What an interesting game. This story is very well written and very well implemented. So, I suppose you became one of the people above the room at the end, then? I thought the room might have been the womb, but now I have no idea. . .
Also, I like your title. Though not much "coming of age" happens, the title encompasses the game perfectly.
(by the way, I'm also part of this jam! My game is HCF. Check it out?)
