HI!! First I wanna say that I've played through it ENTIRELY (all choices). And I loved it :3 However I've made a review and some feedback for you (the dev) after the review but BE AWARE!! The feedback is the cold hard truth >:3 (I'm fair I promise)

------------------------------------------------

The Review: (NO SPOILERS)

THE STORY IS ADORABLE but semi-short TwT (I want more >:3)

THE ART IS ADORABLE but childish (I love it anyway :3)

LOVEABLE CHARACTERS!!! (even the side characters!!!)

CUTE WRITING!!!

THE MUSIC IS LOVELY!!!

SOUND EFFECTS ARE CREATIVE but annoying for me TwT (However you can turn them off in preferences)

Note: To what I'm aware, the voice volume does nothing TwT

Game Length: circa 30 min

(!!!SPOILERS AHEAD GO PLAY IT NOW IF YOU HAVEN'T!!!)

------------------------------------------------

THE FEEDBACK: (Brrrr *cold*)

1. I can tell hard work went into this, but.. IT NEEDS MORE DECISIONS. Reason why is because it was hard to.. like.. empathise with Salem. Salem is said as "You" but the problem with it was I didn't FEEL like I had anything to do with Salem. At least, that was at the start. Near the end of the story it finally felt like I was connected to Salem. OOO IDEA!!. What if the player could choose whether to play as Riley or Salem? Sounds fun to meee!!! :3 And makes it feel more PERSONAL which is the key to stories. (gosh I'm yapping, but this is only the beginning >:3)

2. THE ART is adorable, but I felt a lot of times it needed something more. (I know this is just a small project, but it needs to be said ^^) The fact that the art is childish only adds to the cute factor so I wouldn't say that's a problem. It adds character ^w^ 

3. THE MUSIC needs work (obviously but that doesn't mean I hate it :3). The action music starts QUITE early when there's barely any action other than hiding behind a rock.. The music also repeats a bit taking me a bit out of the immersion. Other than that SO LOVELY!!!

4. I mentioned a bit before about the connection with the player being Salem but another issue was at the beginning it was hard to even understand that I was Salem. Might be me being the problem but hey might be worth saying ^w^ 

4.1 This one isn't exactly important because of the ability to turn it off, but it really is worth mentioning still. The SOUND EFFECTS were slightly annoying... At least annoying enough to make me turn them off (but as mentioned above CREATIVE!!!).

4.2 Couldn't read the credits TwT

4.3 The inventory, and both clocks are slightly unnecessary TwT It'd be more relevant if it was more "your choices matter for survival" I guess, which would also be cool to see!!! ^w^ 

4.4 Would've loved a Gallery that you unlock after beating the game. (Once or twice I wanted to take a screenshot but the clocks and character are in the way TwT)

Small BUGS

The text is very low down on the screen which can get annoying since it interlaps with the small buttons at the bottom.

The return button in the preferences menu is slightly invisible. Moving it up a bit would fix it :3

CONCLUSION!!!

This game was lovely although small :3 I'd absolutely love to see more from you! This is the first review and feedback I've given before so I really hoped you enjoyed reading!!! (Sorry to drop so much text here TwT Might've taken this a bit too seriously :3)

this is a SPOT ON REVIEW I totally agree everything you said, we are hoping to update the game in the future literaly the flipping gallery mode was something I wanted to work on in the future i also kinda wanna have a thing where you beat the game and you get to read like journal entries from each of the characters. (Funny story about the inventory it was supposed to be working where you see what stuff you had and you got less and less food as the days go by but my friend gave up on coding it and I SUCK at coding so I didn’t know how to finish it so I was like oh well its kinda funny if I just tell you to firgure it out yourself(( this was me coping))


Thank you so much for this review it was so fun reading it I WILL MAKE EVEN BETTER GAMES IN THE FUTURE JUST FOR YOU TINYTHINKER
