Wow. This was a very interesting experience.


[Spoilers ahead!]


I am a big fan of OW (as you may already know), and naturally, I got curious about this game as well, so I decided to play it. And I don't regret my decision at all! (Well, okay, maybe just a little...)


The game was very enjoyable. It felt quite different from OW (mainly because it's an RPG and not a VN lol), but there was still a lot of that Signature Carrot Style™ in it. It was... much darker too. Like, OW is dark, don't get me wrong, and I knew this game would be too, but...!?!?!? I just... I did not expect it to take some of the directions it did. 💦 I will admit, though, it is a bit rough around the edges, especially in the story department. But that is to be expected, considering the game is half a decade old. I still really liked it, though! I found the symbolism and game mechanics to be quite creative, and I'm very glad this gave you enough experience to eventually make OW! You've definitely improved a lot. :3


Also, I really liked Markiplier Nester, he's gotta be my favorite. He strikes me as the gentle giant type. I know that sounds a bit odd, considering he literally tried to kill his brother, but... just hear me out, okay? He doesn't actually go through with it, and from the dialogue he has with Easter afterwards, it's clear he's trying his best to move on and become a better person. I respect that a lot and feel very bad for him... Also, you didn't hear this from me, but he's pretty cute... He looks like he would give great cuddles, but who's to say, really?... Well, unless, y'know, he'd be willing to let me verify... AHEM AHEM! Yikes, I can't believe I just wrote that, what has gotten into me? This is like Orlam all over again... Agh, Carrot, you need to stop making your characters so loveable! My heart can only take so much!!!


Anyways, yeah, I quite enjoyed this little bundle of horror! It was very cool to see where you started from, and how much you've improved. And that's pretty much all I've got to say, so, bye, Carrot! Hope you have a good day. :3

AHhhhhhhh thank you so much for taking the time to play this!! It really means a lot, especially as I know this game has many issues LOLOL 🤣💦 This was the first time I tried to take an idea and turn it into a game, and I learned a whole lot in the process, which I'm quite grateful for (I never would have gone on to create OW without having first made this LOL). I still love the characters a lot and they'll always remain in my heart, but there were definitely things in both the story and a LOT of things in the design that today I'm just like... guh... about hahahaha. I'm glad you could still enjoy it though despite everything!!

If anything, looking at my two (main) games side by side, it's quite easy to see the types of stuff I like writing about and exploring LMAO. I mean besides the horror in general, stuff like groups of childhood friends with slowly revealed complicated and/or horrific pasts. I was able to do a lot more with this though in OW as I had a lot more room to explore the characters and flesh them out a lot more (and not rely so much on shock-type stuff or some mildly overused tropes).

LOL I'M GLAD YOU LIKED NESTER??? He feels like the most complicated character in this game perhaps. And I had a lot of fun exploring both a "terrifying" version of him and a "righteous" version of him going between the different endings. Also why do I always like to make the youngest member of the group the tallest LOL

Anyway, thank you again for playing and for putting up with the frustrating game design in order to finish it lolol. Despite its flaws, this game will always hold a special place in my game dev journey (and heart ldkajfds) 🥺💕
