Great atmosphere ! The visuals and sound effects work really well
It's a neat short story that wraps up well - it feels a bit like a playable nanofiction
I didn't really get the little foreshadowing before ending the game, but it should have clicked during the last dialogue with the professor. It's a nice detail.

The camera switching to 180°C in some dialogues is a bit hard on the eyes though, especially when switching each dialogue line but the effect worked well in other cases

Loved the obra-dinn style. Dithering makes a real stylish feeling game. Managed to guess the plot twist shortly before the reveal, so good job with the dialogue and scenario design there! Also loved that there was a save system for me to come back to it when i felt like reading. Nice work!

The graphics are cool, but I struggled to read the words. Anyway, it's an interesting game!

Thank you <3 I built my own dithering render graph + a screen space outline to get the effect. And of course I will rate your game!
