1. You're right, I should be able to read a story in whatever order I want.
2. TouchButter is a great name. Maybe for a bird or a fish.
3. This has be exploring the ditherpunk tag and finally thinking "what if I made a game with decker."

Aw yay! You've inspired me to go back and rework some of the descriptions. I almost added this to another list I have called traveling circles if you'd be interested in checking that out. Thanks for making games and sharing them!
What a great premise and payoff. And just the storytelling structure is so fun and good! I love a set time for the story that I also get to set my own pace to. Actually, I didn't realize it was in real time the first playthrough, so I ended up clicking through most of the dialogue fast enough the second time that I got to the God intervention. Ha!
Also, have you read "Horse" by Amy Bonnaffons? (I guess that's the story of the bar where girls get turned into horses.)
Finally got around to playing this game, and it's just as good as people say! Really frustrating, too, but that just makes me want to play it multiple times.
Also, the tone, map exploration, conversation/relationship management, and "skill" juggling to gain access to different routes remind me a bit of Saltsea Chronicles.
Thanks for this! I got the right answer but was a little confused as to why my order was correct. Your comment that "there's only so many combinations of the numbers on this phone that can total 8" set my mind at ease that there isn't a clue necessarily for the correct order, but that a few different guessing attempts are allowed.
Loved loved loved this. Didn't "win" the first time, which was great actually since it incentivized me to go back and play again and see a full set of completely new storycards. Amazed that you wrote 3 different iterations of each story moment in the Odyssey. And the UI was simple, manageable, and satisfying!
A really, really, truly lovely little game. The gameplay was engaging enough that I could have gone much longer, and the sound effects and UI are both really pleasing. But it's the built-in narrative motivating the player to complete each puzzle sequence that's really clever and satisfying. Thanks for the great game!
