I finally got to play this game, and I really enjoyed it! It reminded me a lot of "Sofia?" and "Confess My Love", and the soundtrack gave me some serious "Stranger Things" vibes. I really liked the artwork and the story, as well as the explanation for the time-loop, and for your co-worker's attitude towards you killing her over and over again. I'm definitely looking forward to Kathinka's next game, because I honestly enjoy her games.
"Confess My Love" is a free game on Steam. I'm not going to spoil anything major about it, so I'm just going to say that it is a really good game, that it is not what it initially seems to be, and that you should play it when you're able. It is another game where you have to get all of the other endings to get the true ending, and it doesn't take long to beat the game, although you may need a guide to get all of the endings.
I think I've watched an LP a long time ago (no idea from who tho), because I waa thinking of that game while making this... But I just couldn't remember what it's called TvT
So thanks for telling me, I'll def replay that game once I have the time :3
Just uploaded this game to my channel. I liked it a lot. The style is awesome. Its basic but yet so good. I highly recommend trying it! Here's my video if interested in watching...Also, i put your game and page link in my description
This is really good, down to the music, I loved this game before I opened it. The style, though black and white, really works with the game. Such a great job in making it! I'm eager to play more of your games!
Thank you so much for your LP!! It was super fun to watch! Your reactions to the events happening are very entertaining UvU (Moreover I really appreciate you pointing out all the bugs! I'm gonna fix them tomorrow!)
Also, I'm very happy to hear that you like my art style <3 Always super cool to hear!
The fact that you also opened the game after the true end... Actually, I did want to put a lil epilog there, but I didn't have the time TvT Totally gonna write that soon haha
AAAHHHH I LOVE IT. that was so dark compared to your last adventure i love it. Very macabre. i liked the time loop explanation, very reminiscent of Sophia? by Hatoge. Great Job once again dudette :3
Ahhhh thank you!!!!! It was not only darker, but also edgier haha... I felt like such an edgelord writing this XD
And now that you mention it, you're right!! I haven't played Sofia? in so long, I forgot about the time-loop aspect xD I was too traumatized by the corpse-pit lmaoo
ooooooof the corpse pit. Bad memory but a good band name lol. But yeah corpse pit or no i think you were extremely successful in the edge department for this one. i felt extremely disconcerted by the subject matter and imagery. Despite their simplicity the death scenes and their descriptions were super gruesome, yet the art was still super cute. It just felt WRONG, like they shouldn’t work together but they totally did ;3 so Game Jam successful
Once again Kathinka, you have done it! Another great game with beautiful characters design and a plot twist at the end that made me feel some type of way, almost crying at Olivia's dialogue in the true ending.
Also, this game could have a prequel concentrating in both characters and their relationship, why Olivia wanted to reach THAT goal. It could be interesting tbh.
Thank you very much! I'm super glad to see that you liked this game :D Olivia's a chara, that's kinda naive and well-meaning, but her dependence on Ellen is v unhealthy... Both are flawed charas (and I feel like I couldn't show that as well here... I had to rush the ending sadly TvT)
Also that would be interesting, but I don't think I'll ever do a prequel to this game (because this game is a prequel to another game idea I have lol), but I'll keep this in mind should I ever remake this game! These are really interesting things to think about^^
Ka i'm already become a fan of yours, your beatiful style of drawing is a great feature of all your games. Mmm this game was a gamble with all dark context. For a JAM game it's definitely a good game but (at least for me) it's not your best work.
It didn't cacth me like "You and me" (And it's not for the murder plot or something like that. I like game like these too). Maybe an different progression of events. A more puzzeling way to make the murders, more details which cacth your attetion betweeen loops (Problaly do not go back to the main screen between loops would be a wise desition). And the true end ... had to be shocking, emotional. Reflexive IDK something which let you feel something. And the feeling who left me was "...Oh ok".
I don't try to be rude with you. I know is a game which was develop in a pretty short amount of time, and with that in mind is a good work. As your fan i want to provide you with another kind of feedback.
PD: I am studing web development and learning HTML,CSS,JS React . Beside to work i want to use this skills to develop games... To be like you, it was the main reason for i came here because you develop a web version of your games (Hope i draw so well like you someday). I going to make a game soon, when i finish it i will show it to you
Don't worry, you didn't come of as rude! You're allowed to have your own opinion, but I appreciate that you were so nice about it^^
I kinda agree with you though... I also think that this game is not as good as "You&Me"! Especially the ending... I rewrote the ending for Y&M several times until I was satisfied, but here I went with like the secound draft TvR
Tbh I have a lot to say on my issues with the writing of this game, but I don't wanna dump all of that on you, so I'll hold back xD
This game was mostly just me trying to write darker content, which was pretty fun! But I also felt like a huge edgelord haha
More puzzeling deaths do sound interesting, but who knows with what I can come up x'D
The main menu between the loops was partly how I interpreted the theme of the jam & a way to highlight the "time-loop"-nature of the game^^ So I'd reather keep it in (It's fine if you didn't lime it though)
Do you have any other feedbacks for this game? :oc If I remade/patch this game I'd like to consider the things you said :3
i loved it ! a GOOD JOB INDEED on your behalf ! :D i hope you enjoy the vid and dont mind my anime weirdness coming out with stupid commentary jokes :D
ok now i'm curious! first thing first good job this was an amazing expirience i really enjoyied it! but there's a thing that still bugs me.....what about the safe with 2 number to input on the protagonist room?
Great game, surprised the way the game went, I was really expecting some traumatic end for Ellen. Especially after everything she did, it felt like karma was not balanced out. I am surprised there are so many different ways you can kill someone in the office. I was trying to go for the window, thought that may be an answer.
Great game and cannot wait to play what you make next.
KATHINKA IM INSANE THIS IS DEFINITELY UR BEST ONE SO FAR . Im obsessed w ur writing and the story in this one was so interesting ++++ Love the way u did the tilesets in this one very cool ^^ imma leave a jam review too one sec
I'm suuuper happy that you liked the writing (I feel very selfconscious about that)!! Also I didn't really use tilesets this time... I used the parallax-feature cuz I hate doing tilesets TvT
loved this game!! it was so fun getting all the different endings, and i loved how they were all connected!!!! definitely trying out some of your other games rn :))
Hahaha, love the title drop x'D Also the first line in your description... Yeah you may be right with that x'D
Also if I saw correctly, I think the only ending you're missing is Dead End 2? For that you just have to take the scissors and interact twice with the big packet.

