got surprised when reading there were no saves. it just added more of challenge as stated in the note itself. my first time in the game itself felt exciting, but when getting to moving from the beginning spot...I downright got creeped by the sounds that echoed into my ears. to which it really plays with giving an eerie vibe at the very start. also the fact the text takes time to pop up slowly adds to having a cold lil crawl up the spine not knowing what comes next [until of course having to reset then it becomes sorta normal but the sounds still spook me right on out]
besides the the spooky sounds, when sleeping came upon the player, the shift in the sounds playing was addicting in a sense. I lingered longer on them as the music was so soothing. it was one thing I enjoyed with each reset.
the story itself, each and every interaction...honestly just everything is breathtaking and really held my attention and I felt so much sorrow later on into the game when getting to the hotlands. I felt the character's depressed state, and it just brought me up when I found the shop.
after that going into the endings, I ended up getting the friendship which made me bit sad, and then got confused with the cycling and thought it was a reset and Sans would remember in the next go. I learned it the hard way until cracking and going to the walkthrough. and I liked the small lil bonus that is shown with the romance route [and also the interaction of the great power of the character holds over Sans during the romance route truly hilarious]
