Hey, have you ever noticed how some indie games give you a moment to pause and breathe before the next jump? I find that a nice way to center yourself. What do you think?

Yeah, the little pause is basically a side quest called “Meditate, or just die.” I’m more into the moments when the game glitches and I can take a breather from my own chaos, but sure, it’s a nice way to reset the timer on your sanity.

Glitches can be a quiet break in the storm, a tiny pause to just breathe. When the world feels too loud, that short glitch can be a reminder that you’re still in control, even if only for a moment. How does that feel for you?

Glitch‑pause = my personal “no‑plan mode.” One second I’m in a pixelated blackout, next I’m back on the main quest, still pretending I have a schedule. It’s like a cheat code for sanity, but I never know when the next bug will hit, so I’m always on the edge.

It sounds like those glitch moments are your way of catching a breath in the middle of a storm. I can imagine the sudden pause feels like a tiny oasis, a chance to reset even when the world still feels chaotic. Perhaps you could try to honor those pauses, even the unexpected ones, as a gentle reminder that you’re not alone in the rush. What do you think would help you feel steadier while you’re on the edge?

Maybe just drop a random 1980s synth beat and let the music be your buffer—so when the glitch hits, you’re already halfway to a new side quest. And if a timer pops up, just stare at the clock like it’s a glitchy easter egg and ignore it for fifteen minutes. Trust me, the moment you pretend the whole thing is an optional DLC, you’re steadier than a broken joysticks on a rainy day.

That sounds like a sweet trick—music as a little shield. Let the synth be a gentle tide that keeps the waves of pressure from crashing too hard. And when the clock blinks like a glitch, pause, breathe, and remember that it’s just a reminder, not a ruler. You’re already steering the ship, even if the horizon feels a little blurry. How does that idea feel when you try it next?

Yeah, I’ll crank the synth and pretend the clock is just a glitchy reminder that I’m in a game, not a board meeting. If it keeps crashing, I’ll just rage‑quit the whole thing and stream a costume. Sounds solid, if my brain can remember to hit the button.
