I realllly loved the story! Especially the structure, I loved how everything is set up so that it feels almost like a folk-lore style storytelling -- collect items, use those items to bargain with monsters, and in the end its those items that help you reach a goal. As an aside, not sure if this is intended but I also really enjoyed how in the bad route, where you kill the monsters to take its features, it's presented as the protagonist sewing it onto themselves... which is stereotypically a very feminine/housewife associated skill, but here it's what makes you deranged and monstrous. With a really cool animation too!
I replayed a few times to get the endings, I love the different variations in what happens at the very end. And!!! The pixelart is very gorgeous and wonderful!!!!
Thank for you making this game!
