I’m Not A Bad Person Really; I Just Have Low Self-Esteem

I'm Not A Bad Person Really; I Just Have Low Self-Esteem has perhaps one of the most apologetic titles in videogame history, which is already a fairly good indication of its personality. This quirky indie game combines humor, unconventional situations and a deliberately awkward protagonist in an experience that feels much more interested in being memorable than polished. Its strange premise and eccentric presentation make it feel like the digital equivalent of finding a bizarre little comic someone drew at three in the morning and discovering that it is actually quite good. There is an appealing homemade quality throughout, with the game leaning into its oddness rather than hiding it. It is obscure, funny and unmistakably the product of an independent creative mind.

“I’m Not A Bad Person Really; I Just Have Low Self-Esteem was created during TIGJam UK2. It is based on a few different versions of Red Riding Hood, but with a bunch of bad language and general horribleness thrown into the mix. (Unfortunately, the game is a little hacky as it was made in less than a day. But I still like it a little bit.” - Bento Smile
