I went into the game totally blind, and was so surprised to find such a serious, compelling narrative. Reading the item descriptions was so bittersweet, even though I had no idea what any of these characters even look like. Everything was incredibly well done, from the writing to the music, definitely one of the best games I've played this jam!

Thank you so much for the kind words! I think a lot of what allows our player to project themselves into the player character's (Ash) life is the lack of visual detail. We relied on the player's imagination (and our talented writer) to do the heavy lifting in terms of visuals. I am glad this technique was so effective for you. Thanks for playing!
