Either I missed something, or this game basically records all of your actions and replays it later, only with more blood. Sorry, but I can't see the game or any fun in it.

Well I talked to everyone I could and got the items and talked again and just wandered aimlessly for a while before giving up because I didn't know what to do. Red text was really hard to read too.

Cool retro style and a funny twist in the "story" :-)

It's not very clear that you need to walk off to the left to go to the rooms.

Also, replay hung on first conversation, not sure why.

Nicely animated though.

Oh, I get it: the guy lives in his own world when you play for the first time. But he is actually a psychopath. The game got stuck in the second part. But I like the idea of different perceptions of the same reality.

Yeah, sadly the replay is not very robust. It gos mad if the engine drops too much frames. Realized that shortly before jam end :(

I added a hint to the description. The "Rooms" exit is not very clear.

Thanks for the feedback @all

Wow, what a gruesome tale. And even more horrible because it takes my movements!! But why? Why did I do this???

The payoff is definitely worth it.

Nice game and good graphics.

It seems to be very difficult to get the second play to go correctly, tried twice and managed to get to the second kill only. The story is a bit interesting but the game could use some more gameplay.

This was a rather sweet game! I liked the friendly tone, and cute graphics.

Replay hung here too after some time, and it seemed as if it didn't reproduce my actions precisely - maybe I just forgot. Nice retro style, although gore is not really my thing.

what a pity, it's too short I think, but fun, good idea otherwise ! It's like a movie where we are the 'hero' !

matthias_zarzecki 2014-05-02 12:45

Ohh, neat idea :)

This game was crazy bananas. I got stuck in the end but it was pretty fun while it lasted.

Interesting game with a twist!

frump 2014-05-03 22:21

That was funny! I couldn't help but think how overly saccharine everything was during the original playthrough. Then it got flipped on its head in the second part.

azzar 2014-05-04 17:43

Really good entry! Thank you!

Nice Pokemon style environment. Unfortunately, couldn't consistently choose from the options.

The pixel art is just lovely. Loved the characters and the story.
