Thank you so much for playing and streaming the game! We genuinely loved watching your playthrough and hearing your thoughts on Evelyn. ❤️

Just a small note on the masks: they aren't really meant to be separate identities, but different, often contradictory emotions that Evelyn was feeling at the same time after the accident. Anger, fear, resentment, guilt, denial, and even the need to defend herself can all exist in the same person at once. She herself can't fully decide what she meant, what she felt, or whether she was acting intentionally or not.

That uncertainty is really at the heart of the story. We wanted to explore how difficult it is to judge someone who can never be reduced to just one feeling or one action, and how even we sometimes struggle to understand what is truly inside ourselves.

Thank you again for taking the time to play it and think so deeply about it. We really enjoyed your stream! ❤️

Thank you so much! ❤️ And yeah, that actually lines up really well with how I ended up interpreting it while playing.

At first I thought the masks were going to be different people or separate identities, but once I started seeing Evelyn herself wearing them, it became pretty clear to me that they were different parts of what she was feeling.

I think where I was getting a little hung up was trying to figure out what each color specifically represented, like whether red was anger, blue was sadness, etc., when it sounds like the point is a little messier than that, with all of those emotions overlapping and contradicting each other at the same time.

I really liked that uncertainty though. It made Evelyn feel a lot more human, and it definitely left me thinking about her after the game was over.

Thanks again for making it and for watching the playthrough! ❤️
