I don't think I ever played a game like this before! It definitely has a lot of space which really shifts the gameplay feeling in an interesting way. I like the mysterious atmosphere a lot, and I think that the writing is one of games biggest strengths, because it really sucked me in and caught my attention!

I got to two endings in total (one was the standard ending of fixing the pipe normally, another one was where I offered the shadow as a tribute to the statue) - and it feels like there is still much more that I could do, but the fact that I would have to redo everything is kind of disheartening. I could imagine that at each point where you make a decision or get/trade an item, you could make a checkpoint, and once you die, you can scroll back to your checkpoints and continue on from one of them. Just an idea though, to encourage players to get all endings / see all lore!

One incredibly tiny nitpick, and something that bothered me more than it should have - the fact that the diagonal walking does not exactly diagonally walk through a tile square on the ground really drove me crazy at some points! xD

Thank you for the kind words! We're glad that you've enjoyed the small experience we've prepared.

It's definitely a writing-and-walking heavy game, so we're happy to hear that you rate those aspects! Movement by mouse click is definitely something we wanted to do, and probably will if we decide to continue working on the game. So no it's not nitpicky at all!

State saving is an interesting point. It's definitely not in our original design and we have some thoughts as to why it should not be. However, it might be a good optional toggle to include if the player wants to experience the game that way. Definitely something to take into consideration.

Cheers!

Hey VoidGeht! Didn't see you on Discord, or else I would've messaged you there.
Like I already said, I really respect the way your game turned out, I really loved the atmosphere and the cold style of the storytelling.

If you need music for your game heading forward, consider me as a composer! Here's my portfolio https://soundcloud.com/dolphinflavoredicecream and here's my website https://michaeleatoncomposer.weebly.com/

Thanks!
