I made a video of your game! It's at the 16:41 mark of this video.
I wanted to make a video of your game during the rating period, but I could not find a way to get an A+ rating until after the jam was over.
Well I guess all the comments have already said a lot, so I wont be commenting much
If procrastination were a game, this would be it. I also appreciate how the game raises awareness about substance abuse, although I'm wondering how the player can drink an infinite amount of coffee without collapsing lol.
Overall, one of the best game here, the artstyle is genuinely stunning
Amazing art and atmosphere, the gameplay is also really good, this is also the first game I've played to almost discover I am a giant rodent. Amazing job!
Very unique, both in idea and visuals. And it seems like there is a lot to discover in the game :D
Absolutely beautiful art! I managed to get 16/21 and had a heart attack. At one point, I think I encountered a bug where I pressed the take a break button, the character said, "Yeah, I need to take a break," but nothing happened. Or maybe I just didn't understand something. Other than that, this is an incredible game!
AMAZING ART STYLE GAMEPLAY IS AMAZING THE GAME WAS SOO GOOD
To start, the art for this game is AMAZING!!! Such a unique style, absolutely loved it! The gameplay being tied in with exploring was a great gameplay loop. Everything changing and being different based on your stats, in my opinion, is what made it so fun to play! I have attempted to beat it three times now and have been unsuccessful, but you bet your biscuits I will beat it. My favorite part though, BIRD.
What you've managed to create here is incredible, the style is fantastic, the horror moments uncanny, and the combination of balancing stats while also watching all your stat balancers get corrupted by working too long on your essay is fantastic. I'll have to play a few more times to get more achievements, but you all made something amazing here!
This essay literally killed me (one of three times). I had a great time with this and definitely want to go for all the endings! I also was genuinely concerned by the heartbeats, as well as the creepy art bits. Great job! The art style was creative and immersive, really sold the noir, and the control scheme was equal parts intuitive.
This was very cool I liked it a lot :), I did manage to get a C probably could get better but I wanted to check out the other endings. I really resonated with the premise being a former engineering student lol. The heart rate stuff kinda spooked me, same for when the stair way became an endless pit and I couldn't back out. Very nice and to the point.

Thank you so much for sharing your playthrough with us! I had a great time watching it and your reaction to the stairs gave me a laugh
And you brought up an interesting point with the grades at the beginning. Our team is based in Poland and we're used to a slightly different grading scale. For this we decided to go with a simple F - fail, D - A - pass just to make the game understandable for the broader audience.
There's still a lot of stuff you haven't seen so if you ever feel like playing again you'd still have new things to surprise you :)
We're glad to hear that you enjoyed our game!
10/10 art style and as a former student writing a lot of scientific papers, I got elevated back to the dread of writing deadlines! I "died" quite a lot as I couldn't foretell if the next writing step would deplete one of the bars completely, maybe that's also the challenge to not go too far. Anyway I enjoy it a lot and will try to get all achievements. Long neck pigeon got me intrigued!
Love the artstyle and how colours are used to depict the moods! This is so unqiue imo!!
Very good game. The visual style is excellent. I especially appreciate how you managed to integrate the horror elements. There are many interesting interactions that you only notice on subsequent playthroughs.
This is really charming and a very fun concept. I love the art style a lot! I did have a tough time noticing the UI for navigating to different rooms, and it wasn't immediately clear that I needed to click on the icon on the screen in order to do a writing minigame. Other than that, really well done and I love how many different things you can try.
This is really good! There's a lot of little interactions and changes depending on the MC's psyche, it's very well thought through. The art is amazing. This is one of the better games here for sure
I immediately went to doomscroll for 12 hours. Which is something I also do in real life so it's very relatable
I feel like I've had a couple episodes like this back in uni lol
