Thank you so much! I put a lot of effort into the atmosphere, sounds, and visuals, so I'm really glad they came together well!

A great game—I loved the concept, and the dialogue is great. The gameplay and graphics were also really good. I hope you keep working on it and improving it.

Possible skill issue, but I could not find where to go after the talking head appeared and told me to take the cross-road on the right.

Developer

It's ok you just have to find the girl may e try going behind from the gravestone?

I really enjoyed this one, I didn't end up finding the third ending, but either way it was a great game!

Developer

Thanks so much as long as you had fun

Submitted

Really neat. Getting all three endings was rewarding, and you learned new things every time you played!

Developer

Thank you I was trying to make them all connected to an overarching story

Submitted

The movement felt very smooth for a top-down style game! Also I appreciate the effort that went into the dialogue and story for the game!

Submitted

Great game! I love RPG games and it really reminds me of those old games you'd play growing up on a nintendo console.

Developer

Yeah I miss those too

Submitted

Adorable game, I'm a big fan of top down RPG games in pixel art style. I feel like you should spend time after the jam to make this a full game, it has a lot of potential and I feel like with some more time, this can be improved a bit to polish everything! Good luck, enjoyed it!!

Developer

Thanks I will work on improving it even more after the jam.

Submitted

A really interesting concept! I think the work you put into the narrative and dialogue was impressive. Even though there are a few environment bugs, I found the experience really engaging. I feel that adding more interaction between the characters could make it even stronger. Great job!

Developer

Thanks I will work on it more.

I have rated you game too

Man! I am sure this game was not easy to make. The visuals and overall gameplay was a nice feel. Its a different game from what I have been playing for hours. Really congrats! 3 endings are a nice touch. I really should learn how to make that mechanic. On a side note , I think a little guidance would make your game a little bit immersive. Congrats!

I would appreciate it if you can play and rate my game too! /jam/brackeys-16/rate/4951523

Thanks I played you game (and rated it)and quite liked it too.

Looks like it has generative AI content, but i don’t care. I like that it has multiple endings, so i have things to explore. Additionally, i can say that the game is pretty enjoyable. You made a good game, TechnoVulcan 😎
