I really like the artistic choice and the atmosphere.

We did a similar game about Alzheimer's! Loved the piano song in your game, would totally just listen to it on repeat. Great artwork as well :smile: If you try our game, let us know what you think :smile:

Excellent job, everyone! I know some of the stuff below are repeats of what I already said in person, but I hope you find the following feedback useful:

I do think that for the most part, the progression of the story is smooth and believable, though a bit compressed. The presentation is excellent, with the sketchy penciling heightening the tension, and music that uses unconventional instruments. I do appreciate the majority of the character dynamics, but there's a line with Quinn that makes her sound like a Mary Sue (the "Nelly thinks she's helping, but she's really not" part), or at least a sudden and uncharacteristic author-insert. And while neither of these problems are immersion breaking, I managed to find a typo and a bug while pursuing all the bad endings (because I'm a jerk).

For the typo, in the scene where you go to Quinn's party without a therapist's help, Quinn suddenly starts referencing themselves in third-person (was she secretly a cartoon villain this entire time!?):


For the bug, right after choosing "You're right" when Nelly confronts you in Quinn's party...


...well...


This was interesting. Presentation is very nice from the art to the audio. I empathized with my character as someone who has felt this way in the past. Something interactive like this would be good to have in clinics rather than a doctor asking you between 1-10 how anxious you feel everyday. Good work team. I'm impressed.

Really well done game!

I'm on the same team as @mister-kweh, and we were happy to see another group tackle something similar to us (different topics, but similar mood/tone/presentation).

I really liked how yours had options that led to different scenarios. I actually played through a few times because I was curious how the other responses would turn out. Our team had planned on doing something similar, but we weren't able to squeeze it in with the limited time.

I'm very impressed you were able to make such a unique game, especially with the varying situations.

Also, thanks for checking out our game :)

Interesting and captivant.

Great take on the theme!

We fixed the game breaking bugs and added a new version (1.1) and a Change Log to the site. Thanks, @omiya-games !

Loved the pencil drawings! I liked going through the scenarios and seeing how my character and others would respond. It did feel a little rushed, and the session with the therapist felt more informative than necessarily relational (though that may be my personal preference). With games on a particular subject, could be cool to show it to a subject matter expert and see if they have any helpful feedback or suggestions if you already haven't done so. Nice job and keep up the good work!

Very good game ! I like the way you talk about agoraphobia ! Hope you will get your 20 votes, i gonna try to share the game ;)

Great game! Very cool and interesting! :D

Wow! I am not a fan of dialogue games but this topic kept me interested to the end. The art style stands out compared to most other games here and one other thing that impressed me a lot was the menu system, that looked super professional!

One of the best games I've ever play in LD's since LD#32 (my first LD). I really love this kind of narratives. I suffer from panic syndrome but i like to talk about many other mental illness. I've made a game about depression and suicide on LD41 (https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/710166). It would be nice make a game with you someday. Get in touch if you're interested (contact@bioszard.com). Congratulations.

It's quite hard to see the narrative-based games that discuss some serious problems on these jams.
You've done a great job, The game is very interesting!
