ahahahhahahha
what a strange piece of art house we've got here

had a lot of fun reading through it

Developer

Hahah, thanks so much!

I don't know what to do in the game, but the art looks amazing and the idea is great!

Developer

Haha thank you!

Was hoping you could actually build the road instead of just being a Visual novel, but the dialogue was rather cute.

Developer

Thanks! And same here lol....I wanted to have more of a building mechanic if I had the time, but I had to keep it ultra-simple. You actually DO build a new section of road during a working section, but the camera cuts away quickly enough that you don't notice. That's definitely gonna be something I tweak before I reupload. Thanks for playing!

The music is an absolute banger and I love the artstyle and story/idea - but is there an end to the game? The dialogue just loops and except for pressing x, u and escape there is nothing I can do that I know of

And just a small tip: if you can, make webgl builds, far more people are willing to play your game if it is playable in the browser. Your game definetely deserves more recognition!

Developer

Yes, and thank you! I hadn't done a WebGL build before, so I was worried about running into a bug when I was rushing to submit. So I didn't make one, but now I'm regretting it. After the voting period is up, I'm definitely gonna make some tweaks to the game and reupload it as a WebGL!

Developer

Thanks!! And haha, not really...the idea was that these people are stuck in this endless cycle, so everything would just repeat. But I didn't have the time to make it clearer to the player lol. So you saw all of it!
