- Apparently, there are six endings in the game (I got ending number 5), but it’s hard to understand what the story is about due to the poor writing. I’d suggest the developer ask someone to proofread and grammar-check the script next time, or at least provide a story summary on the game page to give readers more context. The transitions between scenes, especially involving the character sprites, are quite janky, with sprites suddenly jumping to different positions. That said, I do appreciate the use of color filters to help blend the sprites with the background. Since the setting is Jakarta, it would be nice to see more elements of local culture mentioned in the story. Nevertheless, while there are many areas to improve, I congratulate the developer on finishing their first visual novel!
How does this project relate to the jam theme? (Judge Question)
It providing two point of view about a same tragedic event, both of it had a same result of trauma. Something that kill you slowly, seeping into your heart. Although what makes it kill is different chemical (emotion) but it had same goal, killing you slowly

This. This one really stings and heart-breaking.
Ola is absolutely not a perfect human, but she deserves forgiveness. In other hands, I can understand why Kura has a hard time to forgive the past.
Very much enjoyed the story, and congrats for your first game!
Jujur ceritanya ini agak membingunkan kenapa bisa jadi escelate jadi gitu, ditambah enggak ada blurp atau sinopsis di page utama jadi lebih tambah bingung, setelah baca ceritanya saat pilihannya cabang ini cukup membingungkan yang antara POV siapa dan siapa, di satu sisi satu pilihan ini ane kira dari POV A ternyata POV B begitu juga kebalikannya.
I like the concept of using photo as background. I feel it makes the story feel more personal.
Ouch Jakarta's night traffic jam...
a nice story though sometimes a little confusing, never got the 1st and 6th ending though
