A Whimsical Adventure At The Other Side Of The Rainbow by kibertoad
"Whimsical Adventure at the Other Side of the Rainbow" is a short visual novel with multiple endings in the self-proclaimed "willpunk" setting. It has elements of mystical horror, maybe a (not) love story, and two of the coolest swords ever crafted by men.
The game is controlled almost completely by mouse, in a usual VN fashion. F12 to toggle fullscreen, F10 to quit.
Pay attention, unwise choices may lead you to an early ending or back to the start of the game. However, wise choices (or choice) may lead to a random result. It is fully intended; we are pretentious like that.

"I..I feel like everything is connected somehow..."
I am reminded just a touch of I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream, which is def. a cool thing to be reminded of.
Also, I got to be free, apparently. Yay?
(not exactly my favourite atmosphere, though; I generally prefer to have somewhat solid idea about what happened, eventually ^^")
On a side note, the first screenshot looked like a colour-swapped version of Cheshire Cat from American McGee's Alice. ^^"

All those things being said, though, I enjoyed the time I spent with it enough to go find 3 or 4 endings, and really dug the audio and graphics. Thank you for the game!
