Thank you so much for taking the time check out the game and leave such epic detailed feedback! I feel like what I said in my comment was nowhere near enough now >.< haha.
You also really cheered me up because I happened to see this while I was in a gigantic queue for a theme park ride, and it just really lifted my mood :3
I think the bad ends are probably more exciting than the good ends for the most part anyways, haha. The good ends wound up being somewhat rushed in comparison x3 Plus I do tend to struggle with writing happier endings because I personally prefer the bad ones as a player!
I imagine LPB will be very pleased to read your comments on the colour palette and style because that's exactly what she was going for when she described to me how she wanted things to look/feel! It will never fail to amaze me how I can give her a very basic, probably not particularly helpful description of a character, and then she just works her magic and it comes out awesome! I had nothing to do with the colour palette whatsoever because I knew that she'd come up with something stunning :3
Hehe, Niard would be so pleased to hear you say that x3 And I'm really glad the writing didn't suck since aside from putting everything together and sorta directing assets, that was my main job! Throughout the entire jam, I just felt like I didn't deserve to have such a wonderful team, and that if anything was gonna let the project down, it'd be my writing >.<
And I'm super glad to hear you thought that about the music because I both love and despise creating soundtracks at the same time xD I get so much joy from doing it, but I also feel like it consumes me to the point of insanity, haha. I'm still frustrated that I had to use 3 tracks from asset packs because no matter what I did, I couldn't get the sort of sound I wanted for Niard and Nyari's themes especially!

Ahh, man, sorry they ended up making you feel like that >.< Was the sound files that you download from Maddie's page that you're talking about? Or the ones that are within the game on the PC inside her folder? Either way, do you think I should edit my warnings somehow to better alert players? I don't want to wind up making anyone feel crappy >.< I just went with 'disturbing sounds' hoping it would cover everything, but I wasn't really sure if it'd do the job!
The Maddie stuff essentially just leads to another ending which is considered a bad ending anyways, so you're not missing out on too much :3
