Super interesting concept! The choices were impactful but I felt  like I was being experimented on -- very eerie and unsettling. Nice work!

The atmosphere is great, I think the sound design also helps with the feeling; when the generator thing shuts off and it gets quiet it gives a sense of urgency

I really liked how random you kept it. I think it was a very good concept, well executed: the mannequins, the music, and the loop. Great job.

I love my tardis style sub place closet where  I keep my backup entity caged. Need one in real life too. Really good game

This game looks amazing. Congratulations! I really enjoyed the feel and the visuals. I'd love some different endings, although I think it works from the philosophical point of view.

I really enjoyed the atmosphere of this game, really impressed with how you made the whole lighthouse out of cubes.

This was super cool. I love the different endings and the way the musical theme changed as the world decayed.

Fun concept, I got 3/8 endings, didn't realize there were a hints if I read somewhere. heh

I like it! Melancholic decaying world harbouring a dark secret to maintain itself. Pity that it's so short

What even is a backup entity? Lovely abstract game!

I liked the strangeness of this game. Unfortunately it broke for me once and I had to reload the page. Not sure why.

Glad you liked the strangeness!

I like how this game plays with the flow of time.
Nice cutscenes.

Thanks! Time flow was one of my favorite things to work on.
