Fantastic game! Love the concept, the atmosphere, fitting music. Dealer's design is something that will stick with me for a long time.

I really hope you expand on this concept and add multiplayer to it, many people including myself would love that.

You're very much welcome! Thank you too for taking time out of your day to respond to every comment here, including my own, it's very heartwarming.

I see! I didn't know it was part of the game jam, that would make a lot of sense with time constraints. 

And if you do add a potential good ending, dare I suggest that it would be better to make a "remake" of sorts, instead of updating this game? With more interactions/dialogue options and upstairs location and the multiple endings themselves. 

Haha, obviously that's just a bold suggestion knowing how much work that would take. That being said I'd love to see any expansion someday! So I'll wait patiently whether it comes to life or not.

Thank you, well to be honest it just took some keen observation from myself and the willingness to interact with everything available (as intended).

Regarding the apples, yeah I was surprised they're non interactable and just an item in your inventory, so I do hope you add this feature someday! No pressure though.

Thank you too for responding and making the game! I'm glad I was able to inspire you in some way! I really do have a lot to say about the game.

I absolutely love this game. Saw Manly's playthrough of it a year ago and decided to play it myself, and what better day to do so approaching Halloween.

Alice is a great character, considering the fact that the player only witnesses her last few days of her life it puts a lot of perspective entirely through environmental storytelling and her own comments. Doing so you get a sense what type of person she is without any backstory. I wonder if she always was like this before the well's(?) or the other evil influence that washed over her.

The sound design - it really does well to accompany each day's activity and atmosphere with fitting musical track, becoming worse and worse as days go on. 

The artstyle - probably my favorite part about the game. I absolutely adore your artstyle, it somehow blends the cute expressions along with horrifying ones.

The story itself, despite being such a small and secluded location there's so many questions regarding what events transpired here and I really wish the game was a bit longer. Part of me wanted to save Alice by managing to repair the car somehow haha.

Also I'm proud to say that I found the easter egg! When you said that it's "It's extremely hard to find" I thought I wouldn't be able to find it, but alas I was able to. And reading your own thoughts there I do understand where your frustrations can come from when players don't interact with object despite it being the entirety of the game. Well, at least in my case you don't have to worry about that because I inspected everything in the game twice if not more, I don't think I missed a single thing.

There were however a few things I was let down by and that's the inability to interact with apples and other objects, like the shovel/oil etc. I think it would be awesome to add a few monologues if you decide to eat the various kinds of apples or use the shovel for something, and so on. 

But overall this game is definitely one of my favorite horror short games out there. And it has always been in my mind ever since I saw it.
