As a fan of surreal RPGmaker games, I found this one pretty interesting! Here's my playthrough for those that want to watch:

I want to emphasize that the game is competently made. The puzzles were clever (though pretty difficult at times, but I'm terrible at puzzles), the visual style is cool, and there is even a bit of variety to the gameplay.

However, my main gripe is the lack of an engaging story. It seems like the intro and ending cutscenes indicate that the main character is simply retelling a weird dream she had to her friends at school, which kind of takes away any mystery from the game (unless I'm a dummy and there is something I'm misunderstanding).

It doesn't necessarily need a deep narrative, but for a RPGmaker game tagged with "horror" and "surreal", I expected something akin to Yume Nikki where there's an overarching theme to everything in the dream and a much darker story to find hidden just beneath the surface.

Overall, I think it's a good prototype, but a little bit of direction in terms of what the game is supposed to be about would make it much more memorable, in my opinion.

Also, as an aside, I did find a compressed folder named "bonus" in the game files. It requires a password to extract it though. I don't know if it's part of the game, but a hint would be nice if possible!

Thanks for your "Thoughts"! I am glad you found the experience enjoyable.

The main character IS retelling a recurring dream she has to her college friends. However. Dreams are not only a reflection of events. They are a way to process (and even resolve) real-life problems. So, by guiding Veronica, you are helping her through whatever she found herself in. Is it some deep, dark, dramatic secret? Probably not. That doesn't mean it's unimportant or 'random'!

Of course, you can think what you want; I am not the Thought Police.

The hint: Is there an object in the game which can give you a string of numbers after writing a  word?
