This was very fun and a blast from the past for a former video store employee, LOL!!!!

I really liked the characters both reguarding art and characterization and I loved how you presented Dean's insecurity (that is also very relatable).

It was a kice experience but I kinda felt like it left me hanging (like it's just the beginning of something).

Anyway really nice work, it has a good athmosphere: if you could add some nice music it will benefit a lot.

If there was I'm sorry: probably my pc have some issue with the software running the game because I can't hear the audio.

Fun dialogues (and monologues), I enjoyed it alot! It ended a bit abruptly, but it got the message across :)
