I am only still in the beginning of the game (which I sort of stumbled upon by accident) but have to commend you for the writing, I'm quite intrigued and very curious where this story will go. Good job so far! *continues playing*

Thank you so much for the nice comment! Hope you enjoyed it.

Although quite short it was an.. Interesting experience to say the least. 10/10 would play another game of yours if given the chance but yea great storytelling. 

Thanks so much delusive!
