Thanks for playing and good thing you discovered the gamepad use early! Third part was going to be a very short (2-3 min) creepypasta visual novel with four or five endings. These were originally parts of a standalone project, which was a collection of small, experimental (and many of them stupid!) horror games where the story is linked together.
I gave it a run in an expo and although some did like them (especially Woods. Ruins wasn't much of a fan favorite, so to say) it wasn't really showing potential, so I put the project aside, and a few months later ported both of them to the browser.
I use itch as a both a graveyard for projects I haven't myself given a green light after user tests and as a kind of a testing ground if they have some potential that hasn't been seen in the initial user tests.
