Really good ambientatiom and the concept is very original. I liked the twist too! Really well done.

Fantastic mood! The only thing that sticks out a little is the unrealistic blood :D Apart from that, really well made, great concept and twist at the end!

Agreed. This game does a lot with a little. Even the lighting changes added to the mood. Nice work!

That atmosphere was nothing short of impressive, especially at the halfway mark.

Voice was a little hard to hear because of all the distortion (or fuzzy-ness, whatever you call them).But nonetheless you pulled off something really nice.

The game is really well made! The atmosphere is strong and tense. Congratulations for making this (quite awful) experience o_O

Great game! The lighting and atmosphere actually made me a bit scared for a second, so I'd consider that a success!

My only small issue is that the voice can be a bit hard to understand, because it's not very loud and it's kind of muffled :)

Wow! Excellent! Nice short game with a superb atmosphere!

I know it's complicated to do, especially when you don't have enough time, but for a game like this, adding subtitles would be really nice. I'm not good in English, and I had a hard time following...

Ah geez, that was such a dark experience: you did a very good job though! I like the little story you got going. It makes you wonder about some extremely hard decisions, and in that way is similar to the 'trolley problem' (google it if you don't know). Also, the voices were at times a bit hard to understand, because they were so distorted, but it wasn't really a big problem. Good job man!

Wow, very creepy and dark experience, almost Papers Please meets Saw, good job, this is something quite original to see in a Jam!

The mood was really fantastic, and graphics/lightning are minimal but really fit the theme and atmosphere.

Awesome visual and mood, looks really polished and really gives feeling!
The end was really dark, wasn't expecting that at all and made me a bit uncomfortable, but in a good way.

Really great work!

Good job! You got the mood just right and the voice acting was amazing but I'm not really into creepy/horror games.

Really weird and interesting game. Mood was spot on, the part *you know which one* really left me a bit uncomfortable (And it's a good thing!) I loved it. I just wish the voice acting was a bit better and maybe if it had subtitles, because it was a bit hard to understand a few lines here and there. Still really solid game.

wow, my friend! really solid entry! I love how you took something so simple and turned into an entertaning game so well. Would love to see some statistics on that last decision :D just curiosity

@tulipekoni so far, from what I've seen about 80% choose left ("d") and others make no decision. Only one person so far had chosen right ("m") I can tell only from twich streams though!

This was pretty darn awesome. You nailed the theme and the mood. It really had you feeling like the choice mattered. Excellent job!
