I only discovered Space Funeral last year (which had such a good sound selection that it propelled me to go on a personal journey of musical exploration) and so this series was a welcome new find. I binged it all in a day. Each episode always feels fresh and never repetitive, dangling newfound swords of damocles over BB's murder-prone head. They all capture well the otherworldly, unpredictable, and sometimes numinous feelings of dreams. It's also nice to see the episodes get gradually more technically complex and artistically refined. BB also just has an appealing art style and character- she's like a perverse Nancy Drew who runs headlong into mystery and certain death and yet somehow always pops out on the other end unscathed, having learned nothing other than that she won't be paid for any of her efforts.
One comment from a design point(spoilers): I've found that chase sequences are a little less scary the further I go in the series because I know that if I get caught (or, at least feel this way. I try not to get caught) that BB will just get transported somewhere that will advance the plot. They're still mostly tense and anxiety-inducing, but I wonder if there's a way to counteract the player's gradual acclamation to this throughout the series (if this even should matter)? Anyway, this is a very minor point and this series is otherwise masterful in many ways. I can't wait for the next installment!
Also, I was very thankful to have watched that video of those guys eating at all the Rainforest Cafes so that I could appreciate the final episode better.
As one of the few people who knew it was you (I don't remember how I know; someone spoiled in the notes to a Tumblr post or a YouTube comment) I'm glad to see the cat out of the bag. These have been my favourite work of yours since Space Funeral

somehow, i never found these! there's a whole world of wonders all around us
Fantastic!
Lovely work. enjoyed these games very much.
Great stuff!
Every one of these is great. I particularly like Drool, Blood, and Ears. Excellent soundtrack, too.
So, Drool was the first one but it is shown as between hands and eyes, does that mean that it takes place between them?
as far as I am concerned - yes... I think it's voice-hands-drool-eyes-flesh-blood-ears-heart
How do you know?
Just judging by the upload order on the original gamejolt page
Really? That’s weird, I could have sworn that Drool was first, that’s why it didn’t have a realistic scene.
Drool does have a realistic scene, get caught by tammy and you can find it
actually drool is the third one :P
SWAG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
have really enjoyed these games!! thanks for making em
big fan

They were made by thecatamites??!! This is a real-life twist ending I never saw coming
Same, I was a fan of thecatamites a while ago, and recently discovered the killer series which I am also a fan of. This is great!
this was You the whole time????? are you joking me. amazing
It's almost here!
I've only played the first 3 so far, but they're pretty good.

Edit: I've played them all now, can't wait for the last one!
Yesssss! I was hoping they would be collected in an anthology game! Art is cool too.
YEAAAH
really love the posters for these
'narrative', sweet
hopefully there will be a remastered (with voice actors and secrets) in a future
oops, anyway i don't think expectations
Nevermind...
why would you want that? they're fine as they are
I think I have had a nightmare of this once
A future modern classic series.
i am glad i played all episodes .. play all this game
thank you I love these games so much
Favourite franchise
This looks really cool!
