To What End? by Shugor
Controls:
Arrow Keys - Move
Z Key - Shoot Gel
X Key - Pause
The aim of the game is to get to the end of the level and beat the boss. simple enough. Pick up the blue gel on the ground and throw it at enemies to defeat them. The concept is simple but the game ended up being incredibly hard and infuriated all of us. I hope you enjoy.
oh yeah and on the far left side of the map is the potato room. The music changes so you'll know when you've got there. I suggest you dont go there.

Also this game is oddly depressing
p.s. Nice commentary
With all that said, I liked the art style and the theme and mood were superb, somber (which is appropriate for the topic at hand) and, to me, kind of frightening. The effort to find your body becomes almost a survival horror game, which is very interesting.
Overall, good job on the game! The mechanics may make the game a bit overly frustrating, but the difficulty reinforces the themes at play. Superb crafting in either case!
This game had a cute, yet eerie atmosphere. The colour palette was great. I enjoyed it a lot, but the walking speed is slow enough that I might not go back and beat it.
