I opened the box of decorations first and forgot about the furniture until I was done with them lol
I guess whoever lives here will just have to sleep on the beanbag.
Absolutely beautiful. I wish they understood each other better.

The shapeshifter knew much about her, but it didn't know human boundaries, silent rules like territory in homes. It didn't know how the unusual can look like a threat.
She knew nothing about them, but she knew monotony. And when that monotony is broken by something, something that might as well be everything in the world for how far its influence seems to be, she knew fear.
When looking through her eyes, I was anxious. I was a bit scared. I felt bad for her with her job and increasing fear. I felt relief each time she defeated the latest intruder. I felt a bit of loss when she killed her, but I was mostly hoping she would be free from this after this.
And looking through their eyes. The sheer admiration. The sheer love. The unconditional adoration. And the innocence they interacted with the world with, learning what it was like to be alive and still having it tie into Her, with Her at the center of their world. And the way they just wanted it back, to be loved in the way they love her, unaware that they were terrifying her. Their increasing desperation, the way their love evolved with both positive and negative emotions, but was still ultimately love. How she was the most beautiful being in the world to them, in many ways. And knowing how it all ended.
You might as well have just stabbed me. AUGH. ;-;
To dogs, a tail wagging is a friendly gesture. To cats it is a sign that the other is mad. I don't think this metaphor fits them exactly, but I'm pretty sleep deprived right now so I'll pretend it works.
I also really liked the design of this game. It had a strong visual personality that fit the story so well. Just having black and white was such a good choice. I feel like it is significant to the themes but I feel like I've ranted enough.
You're also very good at story formatting. It flowed very smoothly. And you are such a good writer. Your descriptions painted richly despite the fact that there was just black and white, and the story itself is heartbreaking and wonderful.
Sorry if this comment sounds weird or something, this game just gave me a lot of feelings and I figured that it would be good to share them. And I'm sorry if I sound pretentious, like I said, I'm pretty sleep deprived right now.
