Solace-of-solitude - Time Loop Central

happy lunar new year! year of the bny

OH :(((

can you explain in stars and time to me? Is it a story you made or based on something? Is there a masterpost?

Nope, nothing I made! In Stars and Time is a turn-based RPG about its main protagonist Siffrin being trapped in a time loop!! :D Siffrin has to save the country by defeating the King and break the curse that's freezing people in time, alongside their companions Mirabelle, Isabeau, Odile, and Bonnie. But whenever he dies, he wakes back up in the meadow, and nobody else remembers what happened except for him. Then comes Loop, a star and the only other one to be aware of what Siffrin's experiencing.

It starts out nice then slowly turns into the saddest game I've ever had the honour of being emotionally crushed by, I had a REALLY good time playing it. Apparently the expected playtime is 22 hours but my first playthrough took 80 hours?? And I still managed to not get everything. I didn't tend to take many shortcuts

Here's the trailer if you want to see:

(Note: you can look up the rest of the content warnings for more information if needed, but ISAT contains themes of death, mental illness, and violence)

The game is available on Steam, Nintendo Switch, PS4, and PS5. I have it for the Switch

As for a masterpost... sort of? Insertdisc5, the game's developer, has a pinned post. I have the links to my liveblogging in my profile bio, but those are filled with spoilers.

It's a nice game. I like it <3 a lot <3 a very not normal amount <3

Overwhelmingly positive ^ as they should be ^

I've been scream laughing at this for several days
