I love the concept and the music!! but seems like the levels are similar, or maybe I missed something, anyway. Anyway, cheers for our 1st LD :)

我是看了indienova上的文章来玩的,能感觉到你想表达的故事。
希望有更多的时间看完那些碎片文字。
配合上音乐和文字,我觉得是一段很有趣的体验。

It's nice concept, but sometimes the collision was wrong :)

I think you have read Kafka - Die Verwandlung! This could be the game to the book! :D
Anyway a good game, but I had some problems with the collisions.

变形记的游戏版,感觉音乐选择不太好,制作的比较仓促吧,完成度在高点的话相信会是不错的作品

Greate idea. The text snippets in between the days are motivating to go on.
It still gets repetitive and boring. But maybe that is the message of the game. :)

I didn't read Die Verwandlung so I don't know what I could expect at the end...

The idea is great, and the game mood reminds me Alley Cat. Nice work!

interesting take on shapeshift!
Felt like the music was a bit out of place with the mood and had some trouble with the collisions (Felt like I should be able to crawl under chair but couldn't). I also wasn't sure why I was getting hurt (hunger?). I liked the narrative bits, but wasn't sure what triggered the ending of the day.

I like how you used the notes to point out parts of the level I didn't realize could be reached ;)

A very interesting idea. The physics/collision got to be a bit wonky but I love the Kafka homage.

it seems like a sadly story and have a high rhythm(rushed whole journey!) otherwise,i think this music's choose is mainly for enhence and conform this core experience? food are less and less, body/heart more and more broken and hungry... i feel this music not broke the ambient but instead mix it to a new level(just build a unique experience) only the text-visual rhythm is too quick( fexp between two different level) ....but it also promote to keep my high speed feeling(flow)...really unique and cannot confirm, however i think if when game is long,then have some curve maybe more good~
fianlly,i think i would like to read this book in future,also hope to know this BGM's name, really like it..want to listen more other music from this album,thanks alot.
