It felt a bit slow however so a bit faster player speed would be appreciated. I assume the slow speed is the point but it just felt monotonous. The sprite work was fine but some art design was durastically better than others. The character was well drawn but his home didn't have compression turned off in Unity.

YOU NAILED IT.\n\nStill, the audio was cool (But I guess you opted out of audio ratings?), and the character animation was cool. The \"cutscene video\" is morbid as hell, and really ups the \"mood\" factor.\n\nI'm not quite clear on the character's \"job\", though. Pick up a package and take it home? Is he a drug dealer?
