As many people, Adam too is unhappy with his life. He feels unfulfilled, lonely and depressed, which turned him into a toxic complainer. His constant grievances are not only frequent, but also rather severe, using strong language and insults. While for him the glass is half empty instead of half full, he finds himself in an unexpected adventure that, with the help of his two inspirational friends, has the potential to wash away his negativity and bring some light into his life.

What's the point of this game? Also I hate Adam! (Spoiler Alert)

Aside from fun and entertainment, disliking Adam is exactly the point! The game aims to show that extreme and insulting opinions and constant complaining make one unlikeable. Such an attitude will not only bother others, but also oneself, since constant negativity inside oneself will worsen ones life. Even the fairest and most relatable opinions become toxic if expressed too harshly, such as disliking arrogance. Instead of feeling hate towards it all the time, it's better to just care less and ignore it.

This game is not about the contents of opinions, but about the way of expressing them. It's not about "what" to think, but about "how" to think in order to have more happiness inside both oneself and also others.

Even though probably not many people will play this unknown game, this is my little contribution to trying to make people less angry and less toxic on the internet by showing them how not to behave (like Adam) and what I personally think would be better behavior (Nya and Jaxter).
