Howdy, wanted to thank y'all for an amazing game. I'd also like to encourage you to consider adding a colorblind mode to the full release of the game. Certain puzzles are next to impossible without help if you're colorblind. Thank you for your time.
I've put in a lot of thought on what sort of comment to leave for other people looking to get into this game, and to the devs. The best way I can think of to do so is to mention a review off a random site, which sung this game's praises, while saying that the scope of the game is limited. Sure, the game only takes place in an apartment building. But this is a game that paints foreshadowing into every moment, every line, everything means something. It's so well planned that I think widening the "scope" of this game would have taken away from that, and from the themes of the game.
So then I was trying to think about what I disliked about this game, if anything. I enjoy being critical of things even I adore, it's part of me enjoying something fully. I, however, as much as I try, cannot come up with any real faults. While playing the game I did worry that the game's overarching themes would be lost on the main audience, a sort of "preaching to the choir" syndrome, but I'm happy to say that the game did a great job at side stepping that as well, and delivering a message that I myself needed to really hear, even if I didn't think I needed it at first.
The artwork and assets work together seamlessly, the writing is intentional and impactful, the music is haunting and relentless, and everything works together to sink you into this world.
My only real suggestion for those who aren't sure if this game is for them is to take the trigger warnings seriously. I had to put this game down and take breaks for my own mental health, make sure to put yourself first before any game.
