Super surreal and haunting little game that really does a great job of hitting the tone it's going for. The art is excellent. The combination of the colorful pastels with the creepy, dangerous monsters is really striking and unusual. The music was great as well. One thing that didn't work as well for me is that most of the choices are paraphrases of the same thing and have the same result (eg, "I'm not here as a messenger" and "I'm not the cloud's emissary"). I'd rather only have choices in places where there's some difference.

Why has the narrator awoken in a room with records on the walls? Is there no one to provide guidance aside from this stranger with a cloud over their face, who says, "Haven't you heard music can transport you places?"
