Nice work! I really like the visual and audio settings in the game. The pixel and tinge theme is very attracting and nostalgic

A simple yet melancholy story that reminds me of the days I used to wander around the library, leafing through books.

What a cozy take on old tech, it really does remind me of times before being able to just google something. The visuals really help this nostalgic feeling and the slower, gently pace is so welcome. really nicely done!

I love this kind of narrative exploration game.

One major gripe: The phone notification popup blocks the book pages, so you have to open/dismiss it to read the actual book. The phone also requires scrolling which wasn't obvious at first. It also took me a moment to realize I needed to use 'e' to interact with the bookshelves and not the mouse.

Overall lovely little game. It would have been nice to get a bit more substantial of a payoff at the end, but I understand the Jam is not so forgiving to always allow such things.

Nice work!

Cute game. Audio and visuals were great.

I really love some little random notes hidden in some of the books in the library! The idea of uncovering the truth by reading books that may or may not be relevant is really interesting. I spent quite a while clicking around with my mouse before I figured out how to interact with things (only realised this after reading the comments haha.) A small popup hint could be helpful here :) overall it’s a really nice game. Keep up the great work!

I found the developer list! An intresting game with special mechanics. I enjoyed follow the clues one by one and unravel the whole story. Great work!

@ralex-x Thanks for feedback! Our artist did put a lot of effort in environment!

@mashiro4261 Thank you so much!

@nephem Yeah that is exactly the feeling we wanted to create. Hope you had some fun with it!

@vary Thank you so much! That is exactly the atmosphere we were going for! Hope you enjoyed it !

@fireslash We really appreciate your detailed feedback! Yeah that's the main problem in our UI interactions right now. We will DEFINITELY find some time to fix it! (all the developers are drowning in midterms right now lol///

@sarenei Thanks for playing!

@dracco-0n So glad that you enjoyed the gameplay! Your suggestions about the hints are really really helpful! We'll work on improving it as soon as we finish our midterms ahh!

@lizzyli Congratulations! Thanks a lot!!

Pretty cool game! The annoying part was the phone notification getting on the way for a bit, but overall, pretty cool!

美术风格和解密风格都很有意思的游戏,在刚点进来的时候以为是像rusty lake一样的场景解谜,但是玩了一会之后发现更像奥伯拉丁的回归/鲁特里一家死了一类的文本解谜游戏,我很喜欢!如果之后能有更多的能够验证谜底的玩法就好了(应该是三天时间限制的原因),感觉是一款潜力很大的解谜游戏!加油!

Very impressive for something made in 72 hours. Short but enjoyable with definite ways it could expand if you wanted to; I'd imagine taking the clues you find in the books and maybe piecing them together in a separate puzzle?

The art and vibe were nice! The game was very short though. Good job!
