Please note: there is an option to play a lighter version "Start (Light)" in the main menu - this reduces the amount of animations thus saving your computer from getting too stressed out.

Android version now available - it will need to be sideloaded. Please note: the game wasn't designed for mobile.
Dev note: I made this pretty much solo - which is quite the challenge! It's my 4th game jam, marking around 12 months since my first released project.
Feedback of any kind is always appreciated (here, twitter or LSF - wherever!)

If you get a windows smartscreen type message just choose "run anyway"
You may need to look at the 'more' or 'advanced' options if your operating system or anti-virus filter prevent you from saving or running the files. The game was coded by myself using the ren'py engine, so I know there are no viruses etc.

what an interesting experience!
Thanks for playing ^^
I got to the point where it booted me to the main menu, I can only presume that is the "End" of the game. This game is quite interesting and I had quite a bit of fun playing it.
oo glad to hear it's been fun!
Erm I think you'll get to the credits before it ends for real!
Okay, when I first started to replay it looked the same so I didn't think it carried over, just replayed it and got to the credits.
