Absolutely fantastic. Reminds me of The Beginners Guide. Deep personal game with a lot of fun and meta-references. Enjoyed every minute of it. Having multiple games within a game was amazing, This one really felt like it could be fleshed out into a full game it really spoke to me. Full playthrough took me about an hour. The only complaint I could think of is the sound was slightly underused. A couple of the puzzles were a little abstract to me so I needed to guide a small amount but overall the puzzle difficulty felt fair and well thought out. I genuinely loved this a lot. The little details like the fake Unity Splash or how the cultist animation didn't rotate brought a real smile to me. You guys knocked it out of the park this is an insane amount of polish and story for a one month game! (Also is there a second ending? The game kept hinting at it but I could not figure out if there was one)

Thank you a lot for your kind words! The Beginners Guide was a big inspiration with quotes like "A key in one game opens a door in a completely different game". Also it's kind of what the trailer promised it to be, but we enjoyed that narrative a lot aswell! While Stead made the art and dialogue and I made everything work, aswell as UI and audio, latter sadly didn't receive the amount of time that we needed in order to polish the other parts. :( We're still pretty proud, as this is our first project being this polished and not have bugs (atleast we dont know of any in the demo).
The game itself does not have a second ending as of now, but it would make sense to include at least some kind of secret. (You could theoretically open the C: Files, but the password is not seen anywhere in the game, that could count :D)