Thank you so much for your kind feedback :D I'm very happy to hear that you liked this game, too!!
I know Sofia? (which is a v good game), but I've never heard of Confess Your Love... Is that a game on itchio?

they are both extremely adorable and they deserve the world :')
great game, wish the idea and world was expanded more though, still, nice!
and mmmm lesbians
Yeah that's just the game jam-format :') Maybe I'll remake this game one day tho haha
And yes ofc <3
The story in this was amazing. It was a psychological horror game with heart. Keep it up!
Great game, loved the story and gameplay, didnt expect to enjoy murdering my poor coworker, created a account just to follow you!
Oh how sweet!! I'm glad you liked the murdering part! (just don't do that irl haha)
Well i played it..

P.S. That's so cool!! I also had some lessons on that, but that was long ago haha
But I'd love to see your game one day :D
i loved it ! a GOOD JOB INDEED on your behalf ! :D i hope you enjoy the vid and dont mind my anime weirdness coming out with stupid commentary jokes :D
I'm glad that you liked it!! Don't worry, your commentary was v funny - I enjoyed it xD
Also, your theory at the end was pretty spot on ^^ Tho Ellen agreed to the immortality-thing because she wanted to help/please her lover :o
ok now i'm curious! first thing first good job this was an amazing expirience i really enjoyied it! but there's a thing that still bugs me.....what about the safe with 2 number to input on the protagonist room?
zurückgesetzt?
Good on u for trying out 69 lmao
The explanation is in the comment above u :3c
Whoops I accidentally left that in!
It was my way for resetting (zurückgesetzt in german) the variables, so I could playtest the game^^
Great game and cannot wait to play what you make next.
Thank you very much!! I liked your LP, too^^
Well, Ellen would definitely deserve that, but to her luck Olivia doesn't care that much lmao
And thanks, I hope you'll also like my other games ^^
