Absolutely wonderful game! I really loved the general aesthetics of the game - the atmosphere work was nicely done, and I just... enjoyed the general appearance of the game? It provided a general unsettling feeling, I think. The sound work was very nice, too! I wore headphones (per your recommendation) and it definitely added to the atmosphere. Overall, I am certainly no game expert, but as a casual player with most of her experience stemming from watching ManlyBadassHero play horror games (i am a wimp), I can safely say that I had a great time playing this myself!
Unrelated note: I stopped to look at the flowers on my way to the market, because, well. Who doesn't love flowers? :p Maybe the Smiling Man was admiring them, too! Perhaps I could offer to go flower-picking with the guy? ... Although I feel like that's how I'd get a knife in my gut, but I digress.
Great work, and I hope to see more from you in the future! :)
PS: This is my first time commenting on a game here on Itch.io, so I apologize if there was anything strange about my comment! I'm not exactly sure how to go about this, so I'm just sorta commenting the same way that I would on a fanfiction that I enjoyed, haha. Again, great work!! <3
