Love this little bug game!

Thank you so much, our artists put a ton of care and attention into making the world look awesome :) 

Thank you so much, so happy you enjoyed it!!!

That means so much!! Thank you for playing :)

Thank you so much!! We had so much fun making it, I'm really glad it gave you feelings and laughs :))

This was soooo good!! Loved the glitchiness toward the end, that had me smiling and double checking that I was playing the game right when everything went red. Definitely struck an emotional chord with me :)

I love the concept of a haunted aquarium! And I also really liked the design of the receptionist!

Thank you for playing!! It really means so much to us :)

This was really cool and super messed up! I had an awesome time! I died several times but finally made it to the end. Totally curious about all the different endings, might need to go back and try again.

Love the visuals! Such a fantastic art style! 

Wooooow this was so sick!! Loved the simple story, the art was phenomenal, the sound design was perfect! Creepy and cute in all the right ways! Loved Ash and Iris, great duo :)

Thank you for making this, def gonna be recommending it!

Very cool! You've done a great job using Pico-8 to make something really creepy and atmospheric. Was a little confused about the story, but I think I got the gist, and it was definitely creeping me out! Might need to play again and see if I can follow it a little better and try for the other endings.

Would love to see more! Keep making cool stuff :)

Edit: Also was fun to see another game called Dead Air about spooky radio signals hehe :)

The art and character designs are so interesting and diverse! I especially loved the design of A'Res. Gorgeously voice-acted as well!

I really enjoyed exploring the question of what it means to be human and the back and forth between A'Res and Lux. Congrats to your whole team!

Thank you for playing! Glad you liked the referenced :) there was an Elvis Costello reference that didn't quite make the cut...

Thank you for playing!! Would definitely recommend playing again and trying for a different ending :) Rumor has it there are 4 unique endings you can get...

Thank you :D

Thank you for the kind words! We are definitely going to do another version coming soon and we'll keep your note about the text in mind and see what we can do!

Wow, completely and totally touched by your words :,) Really happy that this resonated!

Not sure why I never responded to this comment, because I need to tell you that I sometimes look back at this and feel very proud of what Benjamin and I made here. Thank you so much for your kind words, we are very happy that this project had such an impact :)

This game was a joy to make! I hope everyone enjoys :D

Soo creepy! Probably a bad idea to have played this at 2 in the morning haha. Amazing job!!

Aww thank you so much :) It was a very personal story and it makes me so happy that it seemed to have resonated with so many people. And thank you for playing it so long after it's release, glad people are still finding and enjoying it!

Oof, this one hit close to home. Short and sweet. Definitely got a little teary-eyed at Dylan's story... never having a cupcake again :,(

Loved the art and the music and the voice acting and the story, it was all spot-on! Thanks for making this cool little game :)

Had so much fun working on this amazing project :)))

Glad you enjoyed!

Thank you for the shoutout!! I will take all that advice!

As someone on the path to be a teacher, the fact that you said you would recommend it for children (and that it doesn't feel like a lesson) really means so so so much to me. I blame the authenticity on the fact that this story happened to me, pretty much exactly as I told it, and for better or worse I do think that made a cool VN. Thank you so much for playing!

So so glad you enjoyed it and it resonated! It was so much fun to write and to make with Featherboy!

Ok now it's your turn to make a VN about someone with an avoidant attachment style so I can understand that better :D

Wow, this is so sweet :') So glad you enjoyed our silly little story!!

I did!!

Decent

Here is my and Benjamin Feinstein's (FeatherBoy) submission for the streaming contest! We made Mothdude.

Thanks for playing and for your sweet comments!

So happy you enjoyed!

We did it, Benjamin! Woooo!

So cool and creative! Love the idea and the art style!
