wonderful! gorgeous illustration, prose, music, excellent use of photography for this collage-style moment. this game holds so much tenderness for people of the past, and i loved doll-frame-story as a way to explore the people who weren’t truly in the story. i also love the historical-except approach… the strange, matter-of-fact magic of a place where the snow never melts, and the trees that hold dolls inside. fantastical, made practical by the question of, ‘but how do we make any damn money off of this?’. and what that question means for our two leads. really lovely story. thank you for sharing.

thank you very much! 🙇‍♂️

I am pretty dang stuck on level 22 lol, hoping to crack it but wanted to leave a comment now! love the art and story crumbs so far, this gives me old RPGmaker vibes in the best way. great little puzzles although i am uh Bad at them lol. looking forward to seeing what this grows into! <3 thank you for sharing.

never apologize. i love reading comments :) <3

THANK YOU!!!

augh!! thank YOU for playing, means a lot ;o; something about humanity when the world feels hostile to the concept… im into it

thank you! :)

Thank you so much! I’m so glad you liked it! :)

Thank you very much! Glad you enjoyed :)

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!

Adore. Loved the world building and the characters in it. Long live Leon the deer girl, assuming he didn’t explode at that gas station. That last scene was soooo good. The line ‘I just like hearing the alarms’. Very good. Thank you for sharing!

visual novel poetry!!! so cool. i really thought this was very affecting in a nice little package. love the low poly look too. thank you for sharing!

I enjoyed this! I think the framing device of the doll was really fun, and I loved the artstyle a lot. Bobby was so cute in her gross little way. I thought it was interesting how the second person narration blurred the line between Bobby and the doll too. Thank you for sharing!

geez this was so good. so melancholy and beautiful. seriously in awe of the mixed media approach and what was achieved there– it’s always amazing to see someone achieve something that i couldn’t even think about beginning. i’ll be thinking about the ending sequence where each character answers those questions for quite a long time.

lovely!!! definitely had the feeling that it could really only end one way, but really enjoyed watching it all unfold. this story was almost soothing in its beauty. i loved imagery of abigail yearning for what's on the other side of that river.

I enjoyed this! Probably not the intended vibe but the feeling I got was being with your parents who really should be divorced but aren't and you're trying to always hedge your bets a little LOL. I got the Rina, Rell, and Selan end and really enjoyed the Twist, it was fun to have that explanation. Overall I thought this was really well put together, thanks for sharing!

hello, would you be willing to post a mac build of this? i'm really intrigued and want to play it but i am sadly a mac user!!! no worries either way 🙇‍♂️

thank you very much! i love your work and i know you’re very busy reading the other entries so you taking the time to comment means a lot 🙇

i was really intrigued watching you post this in the discord server and im so impressed with how polished it came out! yay for these awful women together hooray. offsuit pair/balatro crossover When

thank you!!! yay capitalism affecting all things!!!

thank you very much! i'm glad that those two elements stood out to you specifically.

thank you so much! i'm so glad you liked it! :)

sorry you had trouble, glad you got it figured out!

im sorry you're having problems, have you tried a running start before you jump? that's what i think you have to do to get over this area. if that doesn't help, what are you running it on?

really neat concept! i love a clicker game haha so this was fun to play around with.  i liked the flavor text of the random thoughts a lot.

one note is i am not sure what made the flavor text pop up for the upgrades, and so they would only randomly appear for me? i couldn't figure out how to make them appear. maybe if there was a note on that included in info that would help. i bought some upgrades without being sure of what they did.

thanks for sharing, excited to see what you do next :)

thank you so much for the comment and feedback! that note about designed spaces totally makes sense- some kind of indicator definitely would have helped. i’ll keep that in mind in the future- thanks for taking the time to play!

i unfortunately had some glitches and couldn't make it too far but i really liked the mood! cool concept!
