I really like the atmosphere this game set while not being too graphically intensive. The vibe was cool and it was setup to be an amazing story, a shame it ended so quick. The game has good potential.

Developer

Thank you! I’ll definitely be revisiting this.

I enjoyed it. I really like these kinds of games, and the art was great. The only downside I found was that just when it starts to get interesting, the game suddenly ends. Otherwise, great job.

Developer

Thanks for playing! This is an idea I’d like to revisit sometime. It’s definitely cut off prematurely, and I think that’s partly because I spent too much time tweaking the graphics and not enough implementing the gameplay.

I absolutely love the atmosphere and the art, and I think the sound really fits the experience. The ending is a bit abrupt, I agree with the rest of the comments on that, but visually I love it!

Developer

Thanks! Glad you liked it.

And yeah, I’d honestly chalk that up to poor time management. I got hung up on a couple things that took longer than they should’ve to fix about halfway through development 😭

The ending was a little jarring, but aside from that this was great! The art is fantastic and you nailed the lovecraftian vibe

Developer

Thank you! Honestly, I wasn’t super confident in the little narrative beats when I submitted, so I’m glad to hear that 😭

This was super cool to see PICO-8 game. Super sad you didn't have time for an ending, otherwise it had some neat art and a nice oppressive atmosphere when you get to the latter half of the game!

Developer

Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed.
