I thought this was an interesting game to play! It reminded vaguely of 999 in it's over-the-top-ness, but in a good way. Seems like an interesting engine as well! I hadn't heard of it, but it looks like it can make some interesting results. I think the branching story and different outcomes is a cool concept. The main critique I have is that the sound in the game didn't play, which I think would have really added to the experience.
