They fit right in and were perfect to that kind of atmosphere. \r<br\/>\r<br\/>The whole game gave a good vibe for its theme and idea and I liked how it played. The narrative was interesting and the hints were really well done (albeit the [SPOILERS----------] glowing took a bit to figure out). \r<br\/>\r<br\/>I liked the sounds but I wished for music. I understand from your postmortem what you chose that. Still music could have added quite a bit with the right tone as you mentioned. \r<br\/>\r<br\/>Great work and I really liked the concept very well. :)"},{"author_name":"Manou","author_uid":"29477","time":"Aug 25, 2014 @ 10:13am","epoch":1408961280,"text":"Very good idea and execution!
