Really enjoyed the authorial voice in this, and some great descriptions of environments and events. The choices you were given were interesting, and I played it through several times to make sure I got to try everything.

My only real gripes are that most of the decisions, while interesting, didn't have too much of an effect on the final outcome of the story.

Thank you for the feedback. In hindsight, I am wondering if I didn't just want to write a short story instead of a game! Also, I finally uploaded the version of the game that doesn't have the ending bugged out.

Yeah, it makes a lot more sense with the fixed ending(s)!
I guess this style of narrative game is sort of like writing several short stories at the same time. It's just a different mindset you have to adopt going in (although there are swathes of games that adopt a more typical linear approach, and are still hugely popular)
