Disturbing and hypnotic in equal parts, an experience that you don't know whether it unsettles or discomforts you. I loved the script, the music, the voice acting, the designs... practically everything. I must say, to provide some feedback, that I didn't fully understand the decision-making process; I think it should be clearer and more easily identifiable for the player. Nonetheless, I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Congratulations!

Thanks so much for checking it out and for all your kind words! I really appreciate it :3
I can totally see where you’re coming from in regards to the choices. Normally, I would include more to go off of, but because this was also made for O2A2 Jam and they said that any text on player choices also counted towards the word limit, I was more brief than usual >.< Still, I could have expanded on it for the Director’s Cut version at least and it just completely skipped my mind, haha. Probably cos I gave myself too much to do as usual and wound up panicking trying to get it all finished in time for both jams like a silly sausage! I suppose it’s something I can do in an update at some point though. Cheers for bringing it up :3
Also, I’m really looking forward to checking out your game when I get a chance btw! The cover and page caught my eye right away when I was looking through everything submitted to the jam :D
Haha, I completely understand, don't worry. I'm looking forward to playing the rest of your games because your proposal has been my favorite so far among those I've tried ^^.
I'll be waiting for your feedback! The truth is, we ran out of time. It's the first time we've created a game together, and we are total beginners, so we couldn't complete all the features we had in mind for the game, but we'll finish it and keep updating it. Thank you for everything!
Oh, man, well, that means a heck of a lot :3
I’m hoping to get a chance to play more stuff sometime this week, with any luck, on Friday once I’ve gotten some chores outta the way, haha. There’s so much I want to check out and never enough time to do it >.<
That’s rough though running out of time, but still, if it’s your first time making stuff together, at least you managed to submit something:3 That’s a victory in itself, especially if you guys are total beginners. I would never have guessed that at all from the page because it all looks extremely well put together! Making anything on a tight deadline is always gonna be a challenge, when you’re learning stuff on the go too, it’s like adding an extra level of difficulty, haha. As you say though, you can always work on it more casually now and get it to a point that you’re all happy with :D The main thing is that you started it in the first place!
