How It Begins
First, there's a title screen that calls this game Acid Whiplash by Anonymous.
But that is rejected, followed by a quote from Rybread Celsius's game Symetry.
Then you learn various "facts" about Rybread—for example, he has two shadows with a great dance team—before the game offers the second title of the game: Rybread Celsius Can't Find a Dictionary.
You might be anyone, carrying nothing, in a womb with a view. A nearby yellowed scroll has a message directly from co-author Cody Sandifer to the player, introducing you to the artist, wordsmith, and humorist known as Rybread Celsius, and entreats you to enjoy this "living memorial to his wit, style, and unintentional genius."
