I agree with most of the comments here. This is a nice little story. The game is well executed with a musical score and effects that set the right mood. It also feels like a complete game. Some of the other game jam games I've played have been impressive, but impress in one or two categories and just feel unfinished. This one actually feels like it is the whole package. Great job!

Thank you very much~ :DD

My goodness! this was such a cute little game! It was very well crafted. I have a soft spot for games that have horror themes but put a cute spin on them. It fits perfectly with not only the main theme of the jam but as well as the second theme. Hats off to you! I can't wait to see more games by you!

Holy smokes this game. I'm blown away, it was so good. It made me feel something. Great story. Tragic but tender. Excellent use of the B&W theme. Solid sound choices throughout the whole game. Great pick of music. Many subtle mechanics in play to make for an immersive story. I can tell a lot of heart and a lot of work went into this game.

PS... do I recognize Rainyhearts as the font? I may or may not have used it in a past game of my own :P

Great polish on the controls and menus. It's a fun adventure. I couldn't tell visually that you can move to the right and left from inside the house. Found one by accident then assumed the other. I like story element. It's a fun adventure! Nice job.

Developer

Thanks~ :3

I really like the art and the little effects here and there, like the dizzy moment and the little icons above interactable stuff. The story is good too, the only criticism that I would have is that I felt the conclusion too obvious so in a moment I was like just waiting for the game to tell me "ye what you thinking yes" but good game <3

This was very very good and quite sad. I liked it a lot. I got a little confused at the beginning because I didn't realize I could go left and right from the main foyer.

That's a criticism I got from the playtesters as well but I couldn't think of a short way to fix it in time~ ;'> But thank you for the comments~!
