The artwork is mesmerizing! Examining items and going through dialogue feels very nice too, really awesome job!
Thank you for the nice comment!
Holy cow! That game is the most uniqe game I ever seen in months, I think you inspired by "am I nima" you have a lot of in common with " am I nima". Even though you both are visiual novel, you two scared the shit out of me. But ther is the thing, I liked it. I give it a 5/5. That's really good job you did there
Thank you so much for taking the time to play it! It's the first time i've heard of the game actually but it seems really cool! I'll check it out fs
Very bag of milk inside of a bag of milk. Thats a good thing.
This is genuinely one of the best visual novels I've seen in a game jam. The eerie art style with its off-putting green and red color scheme works so well to set the mood, same with the music. That first scary moment (no spoilers!) got me good. I loved how the story slowly built up to a big climax at the end. Great work!
We really appreciate this comment. Glad to hear that the visual and audible elements paired well together. Thank you for plying the game, and thank you for the nice comment!
Well done with the visuals! Cool to see that you went with a VN/point and click type of game! Good work!
Hehehe thank you xd
Beautiful art! The audio works well. You really build the suspense well! Great job!
Thanks a lot! :)
Bon jeu, pas très joyeux. Très beau graphisme, le son colle bien au scène. gameplay facile à prendre en main. Bravo !
Amazing art! The memory sequences during the five things was incredible! Loved the design of the memory UI.
We're glad you liked it
OMG what!!! This is so good??? The art? Hello???? The story... wow, super cool.
Thank you 😂
Crazy good! It had me tense the whole game, with insanely good sound management and remarkable wellmade art! the inventory is a piece in itself. Y'all impressed me with the quality of the game in every aspect, from the banner to the memories and the final perspective shift at the end.
Thank you very much!
I enjoyed this short visual novel. The art style and the slow dramatic tensions was masterfully implemented into this game. Although, I had a subtle feeling that it was him who killed her at the start.
Possibly, before the puzzle of the select 5 items you can touch, feel and hear you can add like loud thuds at the door and fake dialogue to create the illusion that the killer is there but then realise that was all internal manic thoughts once the girl appears.
I loved the ending where it had the movie like flashbacks and camera zoom ins. However, I do not know but is the ending just a still image of him. I love visual novels and from my experience this was a very well written and drawn visual novel 10/10
Thank you so much for taking the time to play and comment :> ! I agree if we'd had more time there's a lot more thematically elements we would have liked to add and that is a good idea tbh. The ending is just a still image yes however and it should quit but it seems the web build crashes so we'll fix it post voting period, but dw you didn't miss out on anything,
I really liked the drawings. I also liked the game's visual cohesion overall. Great job—it looks like a niche project.
Holy smokes this is amazing. I am a big fan of this, the art, the audio, THAT HEAD MENU UI WOW. I love games like Milk inside a bag of milk inside a bag of milk and Looking Up I See Only A Ceiling and this really reminded me of those. Fantastic job!
Thank you very much! We're glad you like it :)
10/10 nothing else
The art, narration and sounds are sooooo sooo nice. And that head UI is magnificent
I'm really sad that I couldn't end it. The game froze after "memories" came to mc (in web build played in Firefox), and at encounter with the girl (in windows build)
Ah, the windows build is supposed to just quit the application after the memories come back (dramatic effect lol) so you did finish! Just forgot to remove that for the web build, oopsies (unsure about the windows issue though, it seems to be working fine for us? hm). Thank you so much though!! Saw your submission while uploading ours and really wanted to play it later today, it looks great too! :D
Small note, for some reason the main menu in the web build only shows if you full screen :')
