Something different from everything I've tried so far! I really like both the illustrations and the mechanics. Congratulations!

This was absolutely amazing entry! The art is super great and the atmosphere is phenomenal. It made me think about what could possibly happen and redrawing pictures and changing the texts felt very personal - I think every single one of us have something from past we would want to simply remove and discard like in this game. I would definitely love to see more of this! You did amazing job!
Melancholic, unsettling, emotional.
Good storytelling, I enjoyed the experience, it definitely touched a personal note deep within me, especially when I was presented with photos from the "past" and a black marker.
Nice.
the gloomy mood of the visual made the story more interesting and deep, nice game!
This is super well made, nice job! I love having the story progress by you reaching further and further into the box. The image editing was very impressively made too I thought , (had a lot of fun drawing mustaches on everyone ha ha). Great stuff!
I loved how the story was told here - it started out with me just sort of randomly edited messages, but ended thinking about what had happened, and I love that kind of storytelling through photos and messages. Being able to actually edit and draw on the messages and pictures was a really great feature too; even if it didn't have any gameplay effect, it still managed to involve you in the story and was way more interactive than just a slideshow of images. Seeing how the messages progressed as you dug through the box was a great way of telling the story too. The artwork was really nice, and the black, white and red colour palette really helped the tone of the game. Also, the photos felt like actual photos and not just drawn pictures, which was another great addition to the feel of the game. The lack of music helps the game as well, I think, since adding some might've made it feel too heavy handed - as it is now, it gives you more space to think. This was a really unique concept, and a great experience, so keep up the good work!
Wow huge thanks for all that feedback! It's really nice to read about people's experience with the game, it teaches you a lot. Ah and also the music part, well we had someone to make the music but he dropped off the team just before the jam started, so it wasn't intended. But I'm glad you found the lack of music positive.
Very impressive! so many mechanics that are so well made, so much beautiful art and a very novel concept, following you guys on instagram! hope to see more from you! keep it up!
Super impressive experience, the artwork was really impressive, especially for such a short period of time. Great work!
Nota gonna lie, the presentation for this one is top-notch, but the gameplay loop is very counter-intuitive and mostly confusing. I think your idea was to base your game mostly on narrative and strong emotional connection with the character, but idk if this is a good approach for a jam. Let's just say that all the people that appreciate gameplay more (me included), will get a little unsatisfied and will just jump through all the tasks, but everybody who enjoys good visuals and an emphasis on narrative will have a blast with your entry.
You took the prompt in a much different direction than most other games, and I think it works. I love this sort of backward storytelling, it reminds me of If Found.... Would love to hear about future projects!
Wow! I think you can work on this story in a future project... it made me very curious, I enjoyed the vibe and the story a lot, I would love to see more!
Wow.... The arts are beautiful. And the story is so tragic...
