How did this game use the theme?
There is no violence in this game. At least not a physical one. Maybe a mental one

How did this game use the tutorial? (Did you use the radio tutorial? How?)
I used the Interactable tutorial heavily, being the main mechanic used in the game as a vehicle for the story

i, that's make me almost cry at the end, because i know what it mean, and the spider is just our imaginary friend, not able to do "easy" thing like take a shower, go out, thinking you're a shit, look the past and see that your life is just only bad choice and bad things, have the impression to be alone, have sometime difficulty to sleep or sleep too much, not be strong enough to eat, This game made me think of all that, the end is really sad, but the main character have a girlfriend and that's a point who he should be happy, that's not for everyone, thanks for the game, i'm not usually righting a lot in comment section but for this one, i think it was usefull.

is gud should win

I got stuck in the room after leaving the glade,  also I was still able to open the door using the left mouse button and jump off the edge of the world.  That being said I enjoyed the experience and I see what you were going for.  Good job!

Developer

Thanks! Did the scene not change after you entered the room for the first time? Were you able to play it in its entirety?

Really nice sound design and an intriguing storyline. There were a few bugs like clipping through every wall on the drunk scene but apart from that, nice game!

Developer

This could be a really amazing project if expanded upon further. Even in such a short time I could feel the weight of the story. Good work!

Developer

Thank you River!
