"Every happy family is alike; every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way." -- Tolstoy
Stitched: trauma is based on the same code, and premise, as Stitched, with one twist: childhood trauma distorts experiences and events; some are wildly chaotic; others obsessively retrace a few curves. It is an experiment in combinatorial complexity: are two mints ever indistinguishable?
The distortion has been carefully designed to allow a huge space of legibly distinct possibilities.
