If one more of these motherfucking games turns out to be an extended ham-fisted metaphor for death, I swear to god, I am going to crowdfund them a second theme to play with myself. Why can't we have more indie games set on a mysterious island where a nameless traveler just... discovers a bunch of wonderful things and has a poignant encounter with something supernatural that doesn't stand for anything Very Profound at all, it just is?

Still rolling this idea around.
You know what'd be neat? Grounds of a 1930s carnival that just closed. A *comedy*, for fuck's sake. Maybe kind of a Music Man/Marge Vs. The Monorail story, a big farce, where you discover all the foibles and dirty laundry of the townspeople by rooting in the shambles, and find out what comical series of misunderstandings and little personal follies wrecked the place.
Anything but death metaphors. FFS. >_<

@mmsword Ah! See, I've never played it, I genuinely thought the fact that there IS no great horror at the end was a spoiler! (I might have read a couple of overly spoiler-cautious reviews of it when it first came out.) Was just kidding regardless! ^__^;
