How did you choose to implement the Theme: Fragmented Memories in your game?
Although it's not directly about a character with memories all over the place, the game mainly focuses on exploring different parts of the world, and finding different items. The story isn't explained outright, but the player can put two and two together as they proceed, out of order, as if fragmented. There is a theme of fragmented memories because of its flashback black and white aesthetic, as well as references to things that happened to Iva, the main character. She is in this state of limbo, remembering.

Only played it once, haven't gotten to the end because it's confusing for me and things aren't made clear enough. Despite that, very interesting and I'm willing to see more from the developer.

Pretty neat game! I do wish there was some kind of message for using items in the forest area after you trigger the cutscene, but other than that I had no problems.

Really neat game, I like the black and white aesthetic, it ties in well with the jam's theme because it feels like your playing out a memory or a dream. Also thought the music fitted the spooky atmosphere very well :)

Wow, this game was awesome! I really like the art style and the way you were able to tell the story through visuals. My only complaint is that the sound effect that plays when I close a menu sounds like it's ripping through my eardrums, but even that is only a minor thing when compared to the sheer amount of awesomeness on display! Thank you for making this!

Pretty good so far, was this game inspired by Yume Nikki by any chance? It gives me that vibe so far :D
