The Struggle We Need
A downloadable game
This is a little interactive visual novel about three characters who are all struggling with similar problems in different situations.
But these struggles are not the kind you want to necessarily get rid of, they're the result of not living your life in the way you would really like to - or should, perhaps.
These struggles will cause us pain and suffering, sure. But this kind of suffering is positive, really.
Have fun. Hope you enjoy :)
