  • While I couldn't get through the entire story in the judging time, I do like how the game explains and implements shadows and alchemy into one. The art is great - I especially love the colouring work done. I'd love to explore more how the alchemy mechanics explained could add more challenge to the game and impact choices and story - though I understand this would be a big ask within the time frame of the jam. I enjoyed this - well done!

Thank you for the game! It has great style. Would read more of it. It has lot of potential and the story feels like a glimpse into a well-thought-out world.
