This was fantastic! I absolutely loved the game's aesthetics, and the experience kept me engaged to the very end. Excellent work! 💜
I felt personally attacked by the "I will go to therapy" line omg, that should have not been a gut punch to me.
No but, joking aside: The style is good, I really enjoyed the color palette and how it all worked together, looked great. And of course, the mirror effect, well done on that part! It was actually quite fitting that at times you could see the mirror-you left behind in the mirror, considering the storyline here, and I quite enjoyed it, made the mirrors feel uncanny. Even if on a shorter side, I think this was a nice experience, so great job guys! This could work as a longer game too, so do consider developing it further!
Loved the mirror effect - I would've liked to get a bit more insight into the story and how the mirror version got there.
i know this isn't rpg maker, but it felt very much like rpg maker horror which i always really enjoy. the sound for lighting candles was really nice. it's a little hard to track the story, there's not much of a setup suggesting the protagonist doesn't express themselves, maybe some notes or more dialogue with the mirror character before the end could help to establish things. i still liked the story that was there though. either way, a complete experience which is never a given with these jam games so really good job!
Really cool! Nice work with 2d mirror stuff, cant imagine it was too easy 😂 happy jamming!
Really nice game! The story is pretty nice as it shows how important it is to express your feelings, and if it is too late, you get trapped, and never find happiness again, and your becomes miserable. Thanks for showing how important it is to take care of our own mental health, and using a game to potray that is really nice! 10/10 game!
I made a video of your game. It's at the start of this video.
Nice creepy story. Simple gameplay but simple is good and I enjoyed all the different puzzles in the game. Very well done.
I love the visuals and the creepy environment. The pictures part took me some time to solve. I had to step in and take the photos when the doppelganger's sprites disappeared briefly.
Love the theme, design and concept! Unfortunately I could not read most of the text due to it appearing either too small or behind the darkness field. I believe the font you are using also does not allow for the use of apostrophes ( ' ) as a weird symbol appeared over the text during the end sequence with the shadow. I recommend changing fonts for the in-game text to one that is a little easier to read when small. The mirror effects were very cool and well executed!
