I dig the aesthetic and the way you approached the theme. It's playful and engaging, good job!

I'm not quite sure if not following the story is another way to follow the story... I was tricked by a misterious man who WAS part of the story, so I don't know what's real anymore. xD

Pretty awesome presentation. Some "The Stanley Parable" vibes here definitely.

Developer

Thanks! Glad you liked it! There is not really any right way to complete the game. There are a couple different endings.

Yep definitely got some strong Stanley Parable vibes from this. Pretty solid writing. Loved the presentation as well - down to the little touches like the text box shaking more as the narrator gets more agitated. Good stuff!

Developer

Thank you!

Great game, i don't have anything to say that hasn't already been said (skip dialogs, speed, (i understand it's for the slow pace of the game but it become boring when you want to have the 5 endings), there's a typo at "suposed to be" when you jump in the pit with the box)

it directly reminded me of Stanley Parable, but it seems that you expected the player to not follow the story (what i obviously did). In the other games (Stanley P, There is no game,...) you're rewarded for not following the story, but not here, it's the bad ending. So it was kinda subversive. Did i get it ?

Developer

Thanks for the great feedback! Yes, you more or less got it. Thanks for writing such a well though out comment!

Great game! I enjoyed it a lot! As someone mentioned, it would be great, if you could skip dialog or being able to click through it faster (and also, there's a *your*/*you're* typo at the end).

Thanks!

Loved the art and the story. Are those horns on the mysterious man?

Developer

Thank you! Yes, they are horns.

Reminded me a lot of Stanley Parable, in a good way! Great presentation, and applies to the theme very well.

Developer

Thank you!

This is actually a really creative way to implement the theme and the presentation is really solid. The only gripe I have with the game is that there is no way to speed up the text (which can be kind of long).

Developer

Thanks! Yeah I probably would have implemented that if I had more time.

Hey, this turned out great! It was a lot of dialog to get through but I like how you subverted my expectation. The narrative was well written and very witty. The art style was cool and spooky too. Nice job on this!

Developer

Thank you!

This is amazing! The story is great and fits the theme amazingly! I was sad that there wasn't more  of it (which I understand as there wasn't much time). The only thing I would recommend is that you gave the ability to skip dialoges, because sometimes it is a bit annoying to have to wait. Overall I loved this! 5/5!

Developer

Thanks!

Don't ever do what the narrator says

I don't know if I went through all of the paths/endings etc but I hope not, because it was too awesome to miss it. Who is the bad one?;)

Presentation is top, humor is great, and the theme interpretation is cool also. Great work!

Developer

Thank you so much! I am glad you enjoyed it. I guess you will have to figure out who the bad one is :)

That was cool ! I really like that kind of simple pixel art, It works really well !  

Developer

Thanks!
