I tried to enter the compo with a Construct 2 game but was a little over ambitious.

Here is a Twine game instead. I hope you enjoy. :)

P.s. This is my first game with Twine, I really enjoyed using it and intend to explore it further in the future. This game is a bit raw.

I always like Twine games, because I like a good story.

I play a lot of Ace Attorney so I expected things to be explained in a cool plot-twisty way at the end. As such, the ending was a little disappointing. Ah well, my standareds are probably just too high.

Thanks for the feedback xgeovanni! This was my first game with Twine, I certainly intend to plan out more interesting twists in future games.

Yeah, the ending felt like a bit of an anti-climax, sorry. But I loved the build-up before that. I was fascinated to know what was happening to Sarah and the game completely subverted my expectations. (I was prepared for it to be standard day-in-the-life of an IT support guy.)

@dickpoelen Yes, she's fine. I think I need to write a sequel at some point. ;)

@Snoother Thanks for the feedback! Yes the ending was very anti-climactic sadly. I wrote it last night and got very very tired by that point.

It started off quite interesting, but the end was indeed a bit sudden and anti-climatic XD left me curious wanting to know more.

Very cool, well put together, and bonus points for using Twine! I really enjoyed the story!

Really enjoyed this. Managed to get the "correct" ending as well after a few play throughs. Loved the humour in this :)

Entertaining read, and I hit the correct ending on the first go :) Really enjoyed the writing style - had a Douglas Adams vibe to it.

Of course I closed email, I'm in IT! Okay, on second run I didn't, but it led me to all kinds of multi-dimensional issues...

A bit short.
But the meta angle was fun!

Short but intense. Nice story !

First Twine game I've played. It's a nice concept... good writing, somewhat serendipitous storylines! :)

It feels like I'm playing a game of the it crowd, but actually on task and spacey. Good job.
