I enjoyed the Art and story. The Music flowed very well with the game and I felt the overarching theme was very impactful. I felt like in some ways I could related or knew people in my personal life that I could relate to Laurel's position. Sometimes the easiest task can be hard when accompanied by fears and anxieties.

Thank you!

(as to your last idea: very much agree. it can be difficult, especially if dealing with mental illness)

The story and choices felt very interactive and natural. I really like how the choices feel like they actually matter.

That was a big concern of mine, so I'm very happy that got through. Thank you!

Loved your take on the theme. After lock down and working from home I can relate to never wanting to leave the house and feeling anxious about going places, though not quite to this extent, but overall great job, and the visuals were fantastic!

Thanks much! I can't take credit for the visuals - much more talented people than i made them! - but i'm glad to know they suited the game well.
