The voice acting is really good, and very impressive for the short timeframe you had. I particularly liked the use of sound for memory puzzles.

This is what Borderlands 3 should have been 10 Stars
Okay so really quick, want to praise the writing on the host. Taking the V-tuber concept and applying it to horror can be done so many ways, but this absolutely nails it. ( As mentioned, 2k tried to do something similar with their villains in Borderlands 3, and this knocks it outta the water )
That feeling of isolation, of being alone with the host as he watches and constantly commentates. Mixing isolation and this almost crippling sense of paranoia as you realize just how many people might be watching you makes all the other horror elements pop like a fishes eyeball.
Mix that with the audio design, stellar visuals and strategic use of darkness and realistic dialouge. It's easily top 3 of this Jam and deserves as much love as you can give it.
omg i loved this. having the protagonist's inability to see integrated to the gameplay and narrative like this is clever, and not being able to see also brought another layer to the horror elements in the story. the writing did exactly what it meant to do, and the sound design and voice acting were superb - the voice matched the stereotypical twitch streamer voice and tone perfectly. this nailed the satirical horror genre super well, i had a lot of fun :)
This is the first game in my list of the entries to rate, that clearly reflects the topic of the jam. The dark and horor narrative is well exucuted; for me personally some parts of the gameplay were confusing, for example: navigating in the maze and a string of choises in the middle, I was a bit lost and needed some clues to guide me.
