Game description
A lonely art conservator works on a painting that is not quite what it seems on the surface.

Currently, there are three endings. You can hold down the Control button to speed through text you've already seen!

Theme interpretation
I love the theme of secrets! I've always been fascinated by paintings with things hidden beneath their top layer, and I thought this would be a fun subject to explore for the game jam.

I love this game. Working quietly on the desktop, with wonderful music playing next to me, I was imagining the story in the picture! I love the picture at the end that imitates latex gloves, such a clever use! Unexpected story twist!!!

thank you for your last three suggestions!(●'◡'●)I decided to change my job

Beautifully made game. Art is superb, narrative also. Loved the final text. Very good job

So well done, I loved the art and the attention to detail- recalling the player's choices and putting me in an introspective mood... I feel like painting a self portrait.

This was a super impactful and wonderfully written story, and I love how self-contained and complete it feel. Great job!
