the audio was awesome, truly an experience

however, i couldnt help but want an accurate picture of the whole map, as well as some more hints

i could not manage to find a way to open the trap door, nor find my cat and feed them

but compared to most text adventures, i didnt get stuck in the "get ye flask" moments besides when i ran out of places to check for a key or a cat

Thanks for playing! By the river is a good place to ponder your next move ;)

There’s some discussion on the puzzles in the day 10 dev log as well as (spoilers) a puzzle dependency chart that shows everything you have to do to reach the end.

Your comment brings up a little easter egg. In this game you can in fact TAKE YE CAT. (Or, for example, OPEN YE TRAPDOOR or TURN ON YE RADIO or QUIT YE GAME.)

I’ve not played a lot of text adventures, do they all use sound this well? Very enjoyable!

I’m sure it’s been done before but sound is typically not used in text adventures. That was our idea for a twist on the classic version. Thanks for playing :)

I managed to fairly easily install Love on Linux here and am enjoying the game. A lot of craftsmanship in the audio and storytelling. Enjoying it very much!
