You’re basically reliving a dying man’s moments from his life. I ended up with more questions at the end then when I started but I still enjoyed the story. The visuals were very well done and a style I don’t see used in Ren’Py much so it was nice to see something more unique than I’m used to. There were a good amount of choices to be had throughout.

    I played Throw Me in the River on Linux using Valve’s Proton. It never crashed on em and I didn’t notice any spelling errors. Alt-Tab didn’t work. I could manually save whenever I wanted and there were fifty four save slots for that.

    Game Engine: Ren’Py 7.3.5.606
    Game Version Played: 1.2.1
    Disk Space Used: 1.17 GB

    CPU Usage: 6-14 %
    RAM Usage: 2.8-3.2 GB

    I finished the game in thirty three minutes so the game isn’t a super long one at all but it didn’t feel rushed and made use of it’s short time with a good story. I paid $2.74 CAD for it and felt that was very fair value.

    My Score: 7/10
