I definitely have to count this among my favourites out of what I've played so far :3 Brilliantly creepy with beautiful art and great voice acting. The soundtrack also fits really well to create a wonderfully ominous atmosphere!

Dale is awesome, but not as awesome as Pizza x3

I'm a big fan of voice acting so I'm always excited to hear it in indie VNs. I certainly wasn't expecting to hear such a northern British accent in a visual novel, haha. I'm from the UK myself, and it somehow just made everything feel more real for me having a protagonist that speaks similarly to how I do for a change (though I'm not northern myself, I'm from Bucks, but I've spent a lot of time living up north in Lancashire and Greater Manchester!)

Anyways, I love everything about it! I feel as though I need to replay it once it's actually dark because right now, I'm in a mad rush to try and play as many of the games from the jam as I can while I've got a chance, but I regret playing this one during the daytime now because night time is my preferred time for gaming and it would really help with immersion even more :D

PS. I wound up playing the browser version because my stupid antivirus was trying to block IDP Generic or something when I downloaded the windows one >.< I could've just ignored it but I'm the paranoid type, haha.

Great art, voice acting and a well crafted story. Genuinely unsettling. The stock standard looking UI let the experience down a little bit. But all in all, good stuff!

Developer

Thanks for your kind words! We ran out of time to get the UI done for jam submission, but a more unique UI will definitely come in an update.

Can definitely understand the difficulties that came with running out of time :D

Thanks very much, I’m glad you enjoyed it! I’m maybe half-way through Wolfskin’s Curse right now, and loving it so far!
