Wow, such a great result. Starting up you have the beautiful piano which then it transforms into the starting set piece of the game, its very well done and shows a lot of passion. The main menu overall is very well designed, different instruments and having the options/settings feel like part of them is really nice. The story itself is really well made and a bit tough at times but it carries the plot well. Not a type of game im used to with the depiction of abuse but you did it justice. I wont go into details about it to avoid spoilers, overall great work. The voice acting was amazing and lent itself well. The art was not only done well, im impressed you have so many changes for the MC, then also its really well animated, the movements are great, the little particles around some people. Clearly you guys really cared about what you made and got an amazing end result, its very well polished. Also i love the lil plushie!

Ahhh where do I start. Well, the piano title screen was beautiful and I love the way it was designed. The voice acting was perfect for a jam game, and I'm impressed that y'all got that much done in such a short time! I absolutely loved the sprites and Mercia poor Mercia :( she's so precious.

The first CG of the baby caught me off guard I was like holy f*ck - then remembered that it is indeed Spooktober. Uriel made me so sad. She tried everything to make her parents happy. It's always the parents like hers that end up with the sweetest kids that just want to do everything they can to please their family. Great work on this game, it was so sad/sweet.
