This was phenomenal!! I really loved the unique art style, it really gave it that ethereal otherworldly vibe that a story like this needed!! The soundtracks used were also amazing and set the mood and tone delightfully! :3

I really love the style, the selected soundtracks invokes such unsettling feelings while I read through the narration. Also, I really did not expected the ending haha. Love the idea of how the child is birthed, it’s like how the other mythology (izanami, izanagi, zeus, etc) depicts birthing another deity. (I kinda expected it to be how the cover art depicts but god damn the actual thing is cool af)

This was awesome! I think this is one of the creepier entries I've played, actually, the writing is so good and the music fits perfectly... very cool! Would you describe this as cosmic horror? That's the vibe I was getting here although those stories are often more cthulu-y than biblical. I really admire Yaldabaoth's work ethic. Man when he takes the scene it's like "I want this done" "I want that done" "Let there be light" Bam done. Dude does not procrastinate XD

This was definitely an experience. The story is definitely outstanding, and really supported by the psychedelic visuals. All that along with the help of the music and ambiance makes the experience enjoyable and creepy. Really cool job with everything!!

Love the art and the music, The cover image is so striking. Is it a reference to Saturn Devouring His Son?

Great music, art is also very good. The story itself is great and convoluted which I wouldn’t mind if it had game play or decision making, even if they led to the same conclusion. Tunes sometimes would end up being too short for passage even in auto play. I haven’t looked into how large team is. But over all, it was a cool story.
