Story of my life!
I was a little unclear on how the two worlds "connected" and I wasn't able to progress in any real way as the adventurer. Still, great art, both the characters and background, and I like the concept of being an old man dreaming of another life. The tonal switch in music ambiance really sold the transition.
If I were to put on my designer hat, I would suggest that any found "medications" transition the character to the other world, where the player can progress and see what's different and what is paralleled, then eventually switch back, and so on. Seems like a tidy, interesting game loop.
Enjoyed your entry! Good luck in your future endeavors (and go easy on the brewskis)
