You can’t tell me this isn’t one of the best horror games on itch. Plus it’s (secretly, kinda,) about one of my favourite topics. I love it when the plot goes round and round. I did take a couple dollars off of my donation because of the AI, though (I say this as a person who hacks AI for my job, and as someone who’s made a VN before as a private project, like… a decade ago. I kinda understand why you used it, but I really hope you don’t feel the need to next time </soapbox>), and there are a few typos that I noticed, but nothing game stopping. For a first game, (I was shocked to read that btw) this is really good! I also found myself with 10/10 and then saw Distrust and thought ‘oh man, I was wondering about that’ so that was really cool!
I hope you write more, either in VN form or if you just want to write some stories, and I would play more games of yours for sure.
