How does you game fit the theme?
The game fits the theme through it's narrative and setting. You play in a boys mind, trying to escape his self-forged cage of depression, anxiety, and fear. This cage is not real, and is instead a trap of his own mental creation.

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
No, the music, sfx, and transitions were taken from assets I bought off of the Unity Asset Store.

Really pleasing visuals with a nice soundtrack to accompany the visuals. Very good story. Keep it up mate.

I was not expecting to get struck by the text, but I was very wrong. What a very good game.

The game design needed, for me, to be simple, so people can keep it up with the message you are showing, and I think you did nicely. I only think the sound effect when you collect the items was a little bit distracting, but it's a minor detail.

I enjoying playing this interesting game with the nice art. But despite the fact, that this game has very good music, I am sad about sound effect which really blends with the music and don't even fit there. In addition to not fitting sfx I was confused about current gameplay. At the beginning, I had no idea, what stands for character, or what is my point. On the other hand, when I realized all this thinks, I found game  extremely funny.

This was a great experience. It is not often a game invokes emotions as real as this did. Especially at such a short time. 
I know it is supposed to be puzzle game, but i was so hooked by the story that i forgot to solve the levels in a thoughtout manner,  I was just trying to speed through to see what came next.
Really well done!

Woooow. May I have no words? I love that you couldn't lose the game, you just had to find a solution, any solution. And the atmosphere was on point.
