It took me some seconds to understand what to do. I like your take on the theme "doomscrolling to the depths" and the illustrations are great. Maybe it would be cooler if the next image came in, when you click the heart (and it is not wrong). That would speed up the game and would get me even more in a tunnel. Overall very cool concept mood!

love this interpretation of the theme. the illustrations are actually amazing. took me a minute to figure out the core gameplay, mostly my own fault. crazy that you did the music all by yourself too. 10/10 captions. great entry!

This game just oozes style!! You did a great job on the music and the art, and the flame particle effects and filters just tied it all together

It would be nice if the controls were a bit less fiddly - swiping with the mouse felt a bit unwieldy, and was the main thing keeping me from truly getting into the flow of things. Adding keyboard controls or on-screen buttons would make it way better IMO. Bet it would work great with touch controls, though

Lovely entry, thanks for the game!!

WOW, you are an artist! It is crazy how well you draw, play music... I'm super jealous to be honest! Also the concept is very good, doom scrolling is has indeed depths, sometimes too deep right?

Incredible, seriously, respect!

Really interesting game! Love the art style and music! It took me a while to realize you can scroll, so maybe adding some (blinking) arrows would be a good idea, or I'm just dumb :D Well done!

Atmospheric game art, music and vfx! Cudos! Took me a while to realize how to scroll. Interesting I've seen another doomscroll game, but focused on texting.
