This was really immersive, with a good story, told with just the right level of detail. The interactivity felt like it added interest for repeat playing – one or two properly branching paths would've been good, but probably would've taken too long given the time limit. Some of the “bad ends” were funny. The illustrations and formatting added to experience without being obtrusive.
A unique, well-paced take on body horror. Well done!
I enjoyed it - the audio provided a desolate, empty atmosphere and the story was just long enough to get engaging and just short enough to not get too boring. The artwork was also minimalist but nice - enough to establish everything there.

The commander punched me to death :c
This was a short but chilling experience, it felt kind of like the prequel to a longer Thing or Alien type of narrative. It was well done, you managed to evoke emotion and give the characters personality within a few lines. And I appreciated the hand-drawn imagery. I do wish you'd made them the background and displayed the text on top, rather than having to scroll down past the text to see the pictures.
