Liked the presentation and the scary vibe. Graphics were very good for the jam time too. I only wished that the games had some more audio feedback to you successfully completing them or the monster coming closer to you. There has a heartbeat sound at first but it went away after I got through 3 or so doors.

I really enjoyed this short story! The overall atmosphere is great and the little segments with the puzzles were a welcome break from it all being just story.
I do see 2 things which I would change personally. First, I'm not sure if an option like this exists on Gamemaker but usually there's a setting which causes games to keep the same base resolution even when stretched out. This is usually done for pixel art games and it would help you avoid these imperfections whenever the camera pans up and down:
Second, the ending just ends way too suddenly. You have loud sounds which then just abruptly cut out. Maybe just adding a fade out with some "The End" text would suffice for that.
But overall, I really did enjoy this and I'm looking forward to your 3rd game!
Btw, thanks for the detailed issues you listed on Suited Scarlett. I'm 99% sure I've determined the cause of the crash and will have it fixed in a soon to come patch.
Man the first 2 parts of this episode were really good. The atmosphere was great and the creepy moments kept me wondering what was going to happen next.
Part 3 though feels frustrating due to the mechanics not being explained very well. I kept dying without figuring out why just because I moved too far from the grave. When I eventually found out you needed to light the fire and stay close to it, I dumped all the logs at once thinking that's how you kept the demon away. I ended up dying like 10 times before giving up. It wouldn't even be so bad if you could skip the graveyard cutscene after watching it or adding a retry button that takes you straight to part 3 instead of back to the main menu.
I gotta say though, the interactive main menu is very nice and a cool detail. Can't wait for the rest of the episodes!
