The cabin smells of mould and old coffee. The kid in the cell keeps pacing grooves into the floorboards and swears he’ll go quiet, go home, and be good. I’ve heard it all before and don’t buy much of it. My deputy says I should eat, I say I should sleep, but neither of us moves. Outside, the town laughs too loudly for how late it is. It's Halloween, but still. I count my breaths, count my sins, and count the seconds until this kid is out of my hair. Deputy asks, soft as a hymn, “What’s your call?” I’m about to answer when the door answers for me... a knock.

She was a huge help here; she did the background characters, helped me set up the itch page, did the UI for it, chopped up some vocals with me, implemented assets into the game, aaaaand was just a general awesome support while I was stressing around HA! Best mom in the entire world!

This was a delight! The world is fascinating and the haunting mystery is delightfully devilish, and left me questioning what was real or not - excellent unreality, and a really unexpected amount of depth in choices/variation!

Fantastic voice work, fantastic art/sprites, fantastic music!

Ayy~ Agree with the previous comments. I loved being a part of this production and seeing so many talented people in one place was something...else.

So soulless ginger, when we do get the official OST release, ha? 

Bare with me on that one 0_0

Although I was the voice of the teen, I still pretty much went into this game completely blind, and I gotta say I was incredibly impressed! Literally every single person who worked on this absolutely COOKED. 

It had:

  • CAPTIVATING narrative and lore
  • PHENOMENAL voice acting
  • STUNNING character portraits, backgrounds and UI

...and so much more that I loved about it! Had me cracking up, too.

Amazing job, team!
