Love the atmosphere on this. The sound effect totally set the tone. Also love the pixelated fingerprints

Such a cool game!  Stellar graphics, and the sound design was fantastic as well (I'm a sucker for good sound design, so this really pulled me in!).  The gameplay was also fun, lots to keep track of but didn't feel overwhelming.  I do feel like maybe sometimes RNG was working against me, because it was hard to meet some of the quotas.  I also encountered a few UI bugs (tooltips sticking around, etc), but nothing too distracting.

Great work! :)

I was hoping someone would a cthulhu take on the theme! Delighted that it's such a clean game, the art style and the game play loop really suit the cosmic horror genre.

The game is great, but it's hard to understand all the hints. I had two bugs happen; one is that the item description stayed up until the next time he arrived, and I think the second one is the waves, unless I somehow got unlucky in my second playthrough and an entire day was demons. Either way, I loved the game and the play loop. Good job

Wait, I'm sorry, for 10 days? Who are you? I'm astonished and a little scared.

It's amazing, the art style, the music, the atmosphere. GREAT JOB!

Woah, this was actually insane. The footsteps, the bells, the incorrect or correct decisions, this all felt very very very very in depth. The first day I was very confused about my decisions, because when do I ferry and when do I refuse? Do I want money? Is it that important? Who do I sacrifice? 
The art's incredible, the audio is great. Apart from a few spelling mistakes, everything was cohesive. And I assume that's cthulhu at the end. For 10 days, this is incredible.

This is such a complete game, as weird as that might sound. It's just good, while also fitting the game jam criteria really well. And especially the graphics, I really like how they look, even beyond the game jam's limitations
