Lovely graphics. I included it in my Powerpoint Game Jam June, if you’d like to take a look. :)

The aesthetics and the story/writing of the game was excellent! I didn't mind the lack of gameplay (it did require some choices though the consequences were minimal) since the experience was beautiful. It's a good interactive trailer for a novel but if you ever felt like doing more chapters like this, I'd definitely look forward to playing them.

P.S. Try enabling Kiosk mode to hide the SlideShow buttons below. You'll have to add your own triggers to advance the slide though.

Very cool aesthetic. Great artwork, music, sound effects etc. Getting Blade Runner vibes. The story seems like it could be very interesting, but there's not a lot here just yet. There's also no real gameplay. It's just a series of cutscenes stitched together. Definitely a lot of potential. I would happily watch this in the cinema if you ever manage to get a movie deal from your novel.

Excellent world-building! I look forward to more.

The pixel-art elements  and the dynamic change of perspective really makes this game feel like it's telling the story within your eyes. However, I do believe that the game can glitch sometimes and I think that your fonts are not embedded, but overall, Chapter 1 was great! Good Job!

Thank you for the heads up about the fonts! I think they should be fixed now. Glad you enjoyed the game :)
