The Day The Laughter Stopped

A game developed for Ludum Dare #28 that holds a pretty heavy and powerful message.  Simple design and mechanics speak volumes in this Indie game.

**TRIGGER WARNING**

Without giving away what happens, I will say that it is based on a very heavy subject material.  There is a trigger warning on the game too.  And while going through the game, if you feel the need to stop, you should.

It is a very, very hard game to play (hard as in emotionally-trying).  It will hit you hard, and it may be unfortunately close to home for most.  It’s worth the five minutes though.  And after playing, take a look at the statistics of the choices most people have made.  Very moving, very powerful and disturbing.

Very powerful.
