Cool little game, well done. I liked the two sections where your actions in game directly translated to that out of the game (though having two of those in a 10 minute game might be a little much). Also: I think the Monster design itself and the scares were a little weak. I would've preferred a less visable monster, leaving more to the imagination (the pixel sprite is a perfect representation for the monster already). Still pretty enjoyable though

Wow, this was unexpected. I randomly downloaded this game after a bit of scrolling because it looked interesting. Turned out to be a greater work of art than I expected!

The suggestion to stop and notice the thoughts that go through your head is nice, but I think the main character's thoughts themselves have something about them.

Thoughts like the walls sometimes seeming cozy and sometimes confining. The self doubt about the obvious line in the rug where he started working on it himself, even though that it seems to be visible only to the character himself. The unfulfilled promises to his own younger self. Questions like "is this what growing up feels like?". Suddenly noticing the passing of time while examining the sneakers. Clinging to his friends and his uncles memory even though it causes him physical pain... something about these thoughts just feels distinctly... human I guess. 

The art direction itself was great as well. I liked the unique visual artstyle as well as each of the objects in his room being represented as their own instrument in a beautiful song, like they each play their part in making this space what it is.  (This somewhat reminds me of Jacob Geller's Essay 'The Intimacy Of Everyday Objects', while writing lol).

Thank you for creating and sharing this work of art with us!

No idea. I guess he wouldn't just respond publicly, so I guess it's worth a shot. What do we got to lose?

You can't buy the game on steam in germany, but orange is kindly giving out steam keys to people who purchased it on here, so we're asking for them in order to have our libraries in one place

Hey, orange!

Yet another german here in need of steam keys! Sorry to have to spam the comments here like this, but I'd really appreciate it. 

Thanks for your great work and thanks in advance for the keys!
