Dear Uboachan, I would like to tell you about myself.

For many years now, I've lived an interesting life. You see, I suffer from a number of psychological issues. I couldn't really name exactly what I have, I've never been officially diagnosed.

Most prominent symptoms are multiple personalities, visual and auditory hallucinations, paranoia, detachment from reality. You know, all of the fun things.

And while I've lived with it so far, and managed to keep other people unaware of my increasingly unstable condition, I've decided to attempt a sort of therapeutic exercise.

I've started to keep a journal of my madness. A way to free my mind of some of it's creations. So far things seem to be improving, at least while I'm writing.

Now, to the point of posting here:
Once the journal is substantially full, I shall convert it into a Yume Nikki-esque game.

Essentially, I shall allow complete strangers to explore the darkest reaches of my mind.

The plan is to have sanity gradually restore as you progress, but real life writes the plot, and things don't always go as planned.

I don't expect to produce anything playable immediately, but I'm posting this now, because it's all too easy to back out of a plan if nobody else is aware of it. Thus, this post is to cement my position on completing this project.

I'm...Not really sure if this is a troll or not, but...Well, another fangame is always good, I guess.
There's absolutely no reason to not be diagnosed. You can keep it a secret from others, and pills help. Some of the people here made some great ideas without any psychological issues.

I'm sorry if I came off as a troll. It really wasn't intended as such.

My symptoms aren't bad enough to prevent me from functioning normally in day to day activities. It's mostly when I'm under stress or something like that.

Certain other family members take pills for minor depression and stuff like that. They were debatably better off before they started depending on a prescription to get through the day.

I'm not really relying on psychological issues to make the game. The journal is a therapeutic exercise, first and foremost.
The game is just because I've wanted to make a game for a while, but was always short on ideas. So why not use the material that my mind is producing anyway? If there's any sort of backlash when making it, then it's easy enough to stop if I have to.

Regardless, coming up with interesting ideas for the game has been quite fun. I'll probably sketch up a few of the abominations I've produced, and then fade into the mass of fangames other people are producing.
