Really digging the storyline of this game, and was quite a refreshing take on the 'working at a convenience store at night' trope. Yes, there is rubbish to take out. Yes, there is raspberry jam (possibly, maybe blood) to clean up from the floor, but the eponymous envelope in question takes this in a whole new direction. Genuinely intrigued for parts 2 and 3...

Pros:

  • Great aesthetic - enjoyed the dialogue between customers and 'mumblin' Joe (that's my nickname for him, at any rate)
  • Refreshing take on a trope/genre within Indie Horror gaming that's staler than the hot dogs on display
  • Subverted expectations 

Cons:

  • Not many horror elements within the gameplay. Suggests potential for cult-like activity, but maybe we'll see more of this in the next game...
  • You gotta take out trash. And clean floors. Would have liked to have seen a different take on these actions.
  • Pretty short experience 

The critiques are a little nit-picky, as I overall enjoyed the main aspects of this game. Can't wait for Part 2!

Hey, thank for you playing the game! I really liked your video, you're very entertaining to listen to. I appreciate the feedback as it will help me improve the game.

You are right that this game will have a different take on the horror genre compared to other similar games. Part 2 will not be as linear as the one you played, and could be concidered open world (although not the biggest world).

Will be great seeing you play through the full game in the future :)

I always try to give constructive criticism for that reason - so I hope it helps. I'm really intrigued by the concept of the next parts, especially if it has a broader scope in terms of the world building! Definitely will be looking into part two when it's released! Just make sure there's more hot-dogs involved!
