I really liked this game! I'm having a hard time finding anything to critique here. I got stuck trying to figure out how to get some of the later endings, but watching a video from a YouTuber in the comments reminded me about a choice that existed and helped me find the rest. I even got the best ending - something the YouTuber didn't figure out!

Huge props, Quiz, this is one of my favorites for sure!

Thank you, KV, I'm glad you liked it! ; w ; I probably should have mentioned in the main text of the page that I have a walkthrough in the manual to help get to the best ending, but I'm glad you were still able to figure it out with youtuber assistance. :D

Actually, I did look through the walkthrough. I got tripped up by what was meant by "after the cutscene," which the video walkthrough made clearer.

That said, including a written walkthrough is a smart idea, one I will consider implementing in my future jam games.

I think my writing wasn't as clear as I needed it to be, since I was also trying to keep it largely spoiler free. That way, even if the player knows what to do, the results of those actions would still somewhat be a surprise.

Cool game, didn't really find it scary but was pretty fun

I 'Like' like this one XD, dying and then switching to the killer was unexpecting and fun!! 

'Like' .. make part 2 or a longer version :)

I'm glad you like, enjoyed it. :D

That may be in the future, since I really did enjoy working on this project and I had some ideas that I just wasn't able to implement due to time. Will be after I finish diving into JavaScript though, since I want to make a plugin or two for my own purposes.

Such a nicely done game! I love the portraits of the characters and the character switch in the middle really caught me off guard, well done! :D
