First of all, congrats from a fellow Bitsy-maker for making the only Bitsy game for this game jam!

Second, the spritework is amazing! I also admire the creative use of 'close-ups' and room montage. I enjoyed putting the story together through this jigsaw-like narrative, which is quite an achievement.

Third, I liked the story about the artist making herself into an art object; the notion is something horrifying and sublime at the same time. I'm not sure about the twist that story pulls off, though, when at first the narrative suggests that the killing was an act of misogynistic violence, and then reframes it to be the woman's desire. I'm not quite sure how to put it, but it just feels inappropriate due to how these situations typically unfold in reality.

But this is my only nitpick, otherwise I think the game is excellent! Thank you for creating it and sharing it with us.

Exceptional, a must-play game in the jam

A real master-class in story-telling Manages to say a lot with very little – both words and technical features. Loved the re-framing of the “Don’t force my hand” dialogue.

I’ve messed around with bitly enough to know its limitations and it’s impressive what you’ve created within them. I’m pretty sure it can do sound/music, right?

This is so unique, so impressive how much you can tell with this few pixels. Beautiful pixel art, great storytelling. I wish there was some audio, but excellent either way. Loved this, congrats <3

Excellent pico-8 horror. Loved how little you needed to make every scene transition unnerving, and the story haunting. The "finish the masterpiece" ending is something to be proud of. This is a genuine chunk of gothic horror. Great job.
