I think animating text would have made this a bit easier to get through.
There were a few small spots with minor grammar issues, but overall this was interesting! Keep up the great work!

I can’t say that I am a fan of text games, but after that I really want to play this more. It's like a little demo for me. I'd like more history and continuation in the same way. I like it. thank:)

It would be cool to add an animation of typing the text

Developer

Glad  you enjoyed! It feels amazing hearing that you want to see a little more <3

There may be some good news for you in the not too distant future. Thanks for the feedback!

Hey

It's just fair that I rate your game too after you rated mine, but your game was really confusing to me. I don't like text based games and I have no idea why the thing started over again. Maybe I missed something.

Therefore, I will not rate your game, because I don't know how. I hope this is ok for you.

Developer(+1)

Oh yeah, I was just playing your game. No worries, text based games can be a bit of a niche.

Just yesterday a streamer was playing my game and just closed the window out of nothing. It was quite funny his reaction ;D

Thing is I don't want to spoil much, but it isn't actually 'restarting'. I'm just glad you tried!

Yeah and I'm not in that niche :D

We also had a streamer who was playing our game. He was so bad and did not understand how to play it, but he gave a good rating nonetheless.

It is impossible to create a game for everybody.

Developer

Yep, that's mostly the reason why I'm not using the rating topics. Wise words!

Very compelling, though I do find it surprising that such an amazing visual artist chose to make a text-based game. Speaking of your art, if you might be interested in collaborating on a project I have in mind, please email me at my gmail address, mathesonkendra.

Developer

Really glad you enjoyed it! I'm using this as a kind of prototype for the bigger project I'm currently working. I decided taking out the visuals so that the written story would take all the spotlight.

Sure thing, I'm actually looking for collabs, already emailed you.

Dang the feels were real with this one! Very good writing! Have you done any writing for other games or released any others yourself? I'd love to check them out!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! Nothing out in the open yet, I do pretend to release one by the end of the year. Stay tuned!

I realy liked the emotion this game gives. You are a great writer : )

Developer

Thank you for the kind words! It really makes me happy ;D

The emotion is certainly there, I wouldn't have kept going through if I wasn't intrigued. 

Where would you like to take this in the future? 

Developer(+1)

I'm using this as a prototype/reaction test for a project I'm currently working. Glad you liked it!

Thanks for the feedback!

Nice entry, the emotion was there, not sure wich choice was right but i guess thats the point and it's a neat take on the "Only one" theme good job man :)

Developer

Glad you liked! Yep, it's all about what you think is right.

Thanks for the feedback!

Submitted

The story about the only one right choice.

(I'm sorry, I'm not a native English speaker and maybe misunderstood something).

Developer

Thing is, it's mostly up to you whether you feel it's the right choice.

Thanks for the feedback!

I never thought that a text based game would catch my attention like this, such an intense feeling that you were able to pass through the few lines of text.

Developer(+1)

Really appreciate it!

I'm working this as a prototype for a future project, glad to hear it's working emotion-wise.
