The ending definitely took me by surprise, but the game, albeit short, was really well made and the art style looks really nice! I can see a lot of improvement compared to your fist games. Wish the story of the poor mermaid was longer or there was a way to save her! Still, great work Abra!

thank you 😊
I thought about different endings, but then it'd make the story less tragic and ambigous - i showed the world from a monster's point of view, and it's a tragedy. But from humans' point of view they just killed a monster... If there was a way to save Nerris, then it'd mean she's "good". But there are no good and bad guys there...
Also the game is so short because I wanted to be sure to finish it in time, unlike previous jam lol. And spent 1.5 days on it... which is the other extreme:>
