- This was sad and also horrifying. Great job on a visual storytelling style game. The art was good and creepy and the vibes were spooky the whole time. I could see this becoming a larger game if you were to continue it

This is incredible. Great work. Especially for the time frame you had, you cooked so hard. If this is what you can do in a few days, what you can do over months or a year would be phenomenal.
Also got both endings! I'm wondering what the exact requirements are
Exactly the steps you made to get the good ending (it’s more specific than I would have liked). Initially I intended on having more events happen to more easily counter the “bad” choices. But yea, five day Jam 😅
Amazingly polished experience with a genuinely creepy atmosphere. I played a second time to try to get the good ending but unfortunately still didn't get it. Would be keen to revisit once it's updated :)
Was hiding behind my fingers while playing ha
You absolutely nailed the horror vibes in this! The audio elements added so much to it, visuals are amazing. Nice work!
I can see all the love you put into this <3
You absolutely cooked!
you did really well when it came to the ambiance of the game, great work
Took a few tries to get that good ending! A great little playthrough, definitely something I'd recommend to a friend.
Aesthetically delightful!!
Thank you so much! And well done on being (to my knowledge) the first person to get the good ending without me walking through the steps!
excellent art direction! Had me hooked for multiple attempts, would have kept going till I got the good ending if it weren't for the broken retry button
Thank you for playing multiple times! And yeah I am aware of the bugged out ending and it will be fixed. Thank you for the kind words!
Absolutely incredible visual style and experience for such a short turn over! I love the theming of the red box, both appearing in the type face and in framing important scenes.
Thank you so much for your kind words. I have to ask tho, did you stay past the credits?
I did! I got the bad ending... :(. I tried again, but encountered a bug where I couldn't click any of the travel locations, and I'm short on review time so I had to leave it there unfortunately. When the post credits started though I got a proper fright and was very impressed!
I'm aware of the bug and know how to fix it, time just did not permit. It will be addressed post-Jam. Thank you once again for your kind words :)
