Cool game, the art was cute and the music was nice, I really enjoyed the kidnap scene, a bit silly but that added to the charm that made me want to see it again.
It was an interesting story, like someone else mentioned it would be nice to be able to try to convince your wife to stay home.
Not a big problem, but going back required quite a few clicks to change locations, maybe having a clickable arrow so you don't have to click change location and then select one (it probably makes the game look a bit worse, but it makes it play a bit better).
Thank you so much for the kind words and helpful advice, We'll make sure to keep that in mind going forward! ♥

I love this game so much! I could feel his despair from the loop of seeing her die every time. The art is so cozy and cute! I was super unsettled by the eyes so it really added to it. The voices were also so good I adored them! I had a lovely time :)
Thank you so much for your kind words and for playing!! < 3 we’re so glad you enjoyed it!

This was a wonderful and eerie submission that left me curious for more. The artstyle is very cute, except for the Eyes obviously which were a creepy and dramatic style change that were great at making me feel like they were some otherworldly being. I enjoyed the cozy intro that lulls you into a sense of security before things suddenly intensify. Loved the music, it was really enjoyable to listen to and set the tone really well. UI design was also lovely.
Great job team! I'd love to see this fleshed out further :)
Spoiler things I'd love to see if you do any future updates:
What's Jules history with that step-brother and the church?
What's that demon guys deal? Why is he targeting Jules?
Who are the Eyes??
What did Jules turn into?
What does the demon guy do to Jules once Adelaide passes!?!?!
So many great mysteries have been teased :)
Thank you so much for your kind words and for your support! We are so grateful for the interest in our universe we’ve created. <3

I loved the art a lot and the point-and-click portions! I felt like there could have been a little more build up narratively to the finale & thought that it would have been nice to have a scene where Jules really tries to convince Adelaide to stay inside and not go on the walk (since I felt like this would be the best choice to protect her)-- even if it results in her still going on the walk, I'd feel more satisfied with the idea that he really really tried to convince her. This was a lovely game experience !! I want to see more!! :D
We really appreciate the feedback and support, Thank you so much!!

Very cute artstyle, dialogue is fluid and i'm very fond of the music ! I love time loops so this is an instant like, the voice lines aren't my cup of tea tho. Hope to learn more about the story of our little "sacrificial lamb" in the future :D
Thank you so much for your feedback! We’re very happy to hear you liked the game and appreciate your support!! Also, If you ever decide to replay it, you can disable voice lines in the preferences menu. :)

cute!!!
thank you very much!!
Played it through and it was pretty cool! The story was tight, the initial point and click segment added to the comfy vibe that immediately gets shattered when the turning point happens. And the point happens FAST
spoilers:
Also, I love timeloop games, and there's like some big big potential for future stories for Jules
