Awesome aesthetic and good writing. I admire the fog of war system, really adds to claustrophobic atmosphere.

Developer

Thank you for checking it out! I’m glad you enjoyed it. :)

Really engaging. I actually got a lil fright from the sudden mood change after walking back into rue's room LOL, but definitely loved it at the same time you have the suspense aspect down for sure. Can't wait to see the final game. 

Developer

Thank you! I appreciate that you got a fright with the color switch, because that was absolutely what I was going for. :D

Love the narrative developed by the game and the little change in color of the sprites to let the player know they will give story information and be interactable.

Developer

Thank you!

Does the current version end after you meet the memory or sister character? Couldn't figure out what to do to leave the window scene.

Hi, the current version ends after the window scene. There is an exit near the door, after you reappear in the bedroom.
