I just finished and got the nurture ending but oh my god this is one of those games that's going to stick with and haunt me for decades. The slow build up of the characters from seeing them as their archtypes (an 'innocent' driver and the hiker who murders him) to finding out how complex they are and what kind of story they have to tell was amazing!! It's one of those games I wish I could play for the first time all over again and it's truly underrated <3
What a cool game. A great idea executed VERY well. I enjoyed it quite a bit.
I played it for my Bloodcurdling Barrage, in which I do daily videos for all of October. I don't get to do visual novels often, and especially not ones so well written, so this was a real treat.
Cried while playing AND after finishing all the endings. It's such an interesting concept for a game and it's executed wonderfully. I'm no longer the same person I was before playing this, I'm going to go insane thinking about what happened to them after the true ending. Play this game, it's worth it.
oh my god that was SO GODDANG GOOD! i am not patience enough to play it through one more time so i only played the nuture ending, but it really satisfies me. i love it so much. thank you for this amazing story. i'd throw money at ur way if im not a broke college student
this was. amazing. this game is SO good!! aghh i love the story and when they were holding hands it was so sweet bc then AHAFLKJH i dont wnana spoil it!! this is SO good omg.
this is one of my favorite games of all time!!! i've played it twice now and i've gotten all the endings, and it's an absolute masterpiece!!! the characters are so complex and well-written, i love both the hiker and the driver a ton! the art style is so cool and i love the stylistic choice of keeping all the cgs two colors. it makes me cry every time!
i have noticed a sort of glitch though? after 8-o'clock, i can only play ending 12 until i reach the true endings. once again, great game!!
I just spent about two hours playing this game over and over until I got the true ending. It is absolutely fascinating and so lovingly crafted! I ADORE time loops, meta narratives, and stories that change over time, and this was not only right up my alley but exactly the kind of thing I look for in those stories. So many looping narratives are still limited, giving you only a few building variations, and those are still often fantastic, but this game just kept building on itself until it reached a satisfying conclusion that truly felt like it encompassed all those individual experiences. I loved how the game shifted as you completed enough of the endings, how more and more was revealed in each loop, how the story swapped between the two characters to give them both unique perspectives, how your understanding of the characters evolves over time.. and after all that, I still have a bunch of endings along the way to go back and find.
Everything about this project was gorgeous, from the art to the writing to the music and the mechanics. It was a joy to play and I'd love to come back sometime and see what else it has in store!
No I'm feeling that special hollowness that only this kind of sad story gives me... I'm not crying but I feel like I should be. I want the driver and the hiker to be okay... I ache
played through all the endings together with a couple friends after one reccomended it to me and DAMN this is good. genuinely tense atmosphere with super strong messages and a lot of room for analyzation- id gotten genuinely invested to the characters by the end, which is a feat for something that lasted two hours. super super underrated <3
this is based on the story of the scorpion and the frog, right? i think i read a similar version of it once, where they were talking about how one cant exist without the other. loved the concept and execution of this!
ok i got most of the endings but im reading the ending guide and the last 2 endings say when your clock is glitching what does that mean? and im playing trying to do the denial ending and it 8:00 but its not giving me the option to rewind do you think you can help? btw i love the art for this game :>
Gotta say this was pretty cool. I really like the concept of replaying over & over while slowly getting more options at hand. The only thing that kinda confused/annoy me was the fact that the driver = me & stranger = you (nvm the naming thing makes more sense the longer you play so I take this complaint back). Just seemed confusing when I was getting dialogue from both at the same time tbh. Other then that I loved it every step of the way.
Oh my GOD. This was fricking FANTASTIC. I saw that ManlyBadassHero made a video on this game and I had to play it for myself first and I'm so glad I did. The art, the atmosphere, and the themes in the dialogue too. Everything about this story was short, and sweet, and SO well executed. I'll have to make sure to follow your other projects. Keep up the amazing work!!!!
I did the same thing, I started watching the video but then I decided I wanted to give it a try first and I don't regret it at all, it's an amazing game!
i love this game so much! i had so much fun collecting all endings. i love this creepy vibe and how dying in this game was so calm and obvious. thank you for making this
i played this with my friend this evening and i'm absolutely obsessed with it. it is absolutely incredible, and blew me out of the water. seriously. it means so much to me and i'm just... i don't even have words. thank you for making this.
Is there a number higher than infinity? Because on a scale of one to five that's what this game is, the characters were stunning, the art and music is phenomenal and the story is amazing. I genuinely don't know how else to describe this game other than absolutely flawless. I played this game three times after getting all of the endings and I don't regret a millisecond of it.
I squeezed my chest in an attempt to cry in a different form of tears than the water that commonly falls out of my eyes.
I failed, I cried.
I felt twice the pain I believe I was supposed to and somehow it felt reassuring. This game strongly conveys all the characters' emotions, and I, for one, was not planning on missing a single display of them. In a story where the desired ending remains untouched by explicit mentions of death yet death depicted enough to be clearly understood, I wished for life. I hoped so strongly that the hiker would hold their head back up, I hoped so strongly that the hiker would have a good ending where they run away with no downside, but oh, what a lesson I have learnt at 1am on a Wednesday: no matter how hard you try, you can't always have a good ending.
Honestly I couldn't get enough of this game. Somehow I feel like I've been punched in the face repeatedly, but warmly embraced immediately following that.
This game was a way for people to not only hear the voices of these characters, but to listen to them scream and demand better. A better world, a better life, a better ending. And God was it powerful to hear them. There is nothing more that I wish then to know how the story of these two will end and while I know that wish may never come to pass you brought us on a journey that truly was once in a life time. Thank you so much for letting us into the darkness and giving us the privilege to watch them crawl into the light. Truly this was a tale that I never wanted to end and I know it will stick with me for years to come.
