Fantastic VN with great artwork and a lovely story. I did get a couple of errors in the web build that might have caused some graphics problems and maybe a crash at the end. 

Reminds me of another game called "Before your Eyes"

Developer

Yeah, to be totally honest we didn't do much testing on the web build - the game was designed to be downloaded, and the web build was more of an afterthought to make it easier for those who may not have much - if any  - storage space on their PC's, or bad internet. Still, glad you enjoyed it!

Oh that’s evil </3 I really don’t think I got the good ending but I played through until the game wouldn’t let me anymore and I certainly got an ending…

I said it before on someone else’s submission, but VNs are seriously underrated so I’m always thrilled when I come across one, especially in jams like this. Incredible work! You’ve crafted a beautiful story!

That is THE ending, I can probably say that much without spoiling anything. May add more endings/routes to some kind of expanded version at some point. Thank you!

I'm not a big fan of this genre, but the art quality is really good

Thank you 🥰

Great game! It is very well done and polished. I love all the art and the story telling is impressive. I will say, I have yet to get "the ending". I have limited time tonight but I will be giving it a replay when I am able. Good job! Also, if you have some time, I'd love to hear what you think about my game!

Not really my type of game, but I was positively surprised by the story and art and ultimately enjoyed my time with the game.

I couldn't get another ending, and only now do I see the comment where you mention there are more rooms. I'll try again 

By the way, your drawings are very pretty ^^

Awwwh! Thank you! Thank you for the critique too. Once this is over the full release will be wayyyy more polished because of you and others help!

impressive art! although i wasn’t able to get another ending apart from the default one where the spouse dies of surgery. the “maybe there’s an item you can pick?” is too vague to me and couldn’t find anything else

Developer

Yeah I'm beginning to realise that might have been too vague - look in the bedroom, if you move the mouse around the screen you'll probably spot what you need

If you cant figure out how to get to the bedroom, when you're in the living room, bring your mouse to the bottom of the screen. Thank you for the compliments on the art 🥰

OH THERE WAS AN ENTIRE OTHER ROOM??

that explains everything lol. thanks TheCeo16 for telling me! i now think that I’ve beaten the game (i was playing on the browser and now the game quits itself every time, so yeah I’m guessing what that “reset tool” is, although it seems to not be in the browser version.)

thanks again devs! good job making the game :D
