Wowsers! What a ride. That was seriously awesome. Loved the interactivity too. My memory is so bad, I had to write down those numbers! Ha, ha, ha. Loved the art. The writing and story was so engaging. Clever concept and brilliantly executed. Well done!
Tysm for playing the game! And don’t say that you’re definitely not alone! When I was playtesting it, I kept having to check the script just to remember which number to dial. And I STILL managed to mess up one of the phone numbers in the code lmao.
I had so much fun going through the different numbers. I love the interactivity in this one. Sadly, there was one ending I couldn't get -- couldn't figure out the "dial love in an emergency" bit but overall the story was so good
Oh my gosh, thank you for your feedback and thank you so much for enjoying this story!

Well... "LOVE" should correspond to 5683 on the keypad (Jesse's extension - the smoky-voiced man), but I just realized I accidentally kept 5682 in the game code. I can't believe I missed that!
I'll try to update the script next week when I have time. Currently, you can get this ending by having the girl arrive on scene, checking the phone card, but before dialing 444, directly dialing 5682.(n
Tysm for your feedback!!!!!!
Thanks for the tip! Typos can be so hard to spot sometimes ;v;
My completionist heart can now rest happy with all five endings <3
this was interesting! Also I love the artstyle ^^
Tysm! I’m really glad you found the concept interesting! It means a lot to hear feedback like this. <3
