Turning people into mermaids by force is not a new idea and I don’t see that many similarities except for that and it being in a facility. It is just a coincidence. 

Neat little concept. I loved sending my friends to murder houses until I made a mistake :D

I just checked yours and I was blown away T_T You did incredible job!

This was incredible! It is so well made and both the art and the story are so beautiful! It made me feel heavy and relate to the character so much. I really hope you are planning on working more on this, as we need more experiences like this!

PS. Caring for plants instead of yourself is too true T_T

Hiii :D I am doing my last ratings and your is next in line. Very excited to try it! Here is mine little walking sim.

Oh my gosh! I didn't expect any of this. This was so unsettling and demented. Bravo!

This is so well made and charming|! I wasn't expecting a little strategy and it was a very nice surprise! Congratulations on making this!

This is so wholesome! I was really invested and worried something terrible is going to happen - which in my case was that it crashed at some point :/ I also really appreciate the text sound - it is very pleasant. Hope you get to finish the story soon!

Very well made and stylish experience. The fact that someone died of chicken pox because they read books to kids was such nice funny-sad detail XD 

I am currently fighting Windows over the virus threat when trying to download :/ Which is a shame since I really wanted to try this as screenshots remind me of SOMA.

Hello! I would really appreciate if you could check out my little submission! Its a short atmospheric walk that explores a situation many of us are familiar with. I apologise for speed in advance as I forgot to lower it before packaging. I will make sure to check yours later today :) Thank you!

I literally learned the engine because I grew up with Unreal series :D But I will make sure it doesn’t feel like running for a flag. 

I actually worked in an indie studio, but every rose etc etc. It was very difficult experience and I am planning to stay solo for now. Thank you again for checking out my game! I will make sure to check out yours later in the day :3

Thank you very much for checking it out! I actually dropped the ball on walking speed as I increased even above default and forgot to bring it back down xD I will make sure to do it in an update! 

Hi! I would love it if you could check out my little submission. It is also about a garden, but a very different kind :) I will make sure to check out yours later today.

Hi! Here is my little atmospheric walk that briefly explores unfortunate situation known to too many people. Thank you for checking it out!

Hi all! This is my first solo project and first online jam. I lovingly crafted a short atmospheric walk through the garden, which explores a situation that is very familiar to many. Please enjoy and thank you for checking it out!

I have no idea what was happening, but game has great atmosphere and old 3D game charm. Really enjoyed audio decisions as well. The bug I had was dialogue text stuck on screen.

Enjoyable little plant and potion management game. Wish we could find out what happened to people we sold potions to :3 could be a funny little addition.

Very simple and short, but slightly unsettling. It just coldly going to the next number at the end, like nothing happened, was pretty effective. Love the final message as well.

Charting out a labyrinth with your blood is not the concept I think anyone ever seen. Good job with a really creative take on a theme here!

It is a super charming game! Loved the color palette especially. And I really appreciate dialogue and clicking sound - in some of these games it can be quite jarring, but here it was very pleasant. The writing is great and I really enjoyed the silly jokes.

This game has very charming reto-pixel graphics and very pleasant color palette. The music is absolutely epic. I beat all six spirits and combat was very straight forward. I just wish I met the final boss :/ Overall this game is a very good time.

Very well made experience. Loved the atmosphere and the retro graphics!

It is an honor to be roasted by the famous Flob. Thank you for checking out my little dumpster fire XD

I understand all that,  but as am  one of the people you are literally trying to represent and deliver the message to I still believe you could clarify your message because it comes of as mixed. 

Thank you very much! I am very glad you liked it :) I maybe adding more interactivity if I decide to continue this project.

I appreciate you trying to deliver uplifting and hopeful message. But I do believe you should consider reworking the ending to avoid it being misunderstood. 

Thank you so much for trying it out and nice feedback :)

This is very well written, but at the moment I am struggling to finish it as at some point character refuses to pick up the stool :/ Also I died to the wardrobe 3 times and it was hilarious. PS. I now have new fear of wardrobes. 

This was honestly a fun little experience. Loved the story and the voice acting. I love it when my friends come back from the dead and eat me. Great job and congratulations on your first game!

I really enjoyed this one! Just the right level of morbid for me. The mini game was surprisingly engaging for something this simple, I can also see it becoming a bit repetitive but you could always add something like different minigames for different body parts :) But overall I loved and would love to see it as a bigger game.

Unfortunately the game is too buggy to try out. It either puts me into the celling or I cant interact with the door. One time I got to the graveyard I floated away into the skies :(

Update: I managed to finish it after 8 restarts. The atmosphere and the premise are pretty cool. The dialogue is not for me but I can see what you were aiming for, so that is just a matter of preference :My feedback would be - fixing up the bugs, fixing up broken colliders and replacing footsteps sound as it is just not a good quality sound and as we hear it all the time it really should be less jarring. Otherwise good work and good job finishing the jam :)

Awww it was so nice but so short! Love that main character is a black cat and I would like to see where the story actually goes cuz it has the beginnings of something that can go either sweet or very noir or supernatural.
