The music throughout the game was great! The story was interesting and kept me engaged in trying to figure out what was really going on in the world. I definitely had to redo Gus several times to get to that 4th (true?) ending though lol. I did have some bug/issues, but I think they were all mentioned by other users already. Good work!

I“m really glad you like the music!!! u just make my day better :)
The story was excellent written by A. Villaroel (The Sloth), and refined by Karla Arrieta (@karrsiopeia) the bests!
Also always is space for more but in this short period of time we do our best, thanks for all your kind words! And congrat for wining the Jam!!!
Echoing the rest of the comments but the VFX and overall style really make the game stand out! Great little story and I enjoyed learning about the characters throughout their individual scenes! :D
And Dusk is definitely a nice owl :'>>>
I trust my feathery friend
Every time we read about the work of the team makes us so happy and knowing you like it makes us even more excited!
Its really amazing that we can talk about the games and give feedback, love here :3 and that Dusk! What can even tell you? He is the star (but not forget our guy āGusā)
I think if we give some interview Dusk should appear and be like:
Reporter.- Tell me Mr Dusk, what are the plans for the future?
Dusk.- Screech!
Reporter.- Well, you heard it first on BioNews!
Very stylish, love the look of feel of the game. Liked all the foreshadowing and want to see more of all these characters. Especially if Dusk is gonna turn out cool like that.
Cute owl is cute!
You put al lot of work into the visuals! The animations worked really great! I ended up just blaming Mirella to save my own skin. Didn't feel bad for her at all. Didn't expect her to end up at the literal stake but hey at least it wasn't me!
Of course as a Unity game (and you probably did not use Naninovel?) some accessibility options are missing. Especially an option for instant text speed would have been nice. Also, some kind of backlog would have been key especially in such a mystery setting where you can easily miss a clue. But I understand these features take time to implement.
Thank you for making this game! I had fun!
Those are great ideas! We try to make it the best posible in the time limit we have :') We worked since day 1 to bring the story to life from pre production, to post production, it was savage! jajaja
Thank you a lot for playing our game, we are very glad you enjoy playing it! if u make ur second run of the game maybe this time you can try not to accuse Mirella? ;)
Have a wonderful day!
Great game! Everything really meshed well together to create a superb immersive experience. It definitely shows the power of creating visual novels in other engines! Awesome job.
Great entry with great art, music, vfx, and story all around! And the character were very interesting, really makes me wish the game was longer haha
I have one bug to report: After finishing my first playthrough I wanted to start a new save but it didn't work right, Jessie's sprite didn't display correctly and I had no other choice but to confront the town immediately. It was fine after I refreshed the page (browser version, chrome, windows)
And lastly I especially liked the art for Dusk in the ending :> (cute innocent owl emote)
I really liked this story! Also I have to say:
- My eyes were definitely caught by the VFX
- The original art was very cool!
- I was captivated by the music!
I really liked the way you build up information as you talk to people (or not talk to people) which affects what you know at the end. Great job!
We are so thankful for you taking the time and playing our game! our game designer fell so heartwarming about your words. Also our VFXs artist was like: look!, they like the VFXs!!!. I can“t tell u how much your words help us feel good with all the hard work.
In the name of Savage Kitties, Thank you!
A really well-crafted short story, with great use of vfx! The character design and background art complement each other rally well with their angular lighting and and shapes, and the large blocks of shadows pull everything together. Definitely leaves you curious for more! Great job!!
