13 itemsAbout the Game
Plunge forehead-first into the exhilarating world of Horatio, the Endless galaxy’s most perfect being. Experience life as a freshly-decanted Horatio clone on his first day of cadet school.
Will you be the obedient servant of the great forehead in the sky? Will you manage to woo one of four uniquely identical Horatio clones? Or will you skirt the line of disobedience and risk the wrath of the gene-splicer-in-chief?
FULL IMMERSION
An exclusive deep-dive into the culture of the most fabulous being in the Universe. Your body and genes have never looked this good.
Multiple narrative arcs & endings
Choices matter! Will you find your way to the battle-training simulations or end up bathing in a tropical waterfall? Survive or thrive, it is up to you…
Colorful, retro-futuristic hand-drawn art style
Life as Horatio can be stressful at times, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t enjoy it in a gorgeous, unique 2D art style. Only the finest stuff…
An almost canon story
The Endless Universe’s “true story” gets rebooted every time you start a new game. Love Thyself: A Horatio Story positions itself firmly on our in-universe sliding scale of canon as a “dude, probably.”
