Clinical Trial

oh voy a ver de que trata este juego

This is probably one of the most fascinating games I've played this year, It has such an interesting story and I loved it in the spine-chillingly way possible

Spoilers Below:







I loved the twist at the end, and I love that when Lee never gave Angel her jacket I KNEW there was something about that but I completely forgot about it during the time they spend during his house, you get a sense that he genuinely is a nice guy that means well and then the twist happens Lee never giving angel her jacket is such a cool foreshadowing of what was to come

It's weird that I still wanted them to have somewhat of a happy ending, thats why I accepted the whole way through, even as fucked up as it is


It's such a eerie and fucked up twist, I honestly thought it would just end with both of them just having a happy ending (a more sane happy ending lol)


I gotta say, this game is really well written too, I loved it everytime Lee and Angel talked to each other, it feels real in a way

Amazing game overall, genuinely great

Wow... that was such an experience. Spoilers follow.

The main part of this story that I felt so fascinated by was my amount of trust in Lee throughout. At the start, I saw nothing wrong and thought he was really nice. Then, when Angel vented about what happened, I got so paranoid that Lee would do the same thing for some reason. Anxiety + trauma in that general area, I guess. Then came the bath scene, and with how he acted I started trusting him again. And then, maybe the most strangely, I didn't stop trusting him. The storytelling here is incredible.

Also I swear I caught myself doing the same exact thing as one of Angel's sprites when it first showed up, they're so like me!

Thanks to anyone who bothered to read this lol

It broke my heart, my brain, and I probably feel too much for and/or relate to Angel and Lee. That alone scares me a fair.

By most means, a successful suspense/eerie/horror tale. Slow burn. I like that kind of media.

I only watched a playthrough of Clinical Trial, but I felt compelled to come here and leave a comment. I only clicked on the video because I wanted some background noise while I knitted and the artstyle looked nice, but an hour in, I was utterly hooked ! This little game is going to stay stuck in my brain for a while, let me tell you. 

It's the way the dialogue is written, it makes the characters extremely compelling (and also, yay ! ADHD/autism rep !). And also the themes ! They're treated with tact without coddling or censorship, this story felt very mature in the best way. Also big feel for Angel :(

Have a nice day, I hope to see more art from you !

I don't know how to even begin to express this right

I came here because I watched a youtube video criticizing the ending of this game.  I agreed with the youtuber and felt thoroughly betrayed.  I thought this was the exact kind of media that negatively affects my mental health.  I couldn't stop thinking about the characters because their concepts intrigued me so much, and the perception I had of them was negatively affecting the severe mental health spiral I was already in

So, after a few days, I caved and decided to play it myself, out of morbid curiosity and some level of self-destructive intent

I didn't end up agreeing with that youtuber.  Clinical Trial didn't make my spiral worse.  I started processing deep seeded childhood trauma.  I started feeling like I can love myself again.  I, just a few hours ago, started feeling out of fight or flight for the first time in as long as I can remember.  I have never felt like this before

I've been looking for media like this for a long time.  Media that depicts morally grey relationships and people without fetishizing or condemning them.  Media that will meet me where I'm at, or at least part of the way

This is exactly what I needed

Thank you

Thank you

one thing to note is that the cutscenes are super long at times so its hard to save the game

also I like how its free since im a brokie lol W game fr no cap

I really really really really really like the world building and immersion, how they go into scientific topics and stuff and its so good and I actually learned a lot of new words, terms, and concepts from this game just from the world building alone which, if I haven't made myself clear yet, I throughly enjoyed.

Also the twist was very good and the music when the shrine is revealed is good too it makes it a very dramatic and scary moment.

Also looking back at earlier parts of the game you can see how the past explains the future like how Angela got scared at the clinical trial at one point and was saying no in her head and other things not coming to my ming right now that happen at the beginning that get explained in the future or vice versa.

