How does your game fit the theme?
My game is set in a prison, where the player is "isolated" from the outside world, except through his therapist. In addition, I wanted to explore reasons why people might choose to isolate themselves from others, and these reasons are explored in the game's dialogue.

GAMEPLAY
The concept was interesting. I wish there was maybe a little bit more to do or content, but I do not think it was intended to be more, and it did this fine. The transitions took some time, so playing quickly to achieve all endings was not easy to do fast.
ART STYLE / VISUALS
The graphics were satisfactory, adequately supporting the game's concept.
AUDIO / SOUND DESIGN
The sound was quite right for this kind of game(play).
INNOVATION
The game was not particularly innovative.
THEME
The theme was integrated in a fun and playful way.
Overall a fun and good little game jam entry. Well done đź’Ş!
Animation transitions took forever, and the character movement/interacting with stuff never made sense - sometimes soft locked, sometimes didn’t. The endings didn’t seem to have any connection with what was being talked about leading up to them. The messaging was good, I guess, but not particularly ground breaking or insightful, leaving it all kind of… meaningless feeling?
I did like the music loop, and the ideas you’re playing with, just didn’t quite do it for me.
