I’m glad it reminded you of something a little happier. Hopefully the next panel is happily playing with the ball and not just going back to the first panel.

It’s definitely a familiar feeling. I find that it often helps to play with friends. Goofing around in multiplayer is so much fun when singleplayer starts to grow stale, and playing games irl can be even better. I just wish I had friends :'3

Sorry to hear. It has a certain resonance with me. I’ve still yet to find a thing where the enjoyment doesn’t just disappear after some time.
