Yeah umm, when first looking at this, knew it wasn't going to be something I'd like since horror is not my genre. Being slightly hemophobic, felt anxious ever since the content warning, the atmosphere felt very eerie and it slowly built up making me feel more and more uncomfortable to the point where I was scared to even talk to people or interact with things. Then the first dream came, and I thought about quitting, but my curiosity was piqued.

When I gave the first flower and solved the first problem, it felt really rewarding and made me keep going, then meeting new characters and talking to them became what I look forward to daily, I liked many of the characters, very unique, memorable, the dialogues are simple yet brilliant. Though, I was a bit disappointed when I thought I could share one last word with them saying goodbyes or something before resting since not resting yet was an option.

Before I knew it, I wasn't scared or anxious anymore, even during the dreams. It's a real wonder from being scared to I don't know, like heartwarming, it's like my feelings progressed alongside the game and the character. From just a cover to this, Well done.

Some minor personal preferences: an option to turn off the blur effects and saturation when you're low, motion sickness, interacting with the plants from the top side, and do plants sometimes die randomly, was kinda confused. Switching to bat form or something to move faster. Mouse controls, smart pathfinding, clicking the things to interact, or having right click doing what the E key does.
