Really fun game, and also surprisingly challenging lol, decided to do a short playthrough and post on youtube, Congrats on first place! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC81SImIj53NmLMrIXvBsACw

I just finished watching it - you were literally on the last bit of dialogue before you would’ve won the game 😭😭 we’re definitely gonna make some adjustments difficulty-wise. Thank you for playing & sharing your playthrough, we really appreciate it!! :)
