Hell yea! Ngl I was half expecting something... else... to have happened to hecate's ex, so the end being played straight really got to me. It engaged me really effectively in general - the intro and dialogue interactions were well written and the ratcheting worked really well for a story of this length. The cultists were so threatening and aggressive! And I loved how much they seek you out compared to the cops just looming in the darkness, hovering, foreboding.

A good game with an intriguing story that had me wanting more of it! I enjoyed the dialogue interactions and I found the level to be a decent size with some nice artwork. The mysterious and spooky mood was well conveyed throughout.
I did find it a bit confusing that cultists in the house killed me after I was able to talk with one in the woods. A clearer visual distinction between characters that talk to you and characters that will attack you would have helped. I also think it would have been nice to increase the pixel scale of the game so the artwork could be better appreciated, as it was a very small window.
Overall, I had a good time playing this. Nice job with the game!
Spooky story, took me longer than I care to admit to realise how to get around the sisters at the start
