Great atmosphere and writing. The choices and interactivity were all well done. The music tracks were great, but at times felt a little short. The image effects and small uses of color were nice visual touches that suited the storytelling. Great entry overall, powerful and well-rounded stuff!

Very interesting way of telling such a moody story. Top marks for that.
A captivating story, very well written. Sometimes spooky, sometimes poetic, accentuated by the fitting music you created a marvelous atmosphere. Great work!
A great visual novel with a breathtaking story. The visual style sets a perfect mood for the game. Would have been nice to have more choices and things to examine. The name of the game is a fun reference to the game too. Well done!
A well-written story, which evokes a dream-like atmosphere, along with the music and artwork. Kept me hooked until the end.
The black and white painting style and music are very suitable for the narrative atmosphere of this game, and I enjoy the process of playing,great work:)
great game, I really enjoyed the atmosphere and the art style worked well with the music.
Its quite the spooky game! The music choice gave me chills and great use/composition with the screen space.
Wow, I really liked this game! The surreal, dreamlike, atmosphere was simultaneously unnerving and beautiful. The writing was great and the audio and illustrations added another dimension to the experience. Oh, and I love the unusual aspect ratio of the game!
Amazing story!! I really liked the atmosphere with the art and music. Good job!
Amazing, the atmosphere, the story, the art is promising! I love it!
The game has a sad but comforting atmosphere that I really enjoyed. I loved the art music and story!