All in all basically what I'm trying to say is the world building is very nice and human, and the twist is good, and I like how the story interacts and builds upon itself and can see how things relate or caused each other.

the BEST RPG i've played EVER THANK YOU FOR CREATING IT

SPOILERS FOR THE GAME!

SPOILERS FOR THE GAME!

I DID WARN YOU.

master piece I've only gotten one of the endings but the game was amazing the story telling was incredible. angle is my personal fav. i was surprised how near the end lee ended up killing someone.but i say it was a amazing plot twist idea

Thank you for creating this game. While watching streaming updates, I fell in love with it and just had to play it myself. This is my first time signing up on a site other than Steam to play a game directly. The artwork is also incredibly beautiful. From a Korean player, with all my affection.

I made an account strictly to say, hands down one of the BEST rpg's I've played. I think the slow story telling was just so nice for development. The switch near the end gave me GOOSEBUMPS, the music matched the scenes wonderfully! I enjoyed every second of this game, through and through. I genuinely was in shock in a few bits. I'm so sad that it wasn't longer... This RPG was like a movie you wish never ended. I pray that Homie gets a chance to read this. I think your story was just beautiful, and I really hope there could be a 2nd part to this story, although I find it really hard to determine what could happen next. THANK YOU HOMIE, for giving everyone who has played this game, a wonderful 3 hour experience. I love Angul, I love Lee, and I would pay heeps if another 'Clinical Trial" RPG was made, especially with these two freaks lol. I absolutely enjoyed it, Thank you...

need to say that I LOVE THIS GAME and I LOVE Lee😭 , he’s so weird and precious.
(Guess I need to purchase a Lee pillow now)

Hope to see more art or content about them and thank you for making such a beautiful story😣🫶❤️

im gonna talk about my opinion on the game, endings and all
SPOILERS









made an account just to say that this game was really, and i mean REALLY REALLY good until they turned lee into a weirdo murderer stalker

ill admit the bait and switch from what seemed like a romance of 2 broken people helping each other back up and genuinely connecting to just a really, dark romance in just 5 minutes of gameplay was good bait and switch, but it was too good to the point where i felt like i was successfully trapped in a cage for the rest of the game unable to get the bait that led me in the trap in the first place

that definitely sounds like I'm being dramatic, but it just really upsetted me when the story took a turn like that. I honestly would've been fine with lee just killing the dude and the dark turns being just at that, but did the stalker shrine have to get so odd? the whole thing with the jacket really turned me off the game from that point on cause of how weird and unexpected that was. also the endings are just really unsatisfying, its either you choose to blindly go with a dude who's clearly a weirdo and in doing so your pretty much saying "hey its okay to have a stalker shrine of certain people you like and kill others for people you like but barely know" or you refuse to be with the said guy just for him to off himself not even 10 minutes later, leaving you to go back to the same day to day grind with no one to care about you anymore, not even having a job, and being linked to a murder case that you have no good alibi for, which just means your pretty much confirmed to be set in jail for a very long time, which again, is just really disappointing, its so disappointing it makes me want to mod a good ending for the game and i don't even have coding experience!

Its just so unsatisfying, i wish there was a 3rd ending you could get that's truly a good ending where lee doesn't end up being such a weirdo, like maybe Angela remembers to grab her jacket before she left on week 6 (or 5, cant remember) and that gets Lee to start thinking like "Why would i even think about taking her jacket? and think about even doing certain stuff with it.." as a sort of wake up call for him to get his shit together and actually go through with taking down the stalker shrine before on week 8 when Angela comes over. I'm not good at suggestions, but there's many ways to make a good ending where Lee doesn't end up being such a weirdo in the end, and giving you more choices other than just letting him off himself for refusing like a human being would, or basically telling him its okay to do that for random people you barely know.

anyways that's the end of my rant, feel free to reply

glad to see you back, playing it rn, will leave a review later

actually, having issues with the Mac download, says to move the .app to another folder but I have and there's no change, any clue on your side?

