I love the direction, it shows some real knowledge of how to make a shot appealing and/or intriguing The story is fun but it has its creepy moments, I only played it once so I wonder if I made all the right choices and if I did things different I could've gotten a game over or if I could always reach the good ending. Overall very enjoyable! great work.

Good job on that title screen, the moon is really striking. Default sound volume is a bit high. The opening sequence with the eyes is cool. As for the script, the infodumps about the settings peppered in Runa’s dialogues are not very natural, but totally understandable considering this is a jam game. Considering you use both NVL and ADV textboxes, the descriptions the characters are unlikely to voice out could be in the NVL mode.

MyCasket, though :cry: What a name for a grocery store. I kinda expect the game to end after the charm is returned. That would be kind of eerie (also nice that it still works even after we know what the twist is…right on the title!). Minimalist, atmospheric ambience works very well here.

I’ll admit I have a bit of a mood whiplash but the “today is the 25th” joke and the sudden chibi sprites got me to laugh. Ok the stream ending is a nice one. Not what I expected but a nice one. The pan up to the moon before closing is a nice touch. I’ll see how this goes as you finetune the details!
