oh my god. i went for the lottery ticket and it immediately hit. 10/10 game
jokes aside, i actually had a lot of fun with this game! the combination of the hunting knife and pills with the bandage ended up being my go-to strat, and it felt very satisfying tearing through the mysterious health bars. my only nitpick is that i would've liked to be able to buy things directly into the playing area, or to be able to swap items between the inventory and playing area. i had to sacrifice a few items just for the sake of inventory management even though i would have enough slots in theory. that's my only nitpick, though. i really like all the different items and the game was surprisingly very easy to pick up despite me usually being bad at picking up on games. the aesthetic you've gone for is also very cool, gives me strong buckshot roulette vibes.
