Short and sweet, cynical but hopeful game. I laughed once I found the cause of the time loop, and the quick fix needed. The use of the loop mechanic to reflect the simple repetition of daily life was clever, and fit well into the gameplay. Looking forward to checking out your other games.

What an incredibly well done game! The characters were all well fleshed out, and I enjoyed getting to spend time with them. I also liked that there seemed to be optional dialogue choices and additional exploring not required to finish the game, but they fleshed out the game world more intricately. Also the lack of dead ends and moon-logic puzzles made for a thoroughly enjoyable play-through.
I'm not sure why anyone would criticize the racism in the game, as all racism that appears is immediately condemned by the characters. The racism and racial tension on display were very much a real part of the riots and frustration present at the time and setting of the game (1992 LA Riots). Wandering through it made me sad that we haven't come very far since then, as evidenced by the recent deaths of Breonna Taylor, George Floyd, and countless others.
On completing the game, I felt like the characters were all trying to overcome their differences and pull together as a community, which is a lot more than I expected from a game called Urban Witch Story. Great work, guys! Can't wait to see more from you.
