Wonderful! It matches the description and meets my overall expectations. The voice acting was brilliant, although there were some oddities with the volume at times, perhaps due to my lack of understanding of the perspective. I've never particularly enjoyed game music in general. The cinematography was as expected, with some variation in the slight sanity mechanic, as well as the clicker being surrounded by light in the darkness. The "good ending" animatic was brilliant! It was a simple but fairly well-executed game concept.

Thank you so much for the comment and for playing! Unity was being a pain with the volume, so there were inconsistencies that we spent weeks trying to fix before finally leaving it at the current version. We had so many ideas for this game, but with the short time frame we had to cut back a lot unfortunately. I'm so glad you enjoyed it, though!!

I've been excited for this one ever since hearing Winchester Mystery House in the premise way back in August--love the visual references, the creative warp and weft of fact and fiction, the genuinely creepy scenario, and the lovely voice work. Well done to the whole team! ✨

This was a 5/5, no notes. It was incredibly professional and well-done. The voice acting was great, the art was charming and really creative, and the story and style all worked together so well!
