Ranked from 2 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

How did you choose to implement the Theme: Alien Infiltration in your game?
There is a special character in the game that disguises itself as the main character and creates attacks. The game also has a fearsome non-human race that takes over human bodies, and 60% of the game's suspense elements (the storyline has not yet unfolded, but the demo version contains a lot of hints).

Did you implement any of the optional Bonus Challenges, and if so, which ones?
1 and 2.

Did not expect a visual novel to show up in this horror jam but I was suprised! First off, I really like the visuals, the use of colder colors really gives a more desolate vibes to the environment, with the bar being one of the only environment with lighter colors!

I also really like the UI, the use of animations and colors makes it easy to spot important information in the text, so I know what to look for and remember as important.

I am not sure about the Happy End system however, might be that I am not the biggest VN fan, but I feel that having a randomized system linked to the choice might hurt replayability. I imagine missing a roll multiple times in a row and being blocked from an ending could be frustating to some.

Otherwise, keep it up! I really enjoyed what I saw here!

I really appreciate your detailed comments! Gave me some encouragement and some ideas at the same time!

I'm so glad you noticed my art efforts! And some new attempts on the system.

The design of the dice rolling system was based on some clever ideas I had, but no further thought was given to the player experience. I am very sorry about this and will try to improve!

Finally, Thank you for your play ❥(^_-) I will continue to work hard, thank you!
