Hey Everyone, thanks for an incredible launch week! Weve identified a bug regarding the Blinkasaurus Rex and Eyes of Steel achievements. Because of this, weve removed Blinkasaurus Rex. The good news is that those of you who achieved Eyes of Steel should now see that as successfully achieved on your profile and those that havent will be able to achieve it in the future. - The BYE Dev Team

Coda is a story-driven game that utilizes players' blinks as the central mode of interaction, with each blink evolving the story. You begin aboard the ship of a mythical Ferryman, tasked with shepherding souls to the afterlife. In order to do so, you must tell him the entire story of your life in a series of flashbacks. With each blink, time passes faster and faster, but the Ferryman questions the truth of your story. He forces you deeper into your painfully repressed past, revealing a tragic truth about who you were, and who you weren’t. Coda tells a relatable story about the impossible expectations we place on ourselves, and the irrational regrets we carry with us when we feel we aren’t measuring up.
