This epiphany felt familiar! Detective Rivers (An Avatar of Yog-Sothoth), Nebulos Saffron, and Naomi should probably hang out and be offered some human sacrifices to eat by Nebulos' Cult go out to lunch!
I'm seeing a crossover in the future.

This is quite good! It gave me enough info to get an idea of what's happening while leaving me with many, many questions. What exactly is this tragedy that's keeping Naomi up? Who was that woman, and what's she talking about? Why is Naomi so gosh darn hungry?
It's tonally really well constructed. The rain in the background, the little moments of self reflection, some of the vague and ominous later dialogue... it all really comes together. That heart beat sound really sent me for a loop in particular; I didn't even realize that was just a sound in the game at first. The shift in how the optional interactions are written before and after the power goes out is also a nice touch.
This had my attention grasped very firmly, and for good reason! Nice work.
I really felt for Naomi during this game. It sounds like she's been through a lot and is feeling depressed and confused. You handled the story really well here. That woman scared the crap out of me though, haha.
The only thing is that I was able to walk onto the right counter in the kitchen (and all over the donuts ;-;). Also I wish I could've been able to play this in fullscreen (the title of this jam was so long it kept sticking into the viewport, lol).
Great work!
