It is absolutely amazing! I am crazy about weirdcore/dreamcore, and i am so happy that there is A WHOLE GAME with such style! More dreamcore to a god of dreamcore O3O
As for the game itself, i found it very cute, really. It is sweet and inspiring, but not in a moralizing way. I believe we all have our End of the world, sometimes it happens more often, sometimes less. And we all want to hide from it in a room behind a white door.
But we can't hide forever. And sometimes it is worth facing this End and realizing it is not that scary! And more importantly - with friends and strawberry cupcakes - no apocalypse can be frightening hahaha
As a person who heavily struggles with mental health - such games really affect me.
Good luck in future projects, dear creator <3

Thank you so much for your lovely comment! Sorry for not responding earlier.
There are more weirdcore and dreamcore games on this site that you should absolutely check out if you haven't already. I really enjoyed playing Eurydice--it's a very short VN with two endings.
I'm really glad you liked the story. One of my goals when writing it was to make sure that it didn't come off as preachy, which is an easy trap to fall into, so I decided that when the player asks the adults for help, the adults should give them real answers, answers that they believe in, not watered down answers because they're "just a child."
There's something really beautiful about good endings. There's this sense to me that friendship is eternal. The story may end, but the relationships continue.
I also struggle with mental health. In fact, it has just occurred to me that I have had mental health problems for longer than not. I am glad that this game was a comfort to you.
