Great writing. It invokes the uncanny and surprises at the end.

Interesting and well written story. I also liked the sort of wiki like setup of it all where you can use links to hop around.

I liked the idea of a short story like that! I really like the writing, this is something that I read without being tired, this is interesting although most of the literature is not so enticing for me. Yours is a great masterpiece I think. Thank you for this little story, it is easy and creates a great experience!

"The moon blinks." simple and uncanny. Love that.

My only suggestion is to update the itch page's background theme color to something darker. The white drew my focus away from the story window.

Great short story!

I just finished your game. I must say I'm in awe! Your ability to write is really something out of this world, I was gripped along the journey of this small story :).

I feel that this is a pretty contained little game, and it achieves everything it tries to do!

To make the game more dynamic, you could add some sound effects for each scene. For instance, the sound of birds, the leaves and wind, or a very light breeze at the moon scene. You could also add some sound effects when turning the page. However, this is more me being nitpicky than anything else :).

Honestly, this game is really fun and I enjoyed your writing a lot :).
