Signalis

One of those artsy retro indie games where the jank is intentional. Reminds me a lot of the anime/manga that were popular around the turn of the millennium like Gunslinger Girls, Serial Experiments Lain, Chobits/Angelic Layer, and so on and so forth. A lot of focus on liminality between humanity and machinery, vaguely psychoanalytic, ostensibly theological, as well as a plot that left the viewer more melancholic than anything. I'm a big fan of video games where the medium is handmaiden to a discursive narrative. I liked the understated worldbuilding of Signalis.
