Very refreshing type of game. Not seen many (if any) of these. Those keywords were a nice way to branch a story. Nice art style. Some atmospheric music/sounds would make this even better.

Yeah, that was the plan but ran out of time.  You can definitely see where the sounds would have been.  Maybe I'll add them after voting ends.

I was sad when it stopped rhyming hehe.  Visual novel style is cool!  Did you do the art? It was nice~

Sadly, no - I lack art skill.  Originally there was more rhyming, but it really didn't fit the rest of the game, so it got cut.

I enjoyed this -- the narrative + pictures were a nice combination.

Ran out of time to add the sound

Very nice writing, I think a little sound would have added a lot to this. I like the way choices are just words in the narrative, haven't seen that before

Yeah - I was jamming while the rest of the family was sleeping, so left the sound for last.  Ran out of time, but will probably add it later.  You can tell from the descriptions the original design was primed for sound.
