Hikiyami! Thank you so much for playing and your feedback! Don't worry about not finishing it, it is one of my most frustrating games hahahaha
This was my second game and it was quite experimental, it was made in 5 days so it was reaaaally rushed and I overlooked many, many aspects. I honestly can't remember why I made the time loop mechanic so frustrating, I mean, having to talk with everyone again, doing everything again...I don't know what I was thinking! And I even endured it during testing. I was totally crazy hahahah
And yeah, being punished for using the flashlight in very dark areas is straight down bad game design. I do like the plot and the atmosphere though, and after watching your video, I think I might remake this in MZ with better graphics, reworked mechanics, more areas and many endings. It would certainly be interesting to apply my current knowledge to my second game ever. Hahaha, now I'm feeling the urge to remake this game as soon as possible! (but at the same time, I'm working on the third Alesa game and also on a game that involves a lot of body horror instead of gore)
Anyway
As always, thank you for your amazing feedback and your gameplay! :D
