I played/read the Mac version of this game in about 25 minutes.
I enjoyed this! Amy’s voice was consistent and that drew me into the first-person narration. Something I thought was effective here was the tonal shift over the course of the piece. At first, with the bright/bloomed out pastel backgrounds and ambient sound, the atmosphere feels embracing and optimistic. Then, as the story/night progresses, it becomes increasingly cold and alienating as the “dream job” sours/gets corrupted, a vibe shift that I wasn’t really expecting but felt natural and inevitable by the time I got to the end. The throughline that brings it together is the friendship between Amy and Julie that is really recontextualized by the end of the piece—it felt like as a reader, I was questioning Julie’s intentions alongside Amy.
Take care,