Though I am kind of hoping for a sequel I understand if this is the only end we will see. It was beautiful, powerful, and unmatched. Amazing work.
This game is totally amazing. I love the plot and dialogue, and the pacing was spot on. The subtle details and changes that helped keep your attention were really well done, it could have easily gotten stale at any point with this type of story but it never did. Looking forward to more of your work!
i doubt it was intentional but this game has such strong sugaru miaki novel vibes especially pain pain go away and that's a big favorite i ADORE this game thank you so much!!! the soundtrack compliments the atmosphere so well and i found the mixed point of view use just. masterfully done. i'm really looking forward to any other work you release
THIS GAME IS SO GOOD?!?! My friend told me about it, thought why not, decided to play, and now it's been an hour and I'm obsessed. The art style is really good, the endings I've gotten so far are so interesting, and the 3 characters are so well-fleshed out it's scary. Genuinely a super good visual novel!
thank you so much!! :D and a big thanks to your friend for thinking to recommend this game haha ;; that's super sweet of them to do! i'm so glad that you're enjoying it, and i hope you have fun with the rest of the endings!
if you mean the sounds themselves, they were created by Sam Tudor, who made all of the music and sfx for HIKEBACK!
if you're asking how i made them play while dialogue showed, i'd recommend going through the Ren'Py cookbook to try out some of the programming techniques there to help answer your question. i used this page as reference, although it's now out of date, so you'd have to adjust it to modern ren'py haha
Man, I didn't even NOTICE that the clock was changing on the main screen.
But this was a fascinating experience, influenced by previous works but not quite like anything I have ever played or watched. It played with perspective, with choice, with both the meta-knowledge of the player and the knowledge the characters have. No one knows what they think they know in the way they think they know it at any point, including you. And I don't mean "you."
Most of all, this game plays with the idea of "endings," perhaps with more creativity than I've ever seen before. It reminds me a little of "No-One Has to Die," but whereas that game touches on the idea, this game takes it and sails off into the stratosphere.
this is an incredibly sweet and well-thought-out comment ;; thank you so much for playing, as well as for taking the time to share your thoughts. i'm so glad that you enjoyed HIKEBACK !! ^^
Okay, I just have to say, this is amazing! It was interesting and I couldn't stop playing until I made sure that I unlocked all the ending. Although I do have a question. Spoiler alert, btw. Who exactly wasshe? Was the place like a research center or something? Did he get that power or was it caused my experimentation?
thank you so much for playing HIKEBACK!! i'm really happy that you enjoyed it, and even spent the time getting all the endings! :D
as for your questions, i wanted to leave some things up to interpretation, so i recommend drawing your own conclusions. ^^ it seems like you're on the right track, though!
What a fantastic game! Perfectly polished in aesthetic and sound design, brilliantly written with some deep philosophical themes, and a plot that unfolds in a way that I didn't expect (especially considering that looping scenarios are a part of the gameplay) but which fits regardless. I loved how you balanced the reveals about both characters involved so that in the end they really were both on equal footing in terms of how the player may view them.
A lot of times when visual novels rely on "Groundhog Day" plots like this it can get a little tedious with trial and error gameplay, but the little and big changes you get as the game goes on kept me thinking about each choice I made even when I was in essence just trying to get to the true ending. Even after getting the true ending, I'm wondering about the choices I made in the end... Similarly, while at first I was a little put off at not being able to skip dialogue I've already seen before or roll back in case I missed something, even this really serviced the plot of the game in obvious ways later (no spoilers but I loved that mechanic btw.)
It blows my mind that you guys were able to put this together in ten days. Really amazing job!
every single comment has meant so much to me, but i'll admit, i keep coming back to this one just because of how much thought and care you put into it. this is incredibly sweet of you to say, and i really appreciate that you not only took the time to play the game, but also to let me know what you thought of it!
thank you so, so much ;; this was really lovely to hear, especially from a fellow visual novel fan!
I cant even begin to describe how amazing this game was. Besides from the amazing writing, to the visuals, to even the atmospheric music that complemented both of these, all together this game brought me on an exciting adventure to try to find all of the endings.
This game... I haven't even beaten it. I only got... maybe five endings? It's trippy, it's violent, it messes with my head. I feel like I'm seeing a part of reality I'm not supposed to, yet it's completely sensical and based loosely around reality. I don't fully understand it, or what any of the endings mean, or how to even unlock other endings.
It also feels strange that we're just strangers every time, that things always reset. Wish there were a way to make friends with.. myself. That's odd to say. But I wonder if there is a non-violent/friendly ending? There must be a true ending. But how many iterations must I go through?
thank you so much for commenting! there are definitely the "true" endings you seek; if you're stuck, i recommend trying to see what happens when the clock on the main menu passes 12
As of this second I just got the "true ending." I just... wow. I won't spoil it but I really didn't see this coming. It's well worth playing through to get all the endings, even if you have to replay old ones to get them. The game seems to kind of loop on itself and repeat, and sometimes it will feel as though it's looping the exact same thing without change. Trust me, just keep going. Make a different choice here, play a couple more times there, and the truth will finally reveal itself. And when it does... you'll likely feel as stunned as I do now.
This is a brilliant game from an even more brilliant mind. All I can say is a massive thank you to the creator for this masterpiece I experienced. This... this isn't a game. It's a full psychological experience that F*ks with your head and leaves you breathless. I'm not sure how to rate it, sadly, but it would get 10 stars if I could. In short, thank you, CLOWN, for your amazing gameplay
oh my god. This is definitely one of my favorite games now.... i'm so so glad i stuck with it instead of giving up when i thought i was stuck. please keep creating, i think the world needs art like this
thank you so much for your kind words! you'll know when you've gotten a true ending once you've seen the credits. if you're feeling stuck, try to see what happens when the clock on the main menu passes 12 ^^ i can also post a guide to all the endings within the next few days!
this comment almost brought me to tears haha ;; thank you so much for taking the time to play it, and for leaving such a sweet message too! i'm really glad that you enjoyed it ^^

