Solid choice of music!
Personally, I think you nailed the aspect of the caring "friend" -- but of course, that's probably a bit subjective.
Moving on from that, I really like how the game progressed! Although I did have to consult the comments and guide a bit in order to see how to work the painting, overall the game was very well-made and covered all the points I would hope it did.
On a second note, I kinda wish there was some sort of use to the mobile phone and the telephone, considering we were given our parents' number to call.
Great work overall!
