Just added a feature to my game where you get chunked "downloads" of messages from your past. Paired with the notification badge, I think this now classifies as a horror game.

I love the puzzles in this game and all the cool, chunky world interactions. Make me insert a disk or press a clicky button and I’m sold. The terminal simulation is a LOT of fun to play with, and I want to see it in more games.
