I also liked the idea and the artsyle. I just found some bug which made the game restart as soon as the line appears ~70% of the times so it was kinda annoying to wait for some try to play.

Game made me feel anxious, which art can make you feel feelings; which this one succeeded.

The sounds and music definitely added to that along with having to keep your little pencil line 'alive', I also enjoyed the story. Great job.

This is AMAZING. The art and the music and the sounds and the atmosphere are just amazing, I love this to bits!!! Oh my gosh!

This hit a very sensitive spot for me too, as someone who struggles with extreme anxiety and a lot of derealization/depersonalization, and I actually had to pause and take a moment to breathe halfway through the game because of the effect it had on me. This is seriously awesome, definitely my favorite of all the submissions here, this is amazing!

This is an awesome take on the theme and the limitation, and I absolutely adored all the levels! They were really fun to play through! One thing though, several times when the levels reloaded I'd lose immediately before even being able to move, is that a glitch or is there a timer? Anyhow, I love them, al the levels looked so good and were really fun to play through!

Also, the atmosphere really gave me chills. The whispers and the crying had me really anxious all the time and the story made me really emotional.

This is amazing and I love it, everyone did an awesome job on it!

Thanks a lot for the comments, we really appreciate that you took your time in playing our game and writing that awesome comment!

And maybe the massive reload thing is a bug, we'll fix it this week, thanks for letting us know.

Have a great day Mayhem!

OH MY GOD!! I just one thing to say WHAT A MASTERPIECE!

I tried 26 games at this point and this is definitely the best one! Everything is perfect :

The sound design is so scary and well designed, The art is just awesome and those "levels" are very well designed!

No need to talk about the concept, if someone didn't tried it yet, just go for it!! the story is simple but awesome! Maybe the gameplay is not enough intuitive because you just need to "survive" and not reach a specific point..  but it's very original!

I just want to say THANK YOU to this insane team and keep doing masterpiece like this one! (I instant follow lol).

And one last thing : Is the main art a jojo reference? hehe

Hey artist here ._. / I never saw that series, I like the art it has, however no, I created that style some time ago while studying

Thanks a lot for the feedback, your comment made us break up in tears, hearing the word "Masterpiece" is such a strong word that it made us feel like everything was worth it.

Thank you so much for taking the time of writing this comment and for playing our game!

(And no, it wasn't a Jojo reference haha)
