A rather short game but an incredibly satisfying one to go through.
Congratulations on another game with an extensive narrative (one far deeper than you'd know/expect at the start--if you didn't know anything about the team behind this game). The reward for staying and unlocking the mystery is what this studio specializes in. And I'm here for it!
As an achievement hunter, I wanted to unlock the whole snowflake/stats map despite already having received the final clue needed for the true ending. But getting there was painless thanks to the skip feature. (I just had to remember where I *hadn't* gone yet because if I wasn't careful, I could have accidentally skipped new dialogue.)
The art and music is stunning! Loved the colour palette. Loved the chilling vibes that perfectly straddle hopeful and eerie when needed. Both elements beautifully matched the overall tone and theme of the game.
Some of the dialogue even made me chuckle!! Best of luck with the jam!!
WOOOOO!!!!
Another Banger from a team that I expect continually great things from!
