I really like the setting and art of the game, it's a top down shooter where if you're systematic you will never have to run from anything. I did kind of forget to check the loot from the killed rabbits, but once the ending hit it did make perfect sense, while still being a plot twist, good job!
The game itself felt quite tedious though, and I would've closed it at level three if this wasn't a story round (many other people will miss the ending though). It worked well and felt interesting the first three levels but after that it didn't really bring anything new(could also be cause I didn't check the dropped of stuff, so I missed a bit of story there). Especially the increased search area made it feel very slow. That being said, the slow nature of the game also fits into the narrative, with this being your "day to day job".
The game would've been perfect if there was 3 levels instead of five, so well done!

Yeah, I made up my mind about the 5 days way too early and just stopped thinking about it after that.
I originally had plans for gameplay changes for each day, but never got around to making them.
There are still small bits of text info you can find though. The stuff you collect from rabbits and the text that pops up when you check the paper bag changes each day, all hinting at the ending reveal.
The gameplay is definitely a bit dull. But I feel like shooting the rabbits shouldn't feel too exciting, given the story's purpose. I originally wanted to add an ending where you shoot too many rabbits for no reason. The game definitely needs more horror elements to make it more interesting. But I got really burned out and couldn't add anything else.
Thanks for the feedback, I really appreciate it!
Something cleaver I noticed once while playing is that due to the shotgun spraying, you can accidentally hit a rabbit even if you did shoot the correct one. I actually liked this interaction. I wonder if you could've made it so that at one point you're aiming at the right rabbit, but your aim twitches when you shoot, setting off a larger fight. (this could be the main character having subconscious second thoughts about killing all these (innocent?) people.)
