And because Stacey is so big on mixtapes and she places all this import on picking the perfect song for the perfect moment.
Everything in the game then is accompanied by some song.
Like it starts out with Devo and then there's some silver chair.
There's like a Smashing Pumpkins sequence.
And then there's some kind of more obscure stuff.
Like there's John Paul Young, this Australian rock singer who I wasn't even familiar with.
And one of the best sequences in the game is this John Paul Young song, Yesterday's Hero.
That's like an amazing song and I'd never even heard it.
So it's a collection of sequences, you know, there's mini games and there's cut scenes and there's like gone home sequences where you walk around someone's room and look at stuff.
And it's all kind of a mix of memory and current events, but it's kind of magical, like impossible things will happen.
They'll fly into space.
It's kind of hallucinogenic at times.
It's like a trip down memory lane, a whole bunch of short sequences, each one accompanied by a new piece of music.
So it's kind of an interesting mix of music that is in no way reflective of like an actual teen girl in the 90s.
Like it's not even close.
It is very much the music liked by these guys who made this game who are probably around my age and grew up in Australia.
Like there's a lot of Australian bands.
It's a lot of just like classic rock.
There's no Britney Spears, no Backstreet Boys.
No, there's no Miseducation of Lauryn Hill, which I was like, well, the fact that that's not in here alone.
