How We Spoke Before by Kendra Parrish and Matthew Matheson

Explore a beautiful island with an ugly past to decipher a dead language.

Content Note: 'How We Spoke Before' is a celebration of language revitalization. It is a hopeful and bright game but does touch on the colonialist policies and racist attitudes that contribute to language loss and cultural genocide. Guard your mental health and engage with this game only when you feel emotionally prepared to do so. 

Controls: WASD to walk, E when prompted to interact, N to toggle notebook, Esc to access volume controls or quit the game.

I love the game! But using A and D for camera movement is very nauseating. Also, what is a fennypotectifshell?

Thanks - we'll look into switching the nav system for our next release!

Also, I think the line is "for any protective shell"

Oh, thanks. It just sounded like one word
