Impressively immersive for such a short experience, even without having played the previous part I felt like I had a good sense of who the characters were right away. I love interactive fiction and this was a nice little story to crawl into, and surprisingly warm and cozy considering the subject matter. The writing was excellent, brief but descriptive, and the dialogue felt really genuine and brought out the characters. I also really appreciate tone or context clues for dialogue choices, and the emoji were a perfect choice. Great work!
