Panic! At the metro by valyagolev
(It's not really finished or "playable" but was a fun exploration with a bunch of very small experiments so play it if you care)
Non-violent platformer about self-discovery, in the belly of the city (the underground!! public transportation system)
You get a bunch of symptoms, and you don't even know what they are. Some make you more anxious, some calm you down, and some determine your reaction to anxiety. Ride the train, meet other nervous commuters, say "SORRY" a lot (or not), and have fun figuring yourself out – or restart to become a different person, psychologically.

Hi, nevermind not finishing, you'll scope better next time. I give good on mood and innovation, it is good to explore possibilities in game jams and that's something you did.

Interesting idea! I'd love to see it explored some more, whether its more symptoms or a larger area to explore. Overall a pretty neat "experiment" as you put it!

I really like being able to say sorry. My person was also deeply afraid of tunnels which I didn't realize till I walked around the tracks a bunch.

Love the name and angst concept, a little too resonant lmao. Would love to see this fully functional.

HI, Cool concept and idea. anxiety seems to play on the control a bit too much for my taste. the graphics are pretty cool and the change in the background while your anxiety is rising is a nice touch.
