Wow, that was intense, definitely have been one of those people laying awake at 4am at several points in my life.
The art style feels sufficiently raw and fits the message a lot. The droning sound/music was great in building the oppressive athmosphere.
I thought about delving into more dark topics myself for my jam submission, but decided to keep the tone overall a bit more on the lighter, satirical side instead (with only some implied darkness on a game over). This hits hard, in all its short simplicity, and I mean that as a compliment!
Good work!
EDIT: Taking another second to think of some productive feedback - the background track did not loop properly for me. Now, that isn't easy to do, so don't think of it as damning criticism, but it is one thing I can think of that could enhance it further.
I'm very glad to hear that I've managed to deliver the message properly, that was my main goal really. About the loop you're right, I've been doing the background music at the very last, that's why I probably forgot about looping it properly. But since you've mentioned it, I'll make sure to change that asap!
This is the first ever visual novel I've actually made fully on my own, that's why I would be so gratefull to hear some feedback from you guys. It would not only make me happy but also help me a lot to improve!
