I loved it. I got ending B, then played again to see ending A. Very nice atmosphere, unnerving at some times and endearing at others. The art, music and graphics are great and go well together. Great job <3
Honestly loved it ! Visuals were great (the color palette especially, it made the game look really vibrant and almost comfy, despite the themes), music was really catchy, and the story was really cool to follow. Awesome stuff ! <3
The art was really pleasant to look at and gave off such a peaceful vibe (In stark contrast with the plot, ironically). The plot twist was a little obvious to me, but overall enjoyed the villain perspective and the adorable dynamic between Magnolia and Mint. Overall, very cute characters and art style with a semi-engaging plotline.
i got ending A!! i loved it so much this is amazing really!! more people need to know this, this isnt boring at all the art is nice, mint is adorable, the music? amazing, this is a 10/10
I got Ending A. I love that even though the game is short, there's a story behind it that brings the current situation to life. As you play, you understand the severity of what's going on, and Mint! What a twist! Great story. Definitely recommend downloading and playing for yourself if you haven't done so already!
puchi, thanks for the clues, you can now open the mint diary, although I didn't really think it was to remove a zeropuchi, thanks for the clues, you can now open the mint diary, although I didn't really think it was to remove a zero
This game is an absolute delight. Musically, visually, and storywise its a complete package. I really can't wait to see more. There is so much heart and character put into this incredible game. I loved walking around the house and learning all the little tidbits. It was a completely different feeling than Silver Thread, another great game you made that's so worth checking out! You have a gift when it comes to storytelling.
SPOILERS-----------
Playing through this, the murders were so shocking, I couldn't believe this was the main character we play as- it's really unique!! Magnolia is such a layered character. I feel like the story was really unpredictable and fun. The endings are both so different and leave you wanting more. Like what happened to Mint after Dove took him in? Where did Magnolia go all this time? I have so many questions that I'm so excited to find out about!
The amount of work put into this game is amazing! Beautiful graphics, unique soundtrack, intriguing and gripping storyline, dark humour and great characters!
There's a glitch where Mint keeps following you during the murder if you walk to the bathroom instead of his room, and then in the Mint flashback you will be carrying the body, and then for the rest of the game it will have the flashback camera affect.
I finally got the chance to play this game after seeing and gushing about it to my friends! I loved the story, the art and the vibe in general. I'm looking forward to seeing how you expand upon the story and the game as a whole. I think so far, it's a pretty damn good game. I'm looking forward to playing your other game, next!
There's a glitch in which Mint will witness the second murder (if you keep trying to walk to the bathroom instead of taking him to his room). He'll then continue walking behind you for the rest of the game
About Mint's diary/notebook, I went into Magnolia's room, on the table are drawings Mint made for her, the numbers on the top one are 58 and 4, do you put the numbers in 584 or 458 or is there a number somewhere where I'm not looking? Also, in Ending B where Dove takes care of Mint and Mint goes back to the house, I need the date (passcode) for the basement door, also, is the door to the stairs to the basement supposed to be blocked off and unable to go through after you go to the basement?
There is a chance you probably know this already but both of the passwords are their birthdays (Magnolia and Mint's), to not reveal too much and spoil the fun I'm just going to say that you can find out both of their birth dates by exploring the house thoroughly.
5 seconds of gameplay and there is already a dead body, good storylines, and love the screams. on the sceen where the child was getting mad at me for leaving without his bedtime story i decided to stay because i thought that mint was gonna kill me. good game
Loved the story, I went through the game twice just to see both endings. The cold stoic responses felt so much more fitting for the character, even though both endings did feel heart warming. I did love the story, I may have got too into character hunting the intruders, though one problem I had was at the beginning with the walkie talkie, on my first playthrough I did not realise who I was playing as
Really good game, look forward to what you create next.
Wow, this game was a delight to play! Your art is very pleasing to the eye, and unique. Love all the details of the house you included. The color scheme is charming, and the music is wonderful — really suits the vibes. I really like the character designs and expressions! Magnolia and Dove… pretty……..anyway. I love your character writing, and the sense of humor you’ve written into Magnolia’s narration.
(SPOILERS) Love the complexity of Magnolia’s character! For example, I really loved when Magnolia said that motherhood is a reward in itself, and how she likes Mint’s drawings… even though they are of questionable quality, it’s the care that he puts into them for her that counts. How she treasures each day spent with her son, knowing that the time they’ll be able to spend together is ticking down. Still, she takes care of unwanted guests without hesitation, and takes down anyone in her way without remorse. A++ duality 9/9. Also, and the conflict in ethics/ideals between her and Dove is interesting: what if we were narrative foils (and we were both women.) Their differences are too great for them to overcome, though, so I get that it’s better for them to go different ways. (SPOILER END)
I love all the flavor text and CGs. The tissues and the blocks, for example, and the alchemy combined with science. Those little details + the diary entries are so fun to read. Mint’s diary entries… cute, haha. I was very excited to unravel the mystery of it all, and the plot twists were thrilling to read! I was not expected That expression from Mint……man. Scary…. That moment when you feel like you’ve become a bad influence to your (fictional) son. T_T Sorry, Mint…. I also love callback to the introduction at ending B, too. ........... Oh no, I'm sorry.. this comment is becoming insanely long. Also, if the spoilers are too evident feel free to delete this....!! Looking forward to seeing more!

I wish I could play this game for the first time once again. It's right up my alley.
Honestly loved it ! Visuals were great (the color palette especially, it made the game look really vibrant and almost comfy, despite the themes), music was really catchy, and the story was really cool to follow. Awesome stuff ! <3
Hello, I use a mac so I can't download the Windows version. I've been trying to play on the browser but I can't interact with it :(
I've tried using Safari and Firefox. Is there something I'm doing wrong?
If you can't click on anything, the arrow keys move and z is interact. Does that help? If not, try with chrome or internet explorer

I got ending B!! I really loved the story <3
how do you get B
Oh, I already forgot. I think to surrender? I really can't remember.
Engaging narrative! Nice that you gave a human perspective to the villain, her relationship with her son is an interesting contrast.
