Yo, what?

This is the only entry of the jam that kept me engaged closer to 100% of its duration so far. I loved the free narration that you can explore on the internet: the interface was really surprisingly responsive and immersive, and the small puzzles you had to solve in a meta ambient of the desktop. And the yume nikky gameplay was integrated in a very smart way.
I'm not really a fan of yume nikki-like games, since they make zero to no sense at first glance for the player (and so it's just confusing), but here I can easily get over it given the context behind it, so I experienced it in a different perspective (which is good).

You played a dangerous game (and literally so did the protagonist XD), since cryptic games risk to not be enjoyed if the player doesn't get anything at all, but here I feel like there was a good amount of information to let the player at least try to figure out and understand something on their own.
I don't have anything negative to say about it, maybe the only thing was that navigating the digital hub (the first in the game) was not super-clear, I would have appreciated more reference points to not get lost every time. And the save option in the game working differently was a little unnecessary and unintuitive.

So far, this is definitely my favorite game of the jam, congratulations! I would definitely love playing a longer version of this!
Here's the VOD: 

Oh, sorry. Someone is knocking on my door. I'll continue the review later-

Thank you again for playing the game on stream and all the positive feedback! 😊 As someone who usually puts very straight forward dialogue in his games I  had a hard time holding back and letting the game speak for itself, but I'm glad it paid out! I definitely agree that the navigation and transitions in the actual game could have been better, hopefully I can remedy that in a future release :-) but weird, now that you mention it, someone is knocking on my door too, brb
