Thank you! It's nice that the setting and atmosphere got through to you! :)

>connect the fuel source to the torch?

I hadn't figured it as a connection, exactly; the command you need is (ROT13) CHG PLYVAQRE VA GBEPU.

I might add some synonyms.

>This confused me a little earlier:

Thanks for reporting that bug. I'll have an update out that fixes this soon.

Very good. I like the twist behind the author of the footnotes—very clever. Also a tasteful time cave. The found document style is lovely.

Very nice. I did intend to submit that song, but must have got it muddled up with Everything Gets Sacrificed while I was entering the form. Whoops. No problem, though.

Open in QTads (https://realnc.github.io/qtads/)

Thank you! I'm glad you found it vivid.

Sorry for assaulting you with colour, then.

>but only after a link

I'm presuming you mean only after a wait? I was trying to accentuate the usage of timed text.

Very nice, even with the oddities of a custom parser.

Also having played this, there's three endings?

Examining the skulls gives me the following result: "You see 6 crystal skulls set in the wall. TypeError: Re.keys().map is not a function. (In 'Re.keys().map((e=>be.$.persist[e]?1:0))', 'Re.keys().map' is undefined)"

Does this impede solving the game in any way?

This one forced me to resort to the walkthrough, but was otherwise fun.

The only baffling pronunciation in this one was the A DROUGHT one, which perhaps works if you imagine someone speaking in a Scottish accent, but while it he second word appeared reasonable to me, the first one came only after experimenting with three letter words that would fit.

Pretty good, even if the starting pun depended on such a leap of pronunciation that I had to resort to hints.

Very interesting.  Really brings to mind the sub-genre of horror typified by It Follows. 

Thanks for the feedback on timing! Also I just noticed a typo (tbis for this)—RIP me.

Very good. Though I felt someone would be more likely to just send a form email saying something like “Your email is very important to us, but unfortunately misdirected.” than take on all that work—but then the horror of being buried under all that work as your coworkers vanish would not be as apparent, so it works. :P

You fooled me into thinking "huh, this is under-implemented" until the "Aha!":moment of the title and what was going on. Short but brilliant. 

Thanks for the clarification!

Is development time for Le Petit Mort required to be continuous (as it would have been—by necessity—for Speed IF) or is it allowed to be non-continuous and have arbitrary length breaks in-between so long as actual development time never exceeds four hours?

Watched your video of you going through the Shufflecomp entries, and that's prompted me to point out that "From the Stars II" was one of the songs off my playlist. 

Not exactly? It was good in itself, but made me want a game about them actually carrying off a con more than anything.

Replayed and it worked? Nice to know that was just an (irreproducible?) bug, not me missing something obvious.

Surreal imagery and a map that's more compact than it first feels.

Rather good  environment from what I managed to play of it, but the arbitrariness of the sort-of world model stumped me (e.g. given that the PC isn't forced to drop the rope by going through the purple tapestry, why can't the PC drop the rope down the hole behind the door?)

What I played  of it was good, but unfortunately it errored out after I got to the "Closer Still" link

The exact error is: In Passage.render() using _.template(): SyntaxError: Unexpected identifier 'tel'. Expected either a closing ']' or a ',' following an array element.

The concepts of an interactive whiteout is interesting. The effect it creates is one of constant reduction—everything seems to be propelled towards to a small, collapsed point.

Feels a bit too much like amuse-bouche for a larger story.

Very nice twist.

Rather surreal.

The pearls being linked to o's is a delightfully charming touch.

A good exploration of a band that seems to be on the verge of breaking up.

Very nice! Good atmospheric descriptions.

Thank you very much!

reads like a very nice short story.

Interesting setting.

Finally played the bug-fixed version, and seeing the protagonist’s mysterious ex-comrade turn up again at the end was interesting.

I also liked the reference to one of the songs in the last but one client.

Thank you! 

Re: being rushed and underimplemented, that's because it was.

unique premise and 8-bit vibes

Intriguingly presented and ends on a cliffhanger.

had a very poetic vibe
