Interesting take on a vn. I liked the hangman-style mechanic of choosing letters to form your answers. It's a creative idea, though the overall experience felt a little slow to me. Nice concept overall!

We're really love the concept of the game! How our character are struggling to talk with somebody else is what's we've like the most part in the stories. It gave us a goosebump while playing the E's part, I counted as a surprised while playing which made me enjoyed this game very much. We can't help but wanted to see more :D Good work!

I have to say, the artwork in this game is so well done that it actually compelled me to give it a try. Personally, I really love the atmosphere. It’s unsettling and creates a sense of unease in the best possible way. Keep up the great work. It’s a fantastic game! 👏👏✨

เกมดีเลยแหละภาพคือทำให้อึดอักบวกกับเสียงอีก ส่วนตัวเกมเพลย์ผมมองว่า potential มันสูงมากถ้าเพิ่มอะไรเข้าไปอีกนิดดด ตอนที่ผมแรกตอนแรกแอบงงๆ แต่พอเข้าใจผมว่านี่เป็นหนึ่งในเกมที่สร้างสรรค์มากๆๆ สู้ต่อไปครับเป็นกำลังใจให้

ขอบคุณสำหรับคอมเมนต์ครับ 

จริง ๆ มีแผนให้เกมเพลย์มันมีลูกเล่นกว่านี้อยู่ แต่ด้วยเวลาจำกัดเลยต้องปัดทิ้งไป เดี๋ยวบัคมาปัญหาเยอะ 55

ผมก็ว่าหลาย ๆ คน น่าจะงง ๆ กับวิธีเล่นเลยเลิกไป เพราะมันขึ้นว่ามีคนเล่นไปประมาณ 10 กว่าคนละ แต่มีคน rate แค่ 2 อยู่เลย น่าจะต้องทำ tutorial ให้เคลียร์กว่านี้

might have to change wording from "make a loop" to "draw a loop" so people know that you have to use your mouse to draw a loop around characters. It took me few sec to understand that. 

And might change "spelling out the word" to "typing out the word" 

The first time I played I personally stuck when you have to use keyboard to fill the missing letter. I thought I have to keep looping random letters to find an "E" :sob:. I only found out I could type it when I watched your gameover clip on the discord

Nice suggestions. I'll add them to the description for now. 

This really goes to show just how important doing a playtesting is.

Actually the first submission that make me feel fear and uncomfortable when playing. The game atmosphere is absolutely terrifying. Creative use of the loop theme. I feel like this game has a lot of potential. If you finish polishing I think you should send it to indie horror game youtuber, for example, like, Manlybadasshero, to play.

Thank you for the comment. Glad to hear that it succeeded in being scary. The game is partly inspired by Milk inside a bag of milk inside a bag of milk which I iirc first learned about from Manly vid. It's also my first time making a dialogue-heavy game, which made me realize how difficult writing dialogue really is.
