Why In Stars And Time Is The Perfect Time Loop Game 

Commenting to help this out in the algorithm so more people play this masterpiece.

The muscle memory is so real. There where so many times I went on auto pilot. I would walk into the head maidens office without even thinking and wonder why I did that? Then remember I needed the key here.

I really really want this game to become super popular. I need a vibrant thriving fandom to fuel my own hyper fixation

Watching this has taught me that what you described "the final loop" is the exact same point I shelved the game for getting too heavy to keep going... The fact that I now know how close I am to the end, I'm ready to go back and finish things.

Every time I bring up how this game became my favorite game, all my friends look at me in confusion since they've never heard of it. So now I want to make sure as many people get to see this game that has really helped me better discover myself.

This is absolutely one of my favorite games! I immediately went into it blind after seeing the art from the game, and I'm glad I did. It's worth the experience, and despite exploring as much as I could, there are still secrets I missed. Minor spoilers ahead! I like all the quality of life stuff the game includes. The option to fast forward dialogue, choose where you loop back, save your party members' experience and levels at save points, and unlock all doors when looping to different floors after you've found all the keys. There are tears everywhere too, so it's absolutely possible to loop around easily and never feel like you need to use the dagger. I did unlock the option to use the dagger, but felt bad and never used it. Loop is able to take the option away as well if you have Siffrin talk to them without using the dagger. Very fun game. Love all the details and craft put into it.

When I want to describe to someone how important it is that you feel frustrated with the repetition, it’s always the Memory of Sadnesses scene that I bring up. It’s vital that you’re as fed up as Siffrin is of dealing with the tutorial sadness for that scene to properly get the message across that the tedium of the loops are having a severe mental toll on Siffrin as well as you. Far and away my favorite scene in the entire game, as well as my favorite memory due to the implications of what kind of energy Siffrin must be giving off with that memory in the forefront of his mind to make the sadnesses run in terror.

30 hours sunk in to get 100%, and the amount of care they put in every single interaction still makes me awestruck every time I think about it, like the achievement to do the”happy ending” three times or the “kinda sus” achievement were joys to get through, even if I did have to play through the game fully, without looping ahead, like 5 times

Outer wilds used to be my #1, it has since been dethroned. This game is amazing and disturbing, and I even had to step away from the game a few times. Glad this game is getting at least a little more recognition.

Ever since I watched a play through of this game, I’ve been feeling Dejavu far more

ISaT is genuinely the best game ive ever gotten into, and to think i found out about it through a random twitter reply

This game was such an emotional roller coaster for me and most of the time my mood matched that of Siffirin in the story, which I found amazing. All the pieces you need are mostly in front of you from the start, so there are a lot of "oh, I know where I can find that." moments if you took the time to thoroughly examine everything on your first few runs. The thing I like the most is how you can tell there is a lot of thought put into how the other party members react to how Siffirin change, it's honestly impressive how authentic it all feels and some of those reactions you can provoke by doing things that would naturally make them worry. Odile confronting you after beating the king if you make too many strange actions is one of my favorite parts of this game.

What a great video!! I agree, it's befuddling how everyone missed this gem. My friends have learned to be wary of me whenever the topic of games comes up, because I explode in enthusiasm. I am going to send this video to so many people. Thanks!

I'm still waiting for in stars and time to blow up. I KNOW it will it's a PHENOMENAL game and the word of mouth spreading of it is very much a slow creep but i want it to be a major phenomenon so bad. However i do know that word of mouth is spreading it! Every person ive gotten to play the game has passed the word along to at LEAST one other person. Im sure it will get big eventually.

I love ISAT so much! The characters are all lovable and their struggles, conflicts and dynamics with each other feel *real*.

I cannot express just how much I adore this game

I am so glad that more people are discovering this, I absolutely adore everything about it. The characters, the story + the gameplay are all perfect!

I’m so glad this is on console cus this video definitely sold me on it

god I love In Stars and Time so much! If anyone here hasn't played it, please DO IT! Don't spoil yourself either! EDIT: DON'T FINISH WATCHING THIS VIDEO, IT SPOILS IN STARS AND TIME

Gonna watch this later, but commenting now to help boost! I love this game, and I honestly believe its one of the best indie titles of all time.

I cannot remember the last time a game got me invested in its characters so quickly and so deeply, and so viciously used that against me

Fantastic video. I think I need to be in a certain mindset before I attack a game known to have “tedium as a game mechanic!” But I think I get why it is there, based on your explanation. Will keep this game in mind.

I love ISAT so fucking much... I need that more people play this beautiful game

Feeding the algorithm, this is my new favorite game. PLAY IT

just gonna say it, it probably doesn't count in the same way, but slay the princess came out recently as well and also has a sort of, time loop mechanic, or well, flavor to the story although it is more dense in it's cosmic horror but it's also a game I feel should be more widely seen because yes they are both 20 bucks and worth every penny

This game's amazing, I wish it were more popular. Thanks for making this video to get the game out there! (also sorry but I need to correct you - Undertale was made with GameMaker Studio, not RPG Maker)

What I genuinely love about act 5 is that it fucks with you. The game KNOWS that navigating the house is pure muscle memory at this point and it uses that against you and it's just fucking brilliant

I love this game so much! I really hope this video picks up, it's a hidden gem just as the game is.

Ah yes, the game that lives in my head rent free

I adore this game. So so so so much. It is so well written, so wonderful and charming and cruel at the same time. This game had me in tears on multiple occasions.

This is one of the only games I have actively replayed to get 100% which I think is a testament to how amazing this game is.

Great video!!

More love for this game!

i just finished ISAT! it's really such a good game, and very skilled at making you feel how siffrin does. so glad more people are hearing about it!

so happy to see people love this game as much as i do!

Great video! I massively enjoyed this game.

This game much like this channel needs more love!

It's such a good game.

This game deserves to be the next big thing, it has so much love and time(ha!) poured into it

Yippe!! Its an essay video!!

This game deserves so much more attention! 1000/10 would play over and over and over and over and over and over and ove-

Commenting for the big boy rythm

i love how this fandom is so small that i recognize a bunch of the people in this comment section

I love this game

YEAAAA!!! ISAT IS SO GOOD!!!

One of the best games ever

i love this game

Go go gadget algorithm boost!

This is my GOTY.

Honestly Isat is on the short list for goty for 2024 my only complaint is that your companions also experienced the fucked up hall way in act 5

Commenting to push the video

Yaaasssttt😊

game of the decade fr ✌️

Play this game people! It’s absolutely amazing!!

I think what you refer to as Last Loop is a tad too much spoiler for my liking. As much as it's an epitome of why this game is great (I kept pausing my game during the dialogue, wondering whether soundtrack incorporated rapid and rabid heartbeat as part of the agitation, or whether it was my own heart wrenching at the pain inflicted on the companions), Act 5 feels best to be experienced completely blind and disoriented, like the worst hungover-withdrawal imaginable, blindsided by every twist and turn.

JELLO CONVINCED ME TO PLAY IT AND ITS THE BEST GAME I HAVE EVER PLAYED

It’s an amazing game

Please please please play ISAT, people. Its SO good.

🎉

IN STARS AND TIME MENTION

speaking from experience, do NOT play this game for 6 hours in a row at midnight and beat the game at 6am only to sob yourself to sleep. great game i felt like everyone else was an npc for a week after finishing it 10/10 would recommend (im serious go play it)

Commenting not for the algorithm but for the youtuber posting this, insertdisc5 aka the funkiest little gremlin