Interesting game. Haven't finished it but the story is very interesting, and a bit disturbing, which is good.

what a brilliant use of persistents, and what a wonderful aesthetic! this writing was so raw and interesting. absolutely loved it!

Out of curiosity, is there a specific reason why the character sprites are semi-transparent?
No I'm feeling that special hollowness that only this kind of sad story gives me... I'm not crying but I feel like I should be. I want the driver and the hiker to be okay... I ache

oh wait, i didnt see the 'thank you for playing' thing right there. duh. whoops! still love it
ok yeah i made the first comment when i was still like half through the game lmaoooo its neat to see how this all ties together
just finished it! i cried. a lot
ok i got most of the endings but im reading the ending guide and the last 2 endings say when your clock is glitching what does that mean? and im playing trying to do the denial ending and it 8:00 but its not giving me the option to rewind do you think you can help? btw i love the art for this game :>

This game seriously inspired me. I hope to make a VN game with a similar "roll back" concept, I hope I can do it!
Clown, your writing in this was phenomenal!
"but now we shall both surely die" said the driver
"lol" said the hitchhiker, "nope"
I'm really simping for the hiker though w o w
i love the ending where youre just straight up like "no im leaving you on the road" lol
i love allllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll the endings
Oh my GOD. This was fricking FANTASTIC. I saw that ManlyBadassHero made a video on this game and I had to play it for myself first and I'm so glad I did.
