Your storytelling skills are incredibly strong. I didn't need visuals at all to feel anxious and to become aware of situation we were in! It was so narrative just having a visual of the brain splayed out and exposed with the sudden appearance of the parasite and audio was enough to build scenes in my head! I felt so upset when I knew I gave the parasite exactly what it wanted when I met with my pack, more hosts, an opportunity to spread that I just had to play again to prevent it from happening!! While yes, I was saddened to be killed by the hunter but can't help but feel this was the best-case scenario especially in a body that we would no longer have autonomy over when given the time! I really really loved your mechanics! They were so unique!! The rolling of dice to determine the next course of action and its success was genius! My only critique is that I was little confused on how getting more holes in certain sections benefitted us as I noticed it raised stats for that certain skill. Did it increase our percentage of success and I didn't catch on? Regardless, it didn't affect the experience of the gameplay at all just something to get clarification on! Just like any roguelite you just need to keep replaying till you just get the formula!! Which you accomplished greatly!! Incredible entry!! I'm so glad to have had a chance to play it!! This is 100% one of my top 3!
