  • Strange, grotesque, but more focused on its journey than eliciting shock. Reminds me of the HyperCard games that used to proliferate on old Macs. Except this one has more blood and gore. Being thrown into the deep end into a world of body horror is a great frontier for interactive fiction. Visually striking and memorably so. Absolute highlight of the jam. Great work!

Excellent art style, and I love the cover art and page design, including the throwback to MS-DOS and Cartridges! I enjoyed playing through the story.

Super awesome lofi aesthetics that created a truly creepy atmosphere. Sometimes found it frustrating that you could go for several pages without really making a choice, and it was confusing when there were clickable items on screen (alert buttons, for instance) that didn't seem to do anything. Amazing game page decoration. Apparently there's a Bruce Willis ending? I'll have to go back and try again...

Nice. I found Bruce. :)

Thanks for pointing these errors, a friend also told me the Warning buttons were confusing XD I've let them to create a sense of emergency. Thanks again for your kind message !

Submitted

Of course! To be clear, I liked the warnings and they did create a sense of emergency. I was just confused at first as to whether I was supposed to click on them. I also noticed on second playthrough that I could delete and edit the text boxes. Is that a feature or a bug?

Developer(+1)

It's a feature from the game engine, but since I don't have control on it, it's a bug.

Submitted

what engine did you use, out of curiosity?

Extremely cool. I'm a huge fan of the style you've got going on. Apparently there's a Bruce Willis ending that I missed so I'm definitely going to have to play again

Got the Bruce Willis ending first time, instant classic video game, good job!

Submitted(+1)

Played every ending, some of them were really fun, some were really chilling, very nice entry. Loved the REALLY multiple choice interactions, the atmosphere and theme was absolute on spot. The visuals and sounds were great too, really loved that one. GGs!

So awesome! It took me a few tries but I got the legendary Bruce Willis ending eventually. Also, for the record, I love how you went above and beyond with the itch.io page decorations! Impressive managing to fit that into the jam. Loved it!

The ending I got blindsided me in a good way ~
I loved the visuals

I got the Bruce Willis ending, I refuse to see another ending, 10/10 experience.

This game made me deeply uncomfortable, and I think that was probably your goal. Well done!
