Ohmygosh this was a really cute and sweet game. For one, it made me reminisce about the time I did an overnight shift at my old retail job. My supervisor and I were the only ones working that night and we heard shuffling in the dark corners of the store. We couldn't figure out if it was an animal or something else, but I was delighted because I can't help to be curious, while my supervisor was absolutely terrified lol.


I really loved this. I got the Friends Till the End Ending and that made me really happy. The sprite expressions for Jack were so cute, my favorite is the one of him smiling, with the :| face being a very close runner-up. I giggled at the interactions I had for changing up his look. I'm so happy it was me that took him home in the end because I know for sure I'd buy Jack out with my employee discount haha.


Great work, and Happy Spooktober!

This was a delightful little game. The one music track doesn't feel repetitive and it fits the vibe perfectly. I especially loved the club ending.  Some of the choices don't really matter, but it was easy to find out what you gotta choose to get the ending you want, and I'm glad Jack ends up in a good place, most of the time.
