This is a really interesting project, the image adjustments is a really cool idea and the overall mood and writing in the story is well done, its creepy and has interesting commentary on the difference between the online world and the "real" world. There are some branches that are unfinished, so it's easy to get stuck and have to go back. It also seems like the two separate branch, the one starting with the image, and the other with going outside, never seem to connect later on, maybe I didn't find the right path, but it seems like two completely different experience, it would be good to have them intersect, either at the end or somewhere in the middle, or have ways of going back and forth. I was only able to get the "BREAKING NEWS" ending, which is well done, although, there are some pathways that seem to get there before revealing important information, like the missing posters existing. I also had a bit of a hard time adjusting the photo, eventually I got it by just clicking on the links a lot, but I'm not sure what actually got me through, some kind of overall settings display would be helpful so I can track how far I've gone with various settings.
Overall this is a really cool and ambitious approach, I would love to see more work on this.
I really liked the mystery and horror idea of your game. The missing children posters, the TV, and the mailman made me curious about what was happening and made me want to explore the different choices. I also liked how some details from earlier in the story connected to things that happened later.
One thing I think could be improved is the clarity of the story. I was a little confused about what was really happening and what the mailman's role was. There were also a few paths that I couldn't fully explore. For example, “Ignore him” wasn't clickable, “Join him” led me to a black screen, and I got stuck while trying different settings with the picture. I think checking these paths and adding a little more explanation or hints would make the story easier to follow.
Overall, I liked the mystery of the game and I think the idea is really interesting. Fixing some of the paths and making a few parts clearer would make it easier to understand and explore the whole story.
This is such a cool game! I love the use of images as well as the changes in text, like with the text flashing or shaking. One issue is that there is no continuation after the red '1 reply' after clicking the 00014. There is also a option that is broken when interacting with the mail man, not being able to ignore him. I think there is other routes and options that lead to empty pages-
Overall I love the vibe of the game, and the polish and effects being put into it!
I was NOT expecting that ending. I intentionally chose the most cliche horror story bad decision possible, but did not expect to be hit with a PSA, bravo. This is good on a few levels. Was hoping for some more pictures throughout since you started me off with one. But the cliche' kind of situation was enough to make me want to see where this was going to see if it was just going to be another cliche, turn to horror, or something else entirely, and this was something else, and unexpected.
I am unfortunately experiencing a bug on the first page. I can't see any text or progress any further. I love the image, though. It makes the experience more immersive.
