I LOVE the art in this game! The music and sound design is also immaculate. Awesome job!
I really loved the dynamic sprites of the child changing as you progressed through the story. As a lover of visual novels you all did an amazing job
The vibes were immaculate and the story hits the exact right emotional beats for each of the four endings (especially the bed ending). I also love how the child's form changes depending on your choices, and how that can even influence which choices you can make later on. In a game like this, the attention to detail when it comes to your choices makes all the difference, and I feel like y'all nailed it in that regard. Great stuff!
I got four endings, which I assume is most of them. The character designs were great, especially the SUN and MOON. I really liked the Eclipse ending, the way you handled it managed to surprise me despite the title. I like the premise and there were a few interesting interactions. I wish there was a bit more to the relationship between the SUN and MOON and their followers, but it worked for the story.
Ohoho as a longtime visual novel/interactive fiction enjoyer, this was really fun!! I was able to get to the four different endings and I frankly really liked how each choice the player could make were reasonably connected to whichever ending. It really did feel like every choice mattered. I love the Sun and Moon designs and the storyline!!!
There are 4 Endings, try to find them all
Yoooo GameMaker?? Let's goooooo! Must have missed you guys at the jam. I'm a pro GM dev for the past 10 years, would have loved to chat.
Anyways!
Sound design and atmosphere were *awesome*. Very immersive and creepy, kinda giving Undertale vibes. Glad I played with volume up, and there's some really nice pixel art as well.
After my first playthrough I was left with so many questions and curiosities I think I'll have to play again once or twice to experience the other paths. Super flavorful narrative direction, I can tell there was a clear vision behind this one.
I enjoyed the premise, it gave it a good momentum going into the rest of the story. The writing was interesting, though I'm sure I missed an ending or two somewhere. The character designs were so cool! Overall great work!
