A very touching story about real life horrors, told with minimal interactivity. I played through twice to see the different choices.

Thanks so much!

A sublime piece, deeply saddening.

Beautiful and human and very sad.

Strong emotional beats in this one. Nicely done, especially in under 4 hours.

I’m having trouble playing it a second time, as the itch page just loads it at the end and I can’t use an incognito window. Not sure if that is something you can fix or not.

Thanks so much!

And yeah, I got so wrapped up in writing the game that I forgot to include a restart button...oops! I was able to open it in an incognito window in Chrome yesterday but I'll play around with the itch settings to see if I can make that easier to do. Lesson learned for next time!

It is an easy thing to forget! Chrome is giving me a “no valid storage adapters found” error when I try to open it in an incognito window but that could just be some weird issue with my browser.

ETA I am now almost certain it is a problem with my browser. It’s doing this for other things, too!

Nope, I had a friend replicate it too! It seems to be an issue with how itch handles cookies in incognito mode.

If you go to your Chrome settings under "cookies" and check the option that says "Enable all cookies", which should be the first option on the list, you should be able to open the game in incognito mode. Let me know if that works!

Third-party cookies, yikes! I have turned it on and can confirm it works to play this game in incognito mode, but would highly recommend turning those third-party cookies back off again after if anyone else takes this approach!
