Main thought running through my head is &quot;would they really have made it hinge on who you talk to, or were there clues in the introductory texts&quot;? Reading speed's good, at least for me, but I might read a bit faster than average. Nice use of the music, I think it's important to nail that in a game like this. I'm not sure if the control is in there since I didn't see a description for them, but a &quot;back&quot; function of some sort would've helped. Will also point out that your Source download is only for registered Box users, and that on the readme it currently says LD29, not 28. :) Good luck, friends!"},{"author_name":"Twila","author_uid":"18869","time":"Dec 17, 2013 @ 3:46am","epoch":1387251660,"text":"NICE. :)"},{"author_name":"Kayelgee","author_uid":"15267","time":"Dec 17, 2013 @ 3:48am","epoch":1387251780,"text":"I didn't like the ending somehow."},{"author_name":"stvr","author_uid":"26473","time":"Dec 17, 2013 @ 3:51am","epoch":1387251960,"text":"Really polished, with a great art style.
