Ranked from 6 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

Use of the theme
I mixed in some Lovecraft and put a wholesome twist on cosmic horror. Lovecraftian stories, while on the edge, can be considered fairy tales.

AI generated content (If you used an AI)
ChatGPT wrote the physics, and it shows.

Assets used (If you used external or existing assets)
I used sounds and music from Pixabay and Arcane by Shapeforms

Additional notes
Calling the NSFW content in this game "limited" is generous. Mari will undress if she stands on the raft long enough. Everything else is left to the imagination.

Nice atmosphere and an intriguing story. Considering you used Godot, quite a lot was done in such a short time! Anyway would like a longer version. :)

I liked the dark atmosphere of the game and its lovecraftian elements. The raft scene is probably the most humoristic part, or at least, I found it funny. Spookier than horny, sure... but a pretty little jewel nonetheless. 

Nice job.

I didn't know pixel art could be atmospheric and darkly beautiful til now. Sure there's not much in the way of horniness but it's gorgeously presented and has a slow-burn sorta build up that's strangely dark and enticing.


I'm a sucker for rain, so the sound quality and general aesthetic was right on point and hit those nostalgia feels for me, pry weird to say but the rain was easily my most favorite thing, i just love rain when its done right in games, :D!


Over all great little atmospheric and beautiful experience, nicely done, :D

A lot of the shader effects looked really cool. The rain looked especially nice. But the movement, at least on browser, is just super slow. The environment was also pretty sparse. 

You could’ve added really odd, possibly even psychosexual props to the environment to reinforce the Lovecraftian narrative and dreamlike feel you’re going for, and to make the game, perhaps not horny, but more sexual. 

The animation on Mari getting up in the final area was nice and smooth. All the special effects in that area were great.

Thank you! I spent a lot of time on the effects.

The movement is horridly slow, yeah. I ought to patch that.

I'm not familiar with psychosexual props, what would that look like?

Thank you for your feedback!

Psychosexual imagery. It's essentially abstracted versions of genitals and mouths. Like how flowers are traditionally used as symbols for vaginas, and anything cylindrical is used as a phallic symbol.
