1 hour, 18 minutes, and 17 seconds. That was the time I had on my final save file when beating the game with the best ending. A game made in a week took me that about of time to beat. And I loved every single second of it.
I want to rant and rave and scream about this game to the high heavens, but to avoid spoilers, I won't. But I will say one thing when the moment with the diary happened, I knew I had to stop playing and get my girlfriend to come to help me, as to get a better idea of what you were trying to convey with the story. I have no clue if this was your intention or not, but the experiences of the main character from then on to the ending made my girlfriend feel better about her own personal experiences. Forgetting the categories for a second, you made the person I love so dearly feel better about her past, even just a little and for that, I can't even begin to show how thankful I am.
The story was beautifully written, with the dialogue and small details being the best parts. There were areas where the detection on checking places where items are was off. There was a room where the music just switched off randomly. I left that room immediately because of the utter terror I felt from the music just stopping all of a sudden. Turns out, music was just not set for that room. But on that last point, at no point in the game did I not feel a sense of dread while playing. The creepy and eery atmosphere was constant throughout, and it just made the entire experience better because of it. Using self-reflection as your main mechanic was a genius move, that idea was always present throughout the entire game, from start to end.
This game was by far one of the best games I played in a long time, even outside of this game jam, and I will be waiting patiently to see what other ideas you have in store for the future. Never stop doing what you are doing, because what you can do is amazing.
