Beautiful UI, and with a lot of work could be something very special! You have great and expressive sprites and I think you should lean on that strength more, rather than relying on describing them so extensively through text! Overall, though, congratulations on the release!

thank you so so much for the sweet comment and the feedback! knowing people are seeing potential in it from such a small piece of the story is really motivating me and the team to finish the project, so i deeply appreciate it <3

Damn, your UI is so good ! The intro was a great hook, and I like how the music makes the meeting scene heavy. Of course the sprite work is a hit for me too, great job :)

The artwork is beautiful, the UI design is very impressive. Loved the music. Fun story idea, I'd like to see how things go down on October 31st.
I think a bit of a bug happened for me where Alice's art disappeared for a while (between the bullying scene and just before she spoke in the meeting.)
Great work team!

thank you so much for this comment! truth be told i had written half of the story but only the first day was able to be implemented due to problems with the engine. im really glad you enjoyed the artwork, UI and music! my team wants to try finishing this game possibly for another jam in the future so the interest is greatly appreciated <3

It's a shame you had problems with the engine! We were unable to finish either and had to only do half of our game too. I wish you and your team all the best at finishing your game :)
