Created for the 82nd bitsy jam "intentionally bad".
Mashing through the text sometimes softlocks? Weird dropped inputs methinks but I ain't fixing it.

It's wonderfuly weird, I love it! It reminds me some games displayed on https://oujevipo.fr/ (sorry everything is in french, but you can still find some games, and even some Bitsy games)
***Spoilers ahead***
This game is made for the intentionally bad game jam, wanted to do something simple for my first game. Just finished DS3 (can you tell) so this game is partly powered by that fugue, partly by the weird little text-based games I played growing up (peek "A Dark Room" by Amir Rajan if you haven't). There's a certain clarity with simplicity and for me at least my favorite memories of games are of something almost ritualistic and totally absorbing. The game speaks for itself on a lot of this so I wont say to much more... go play and stop reading!
I love the atmosphere of this! the darkness part got me blindly pressing like I truly am lost in the forest at night, the writing's so nice and poetic, too!
i love the way the choices were displayed in this :) the writing also flowed really nicely!
Thanks! Its my first time trying out bitsy and this style of game :))
