Ranked from 27 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

How does your game fit the theme?
I wanted to create a visual novel where you have to replay and revisit the same places and have the same conversations in a loop, over and over again, in order to get the 'true ending'. There is also a secret ending that never ends, infinitely looping in the same few conversations over and over again.

A great amount of content for a game made in such a short time. The art is on point and the "New game+" style of loop is really cool. Well done!

Bruh, this was amazing. My only gripe is that I wish there was music, but that's just me. Otherwise, I loved the take on the theme. It was so much fun.

This is the game I did the music for, feel free to check it out! https://bdblaffy.itch.io/kitty-kleaner

Thank you so much!! Funnily enough originally there was going to be music but I couldn't get the channels to work quite right so I gave up haha-- Maybe I will add it in again! I'm glad you enjoyed it, thank you for playing!

I love the art and the narrative was really good. Hopefully I didn't miss anything once I reached the infinite looping dialogue...

Developer

Once you reached the looping ending that's all the endings!! I'm glad you enjoyed the art and narrative, thank you so much! :)

Enjoyed the overall vibes of this VN! Liked how more and more options were cropping up the more times you get sent back to time, also the artwork is pretty good!

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much!! Haha yes I definitely wanted to include more options as players replayed/looped through- Thank you for playing!!

Amazing  artwork!The story feels a bit abstract or surreal, but I really enjoy the vibe you created.