edit two: fixed, on it

last edit:

Im not good at doing reviews, I don't think I am anyway, so bear with me

I've done the main two routes, 1: they're both very well written and 2: while I don't agree with the rest in terms of this being groundbreaking, I don't necessarily think that's what you wanted, you wanted to tell a story, a good one, and you did, I loved it; as an CSA, SA survivor, and general weirdo, I really appreciate it for what it is

The music was great, the art better, it was nice seeing bunny in this, the characters were beautifully written, and even as a level headed human, I was sad about rejecting Lee because I knew what he was going to do; I don't feel as conflicted as others in all honesty but I also think it's a shit situation on both sides, even with what Lee did he deserved help in jail (Fuck Brandon tho)

The third act should have been longer, is my only real complaint

Can't wait to see more form you, here or in whatever platform you migrate to, I know I said it before but I really mean it, it's nice seeing you back

Coincidentally this made me realize that I may have inattentive adhd so... thank you for that lol, will get back to you if I ever get a diagnosis :,]

created an account only to say that this game is truly peak, i was able to connect on a personal level with the characters, phenomenal writing, dude below described my feelings perfectly

I have never ever in my entire life experienced a story that has made me feel this way. The characters and the environment felt so real, and the dynamic between the leads is uniquely funny, endearing, haunting and empathetic all at once. Both endings were absolutely heart-wrenching and unforgettable. The art and music were so beautiful- not mention the bonus material! Absolutely stunning! This game is a masterpiece, I'm genuinely going straight to making fanart as soon as I post this comment.

I really don't have much to say that hasn't already been said. Phenomenal work. Very realistic writing for both main characters. I loved every minute. I look forward to any future projects you may make.

A wonderful game. Absolutely suspenseful. Well written. 
As someone with ADHD and Autism (suspected, undiagnosed due to reasons very familiar to Angel), the dialogue and character work were fantastic. I wish I hadn't been spoiled on some of the aspects of the game but it didn't detract from the suspense or impact in the slightest. Well done. 
Thank you. 

This is one of those pieces of media that'll sit around in your head for a while as you try to process and figure out if you're impressed/satisfied or disturbed. Nevertheless, it was a great game that, for better or for worse, will definitely haunt me!

The characters were really well-written, the dialogue was refreshingly natural, and the setting was a mix of calm and eerie. It kept me on edge from the start, which I didn't expect. 

5 stars from me for sure. Amazing work.

• interesting, complex & fleshed out characters
• natural-sounding, character-consistent dialogue (with a healthy dose of subtext)
• third piece of glazing (damn i wanted to complete the rule of 3)

but seriously, wow. i’m gonna be thinking about this game for a while…good job!

I have never been more conflicted on a piece of media. Well done I suppose.

it was good , perfect lenght and all

nice

Hello!

I have experienced your game. I like it very much.

I want to write a short story and use the plot of this game.

Thank you for reading it all. It's okay if you don't give it to me.

(I used Google translate so the words are a bit confusing, thank you very much)

played it all on a random tuesday last month and let me tell you, i LOVED it. 

such a beautifully written story, the dialogues are very natural and they make you feel like you're experiencing it all first hand, especially at the beggining where everything seems to be so slow and repetitive (which isn't bad at all, i like slow paced games).

i'm obssessed with angel as a character and all their struggles; from their identity to the unbearably lonely life they have to manage, and their artistic ways of coping. idk i just love them very much :')

lee as well is such a well made character, you barely see his true nature, but from what you do see it becomes clear he also struggles a lot.

thank you for sharing this experience with us online!

THAT WAS BEAUTIFUL!!! I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!
I need more of Angel and Lee, I hope they appear in futere projects or in some novel or webcomic, they are beatiful together :3 <3

I PLAYED FINISHED THE GAME AND IT WAS AMAZING
