@trysdyn i was trying to remember the name of it a few days ago and couldn't, then while writing a list of recommendations for someone else it suddenly came to us (and we added it to the list under the heading "if you want to experience something truly terrible", alongside hydlide, but with extra caveats and "just go watch a speedrun or something really" on hoshi wo miru hito)

@Felthry Honestly Dowolff's speedrun doesn't properly encapsulate the horror because he's gotten so used to it and works around the true brokenness like "Every time you exit an area you reappear at a pseudorandom location" :P
