Cool game, great art and music. The mirrors to Greek mythology are very interesting. Was a little difficult to find some of the sticky notes, but easier once I knew what to look for.

Omega F in chat for the github incident, me and the CEO man have started using a private git server for everything lately and it's been pretty nice. I'm usually not crazy about this gameplay format but the art and atmosphere is pretty amazing on this one.
Sorry to hear about that github incident, that's really scary.
Love the atmosphere, the music and the art. It's all fantastic!
Side note : I think the sticky notes should be more visible to the player :p
This was so spooky! I'm terrible with horror games so I had to stop a couple times, but I made it to the ending and the atmosphere on this game was so well done! The music was super unnerving, and the art is wonderful, plus I love Greek mythology. The fact that half the time I felt like I was just wandering aimlessly made it even more off-putting, but I think that was the point. Side note, I really wanted to pet the dog. Anyways, great work!!
A nice little proof of concept. I definitely am curious where it's a going.
Man, that ending's got me hooked! I liked the visuals and music! It's unfortunate that GitHub deleted all your work, but I hope you get to flesh out the game more after the jam!
Ok I live the fact this game give me early 2010's vibe. It honestly feels like those old rpg maker horror games. Im not sure if this is a bug, but i like it anyways, I noticed there was some notes in certain areas I already visited, and it made me feel like "did i miss this before?" Which is great, because changing environments you've been to before do well with making horror games, because the player thinks they're going crazy.
Also not much i could say other than there definitely is some bugs that have affected me when trying to find notes. Had to restart the game a lot. 3:
Overall, this is a fine game :3
thank you for giving this game a shot!! im so glad you liked the placement of the sticky notes, that makes me so happy to hear because i agonized over those for a while!!
if you remember any of the bugs, please let me know!! i'd love to get those fixed as soon as possible to prevent them from happening again. im sorry you had to restart it a lot :(
Very cool game, I'm really bad with horror so this had me on edge lol. Very cool way of telling the story while getting more and more unnerving. The character art is really good, such a nice art style! The ending was cool too, awesome story wise and the art was very detailed too! My only real complaint is the different pixel art sizes, but still, it's a very good game with a great atmosphere. Awesome work!
thank you so much for playing, especially since you're bad with horror!! im so happy you caught onto it getting more and more unnerving. i tried out a new style for this, im so glad its been so well recieved!! the pixel art sizes being different was something we couldnt fix last minute, we totally understand!! we plan on changing them to match persephone asap!!
This got me so intrigued!! I was always looking forward to the next sticky note, as they kept getting more creepy :') I wish it had an ending, because it keept me wanting more. Good job!!
Note: I think I encountered a bug where the flashlight would always aim up! so it was a bit hard to find the notes!
Turned into a vacuum cleaner to find all of the notes. Also i adore the art (both pixel and the drawn one (i don't know how to say "non pixel", sorry)) Persephone is a cutie. One minor notice - the Persephone's sprite and the objects sprites got a different resolution, so it seems a bit off, but nothing serious. Great game
Super fun! I like the pixel art, and it's a really interesting way to present a story too. I'm not sure if I found all the sticky notes since I wasn't keeping track, haha. I feel like I searched every inch of the house though.
The music is very well chosen! It really creates a sense of suspense and the feeling that something is definitely about to happen.
I really liked the storytelling choise and overall atmosphere ~
