Ahhhhh Marie, you're the absolute best, thank you so much for taking your time to play and write this lovely review!!!
I'm so glad you enjoyed it, and that you think the artists did a great job, because, hey, they did!!! I agree with you so much, the voice acting was just amazing, and I'd like to thank the VAs about it once again lol
Replying to spoilers below:
Hahahaha, the monochrome was born out of two things, one, i was really into that at the time, and two, since we began late during freakaversity, it felt like the perfect way to complete the game in time. (There's even a mention to the colour green somewhere in freak, but hey, that's it's name, not a colour. Nope, no idea what a colour is! lol) But taking that into consideration plotwise sort of became must do thing in this one! I'm really glad you liked it and noticed it as something to highlight!
About Phoebe, I just feel like she was shocked like the rest, and was refusing change, in her own, very peculiar, particular style lol but worry not! She probably did fine after a few days, with the help of her buddy Casey!
Again, thank you for playing <3
