Those eyes! That hair! You're like a movie star! I must take your picture!
It's tempting to say that the ending is yet-another-surreal-end (tm), but I'm willing to have faith the end will clear up. I wasn't expecting the credits to roll so soon.

Also if anyone still wants that copy of Year Walk, then draw me a picture.

Here ya' go.



PM me if I win by default.
PM me if I don't.
No one PMs me anymore.

I love it because you tried and because it's lovely. So you should be getting something, though I sadly don't have PM's so it'll be sent through Mech Slut.

Package received. Thanks, Niggurath!

Again, I found it very fascinating that I'd never heard of the "Year Walk" practice before this game, neither had my girlfriend who knows a lot about folklore and such.

I've checked a few interviews about the game and, Well, mostly the inspiration came like this...

And so when we finished up [Simogo’s third iOS game] Beat Sneak Bandit, Jonas [Tarestad, writer] showed me his script for a short movie he called "Årsgång". The structure of årsgång or ‘year walking’ is almost like a game with rules, so it was natural that his script reminded me of a game. (source)

I actually hope this is a real myth, but if it wasn't, it is now thanks to wikiality.
