I love this. The location and its features are surreal, it's mysterious, there's a mario pipe and trees in space, its apparently available in VR? It's just so interesting. I love your approach to "only one", and I really enjoyed the ending, a lot of games in this jam don't have an ending at all, but Only One NPC gave the feeling of a short, sweet, full experience.  Edit: You say there isn't an ending, but I interpretted "lets be friends" as the ending, a great ending, if you ask me.

Thank you for the comment, it made me happy 😊 The friend ending was indeed supposed to be  an ending (in addition to some other more sinister ones.) I wanted to go a lot deeper with the game systems, but there was not enough time. This version of the game is mostly a result of last minute scramble to get something playable. 🙀

nice voice acting. The design of the NPC was quirky and lovely to see.

Salutes from one Unreal developer to another! The game had a relaxing atmosphere and the voice acting was pretty good! I loved the environment!

A nice prototype, but the options for interaction just expand, with eventually nowhere else to go. It doesn't appear that initial choices affect end ones, and it is hard to see the end (if any) of this.

Yea my plan was to do something a little bit different with the dialogue system, but I had to scope down to get it finished in time. There really isn't an ending
