Great poems. Execution is well done. Looking forward to the final game.

Beautiful choice of source material. Kudos on speedwriting a parser game with so much nonstandard stuff going on under the hood.

Thanks! The source material is indeed great... I wish I'd done better by it. The post Comp version will be better!

Cool concept. The execution is artfully unsettling and makes good use of the medium. Overall, it reminds me favorably of What Fuwa Bansaku Found.

Thank you! It was my first try at speed IF, and it was a wild ride! I appreciate your taking the time to comment.

Pretty good! I like how you used the Emily Dickinson poems to create an eerie atmosphere.

Thanks! It was supposed to be four poems and four acts,  with a real ending, but of course I ran out of time.

Well, I'm looking forward to the post-comp release!
