The only ding I put on it for Engagement was that I didn't feel super inclined to return to the game to try new choices out because my first ending didn't seem to be finished. I got a "Back to main menu" button when it felt like I hadn't gotten an ending for that run, therefore I wasn't sure if any of the other paths would result in the same thing. I could have just been confused or maybe just a few of the threads weren't finished because it's a jam!
I loved your writing and found it to be engaging in my first playthrough, though. The stat buffs and debuffs felt really natural and I enjoyed how they guided my choices so that I didn't get too hung up on the outcomes too much. Great job!
