This... is... amazing! Absolutely love the art style :) Great choice of color palette. The narrative is  backed up by solid writing skills. I'm jealous!

Aww, thank you! That means a lot - this is my first kinetic visual novel I've ever made so I'm glad people are enjoying it. And you shouldn't be jealous, you've also got great writing chops! :))

Great job! Very atmospheric, really liked how the player gets drawn into the world immediately. Visual and sound design fit the mood, and I loved the writing. Giving the player suggestions where to go next felt good to me, I like to be told what to do to advance the story :) Not too sure about the choices - they enliven the dialog, but are there consequences? Oh, and the "quit" button opened the gallery instead.

Thank you! I really appreciate the feedback - and just in answer to your question, yes. The choices made impact the ultimate "ending" you receive (there are multiple) and some choices open side plots/storylines, while others close them.
