Such a wonderful game!! Made me feel so sad yet so hopeful <333
THANK YOUUUU I'm so glad you like iiiittt <333333
A short game that conveys a lot of things, I loved it. just amazing work.
Yay a Brazilian playthough!!! (I'm Brazilian, too hehe). I'm honestly impressed that you got this out so soon, thank you so much for playing my game! <3
This is such a great game !
I have some trouble achieving the third ending though... I've tried multiple combination of choices, so I'm guessing I have to do something really specific, but I can't seem to get it. May I ask for a hint ?
The endings I already achived are (SPOILER WARNING) the first one where you stay in bed and the second one where you return to your room after saying "you don't have the courage to change"
Oh I'm so glad you like it!! What you need to do to achieve the third ending is you have to interact with everything until you run out of dialogue! If I'm correct that would be 5 for the ceiling light, 3 for the character pictures, 7 for the light switch, then 4 for the post-it notes in the bathroom! <3 (I'll be posting an ending guide in a bit I think)
YAYYYYY I LOVED THIS GAME SOOOO MUCH ITS SO BEAUTIFUL!!!!
THANK YOUUUU <333
