Played this back in 2022 for Spooktober, and didn't rate it then due to my position as a judge.
Really enjoyed this entry! The tension and foreshadowing the game builds throughout is nicely done. I particularly liked the chase sequence, felt like that gameplay mechanic helped enhance the narrative and put the player in Lacrima's shoes. Though, I do appreciate the option to turn it off for those who don't like QTEs or find them to be inaccessible.
Story and art are good! My favorite moment is definitely when Lacrima transformed, the tone change and how scary it was to see this one adorable girl licking the blood of another vampire and talking about delicious it was emphasized how she lost herself in that moment and all you could see was a monster. A monster who the fearful town people pictured.
Looking forward to a continuation. :)
