Additional props for the graphics and audio - maybe not spooky enough to fit the mood, but atmospheric in its own right!
As for the game, the only issue I had is 20 seconds of trying to figure out what to do. Highlighting the inventory spaces when you "hold" in item would solve this issue for me. Other than that, it's quite polished, if short. The graphics and sounds are very good, the gameplay is probably not my cup of tea, but it is much more unusual than many games on this jam :D
Note: the sounds may be too loud! I jumped out of the surprise when I started.

Loved the art style and writing. The overall mood was on-point.
Audio was **very** loud, had to turn it down to ~2% to get it to comfortable levels.
Great work, loved it! <3
It took me some time to figure out what to do at first. And I am not sure I spent my time running things as effectively as I could, but I ended up getting out with 2900 points.
I had no qualms with the audio, seemed fine on my end. The music itself didn't really fit with the vibe I was getting from the visuals and dialogue, though.
All in all, very nice!
