Good game with an interesting premise. Chapter 3 was a little too hard for me, and those wanderers frustrated me. The mechanics are quite original though, and I have had a good time with the game :) The visuals are pretty too.

I thought it was pretty good. The mechanic of indirectly controlling the main character was solid. Sometimes the level design got a little awkward to the point where I was an angel luring a human who was luring a demon, but I had no idea where the sigil on the ground was, so we just had a divine conga line all across the level. The temptation demons were a well designed enemy, but I felt they were severely underused (also, I thought it was funny that they were like [DISTURBING NOISES] and the human thought "Huh, that sounds exactly like that angel. I better follow it." lol I think it would have been much more disturbing if they looked horrific, but sounded very angelic). There are some weird implications the game made to me. Like, the human does everything right *during the gameplay* and the only way he gets damned to hell is by no fault of his own, just by negligence or maliciousness on the part of the angel who's job is to help him. There are a few other things I didn't like that were personal and have no bearing on the game itself and how to improve it, so I won't get into that. Overall, I liked the gameplay. Good job.

Thank you so much for your valuable feedback! The conga line part took me out fr, but thank you! We will continue to improve the writing and designing of The Grey and any future games :] I must say I am curious about what personal dislikes you have regarding the game, but if you are uncomfortable with sharing them its perfectly fine!

Such a cool mechanic! I had a lot of fun guiding my little lamb. The character design (latern arm) was also really unique and neat! Really well done!

Great storyline. Properly balanced and good player movement mechanics as well.
