I'm really sorry my experience was very confused. Graphics were unclear and did not help me to understand what was going on, or what i was supposed to do. Also there are lots of text and it didn't feel like i could really have an impact on the story despite the multiple choices. I think the game needs to take more time to introduce characters and story. Not understanding what the game wanted to tell me was my main concern. Good luck on your next projects !

I liked it, the story was pretty confusing at times but I think I got most of it.

The graphics were nice but I felt that they were at times a bit unclear, still, nice game :)

Slight graphical error with text appearing over the main text box, but otherwise, very fun aeasthetic, kinda feels 'choose your own adventure' inspired. Great work!

I enjoyed playing this, it reminded me o the old text adventures like Zork! I liked the idea of the story. There were a couple of things that might need looking at.

1) Some of the text seems to repeat which breaks a bit of the story a bit.
2) The name on the dialogue seems to have moved down on my screen covering the image but that might just be my browser.
3) I got the what i believe is the final room but the Demon King killed me and called me a liar but then i was unable to start from the beginning again. It would be nice if there were a Reset button to go back to the beginning or the last decision.

I really like these graphics! It felt very nostalgic for me. I like where this seemed to be going with the theme—getting trapped deeper & deeper in a lie. One thing that I found confusing was that it seems like the game wasn't sure whether it wanted to be a story game with some action-adventure gameplay or an action-adventure game with some story weaved in. Maybe if it were built out a bit further that would become clear? Anyway, thanks for making this lil' guy!

Nice little text adventure. The story was a bit unclear at first but I've got a firmer grasp of it on repeated playthroughs.

Tip: you may want to let players know there is a web build by putting a link to it on this page. 9Though the web build seems to have more graphical errors).

Almost no gameplay but tons of text . I am lying bad in front of boss.
Perhaps, it is bad ending. I am not sure if there is any good ending.
