Nice immersive little story, feels a little bit creepy as well. As other have pointed out the fonts was a little bit difficult to read but overall, a really solid entry!! :D

The feel and the looks are really there!
Only thing maybe the UI needs a bit of work.

Great experience nonetheless.

This was an amazing game jam entry, The text was pretty hard to read for my on my 1920 x 1080 monitor. Everything else was great, unique, and creative. I love all the little dialogs, your writing for this game was funny and creative.

We may have gone a bit overboard with "Create everything from scratch" during the jam, so I created my own font.. which came out.. well

Haha, thats great. If ever there was a good reason to have hard to read font in a game this is it. Made from scratch during a 58 hr game jam. Much respect for that!
