I MESSED UP, I WAS NEAR THE END OF THE GAME BUT I FLEW TOO CLOSE TO THE SUN AND WENT OUT OF BOUNDS AND FELL THROUGH THE FLOOR AND HAD TO START OVER. Thankfully I was able to get back to where I was fairly quickly, except it took me an embarrassingly long amount of time to get up the zigzag building. It would be so cool if I could platform. Anyway, great game! Very cool, haunting story. The way the story is sprinkled through context clues from messages left by players and the king, as well as the environment, is awesome.

The Portraits story has always scared me bad. Whenever I remember it, whether by seeing it online or having it randomly pop up in my mind, my stomach churns. So this game was set up to terrify me. The creepy atmosphere and lighting, unsettling creaks and groans, color choices, and spine chilling "paintings" made it much worse. The portrait in the bathroom scares the shit outta me (pun intended). The paintings that are chiaroscuro (using stark contrasts of light and dark) look like they are monsters in shadow, waiting to strike. And I think the others having blurry details made them scarier than if they were clear and visible - like you are squinting at something unknown in the dark, making out its vague shape. This game is just very well made, every detail terrifies me. Well done!
