Else Heart.Break()



else Heart.Break is an open-world Adventure Game, where the key to solving the puzzles is good old-fashioned computer programming.

It's Sebastian's birthday, and you get a phone call about a job -- selling soda pop at the island city of Dorisburg. But as soon as Seb gets there, things seem a little strange. There are computers everywhere, he can't even find his new boss, and the creepy hotel room doesn't even connect to the right door. He's just a young man, alone and lost in a strange city.

Then he sees a beautiful girl dancing at Bar Yvonne, and everything starts to turn around. It's pretty hard to impress a girl like Pixie as a novice soda salesman. But one thing leads to another, leading to Sebastian taking on a evil corporation with a hacker collective.

Playable in English and Swedish.


 * Disc One Nuke: The modder. You get it fairly early in the game, but it's very powerful -- enough to win the game in less than 15 minutes.  Most of the game is exploring how to use it and learning to program in Språk (because why not have another DSL?).
 * Fiery Redhead: Pixie, of course, who will get angry at you if you pick the dialog that makes you an insensitive clod.
 * Larval Stage: Sebastian goes through this as you, his controller, finally figure out how to hack into everything. Cue passing out on the desk after a hack session turns into sleepless nights.
 * Love Triangle: Sebastian starts falling for Pixie hard, but Ivan is already her boyfriend.
 * Magical Computer: As you explore the modder, you realize that almost any object in Dorisburg can be changed to do something entirely different. That feeling when you realize that some NPC had already hacked all of the trash cans in the game.
 * The Men in Black: The Typers never talk to you, but they do chase you down if you stepped over the line.
 * The Computer Is a Cheating Bastard: Eventually, you hack your way past everything.
 * Put on a Bus: Sorry, 100% spoiler here.
 * Rapid-Fire Typing: Averted unless you, the player, are good at extreme typing. This game involves real programming, which is typically much more deliberative.
 * Stalker with a Crush: Sebastian tracks Pixie to her place of work despite the fact that she's been very evasive about it, and she really calls you out on the stalking. This is all your fault, player.
 * Tron Lines: The Internet appears to be made of lines and colors.
