Hey, really enjoyed this game, even though I got stuck in the lamp room for a while... I really like the mystery to it, and I think that mystery is made even more interesting by the non-inclusion of back story narration etc. I felt the experience is much more interactive and involving when there are gaps in the story that arn't required to be filled for narrative purposes, but invite the player fill them with their interpretations...

Ace game!, look forward to playing more things like it...

Hi jsezz! :D

Thanks for playing and I'm really glad you enjoyed it!

Those little gaps are always my favorite part of any story! Having said that, I wish I'd been able to give the lady a bit more character, a more nuanced performance would give the player more to interpret! I had enough trouble getting her to turn around without exploding though never mind getting her to look wistful!

Cheers,

Nick
