Cool to have some body horror in a game with this art stye, it leaves some of it to the imagination at the end there.  Good bunch of lore and  really pretty art!

Really interesting game! The atmosphere was very immersive and I really appreciated the art style. Also, you could really feel that the ending you get is the result of the main character's states of mind which, in turn, get influenced by your choices.
