Short and sweet! I like all the HUD stuff like the chat box, quest log, and player details. The custom character art is also super cute. The way the dialogue was written felt very authentic to me. I could totally see that kind of banter happening in a real online game's chat. It's a really cool idea to make a fake MMO like this. One time I had a similar idea where you would switch between the "real life" character and the avatar in the game, but I think your game turned out much better than that one would've. Having the game end at a set time was a nice touch, too. The server disconnecting without any input from the player feels perfect. Very well done, IDOLL_Dev. 👍

This was surprisingly shorter than what I would have hoped. I wanted to see more! It was very sad and I can relate due to the numerous games I have played that shut down. It would be interesting to see you make a EOH game story that takes place before the shut down. I'm curious as to what kind of story and gameplay was available if this were a real game. Good job!

Thank you! I agree that it was short - sorry to disappoint.

And yes, I would love more EOH games in the future! I'm glad I still got to say a lot of what I wanted to say with this game, even if it was short.

It makes me really happy that it was relatable, although I'm sorry to hear you had to deal with games shutting down... it's always kinda sad.
