Sometimes, in life, we face something that we think will forever leave a scar on us, prying on our joy, on our happiness, on our sanity... but sometimes even the darkest moments hide a way out.

Sometimes the only way out really is through...

I think the character's jumping voice sound could have used some reverb to make it sound like it was in the environment it is in. I LOVED the background piano and the intro theme so props to Pietro (I'd like a copy of the songs if possible) @EthanThopkins on discord. The direction in the game was a bit unclear. At some parts I was questioning to myself like "am I doing the right thing?" but I still figured it out and got to the end so it didn't make it unplayable at all. Good job guys!

Wow great job! I loved the art style and the audio!

I liked this game, very moody and chill. The wrapping levels were a nice idea. A bit of inconsistency in first and second levels, one has normal jumps and the second one had huge jumps. May be by design, though.

I liked the look and feel. The level design was a bit strange and I wasn't really sure what I was supposed to do.

This was awesome! LOVED THE ART AND AUDIO, great combo. I wanna learn all about the main character. Also, loved the reflection in the mirror. Super cool.

Art and music are great. Animations are a bit strange.

Gameplay & level design promote the "deeper & deeper" theme well.

Would love to play a more story heavy version of this in the future!

The controls and animations was a little rough around the edges, but an interesting art style and the wrapping levels were pretty cool!

Gorgeous soundtrack and background visuals. Wish I could walk faster though :cry:
