What an enjoyable story, I felt like I was playing an episode of Goosebumps or "Are you Afraid of the Dark?" I was expecting more horror since the was was for spooktober gamejam but this kind of frights are fine too, a little bit of fun, a little bit of mystery and a whole lot of character personality.

The music is nice, the character design and portraits as well as the animations elevate the experience a lot, my favorite part were definitely the endings, such a good closing for the story, very satisfying.

Another great aspect that was really REALLY well done was all the choices we make trough the game, even if they don't affect the ending they go a long way on making the player actually relate and feel the story and emotions of the character.

I personally related a lot to Mari(gold) and her views on life so I often clashed with the narrative of the game but that's more of a personal opinion than anything and it did not affect my enjoyment of the game at all.

My only "issue" is that maybe the story stretches a bit too long in some points, although is very nice to see the slow decent to madness of the protagonist and how everything slowly crumbles, regardless of who's fault it is; aside from a really nice spooky story it makes for a great self introspective cautionary tale.

Keep up the good work!

Thank you so much for playing and the feedback! I’m glad you appreciated the choices and that the endings were your favourite part! Was there one spooky ending you liked best?

(Also happy to hear the choices felt relatable to the emotions of the characters! It was tricky writing them for a linear story with only branches at the end. Hehe I added them in pretty last minute from beta-reader feedback XD)

And I agree that this was definitely more a goosebumps/twilight zone vibe and a dark comedy rather than a full pee-your-pants kind of horror haha. I am looking to experiment more with suspense and scary stories in the future (hopefully I don’t scare myself too much LOL)
