what do i do with msyelf
im cuddling with my dog ofmg im so sad liekr eally i cant stop crying
i think i cried for like an hour straight, i couldn't even do the messy route because i liked him so much and couldn't bare to make a fuzz.
sobbed so hard on my stream playing this... 10/10 its perfect
I am now sad. Five stars. Would divorce again. 👏
i hope theres a wife verison soon:)
The endings are too well written and real, amicable route made me jump a few times cause some parts in it remind me of my last conversation with my ex. Also love the typos when he's angry, almost cry from the wall of i̶n̶s̶u̶l̶t̶ text he threw at me in messy route (I sneezed instead)
I honestly did cry, I wish they would've communicated better so that this didn't happen
