Really beautiful game, I wish you could expand upon it! the only downside is that it feels a bit of a stretch for this game jam, but other than that it was really solid!

Absolutely amazing! I loved this! The story was scary and sad, the art was awesome, the gameplay was super creative (especially for rpg maker) and it all just came together so well. The idea of "Dream Agents" and the whole dream machine thing was fascinating. The music and sounds were very well made and created this creepy, yet nostalgic atmosphere. Very chilling. I actually think the tiny window fit the game surprisingly well and kinda made even more unique. Stunning job. Nice work!

Best game I played in the jam so far, the story hits right in the feels. Music is wonderful, the story short but immersive. I love it. 

I always tell people that  video games if done right are better storytelling mediums that movies and series, this is a great example of what can be done in a week. Super impressive mate

Awesome game, but there's a big problem—the story isn't connected. However, it has a good emotional side. I think this should be continued as a much bigger project.

How is the story not connected?

I don’t know if it’s just me, but I don’t really see how the story connects all the scenes into one linear narrative. Sometimes, it made me feel like the scenes were just randomly put together

It's just been you so far.

1. Beginning explains why you are there and who you are and what you will experience.

2. The left and right side of the house are two corrupted memories like it said you could encounter in the beginning with the white memories afterwards being more story lore. 

3. The last part with the mother ties everything together with what she talks about and then the twist in the end makes the story even more connected.

Seems connected to me unless you didn't read the text in each scene.

Thanks

A great game where you can get scared and sad. However, it is weakly connected to the jam theme.

I LOVED IT. Sweet little experience and it feels crafted for that little resolution, some of the visual effects and decisions like the FORWARD / BACKWARD segments blew my mind seeing them in an RPG Maker game.

Also a true indie Game [SPOILERS]

I really liked this! The dog part genuinely freaked me out, you have a good ear for... scary sounds.
