The ending just kills all the lightheaded gameplay that precedes it...
Can I download the game or is it now browser only?
Hi Jerryii, sorry at the moment it is only availabe to play in browser.
Hi! I tried to download to play on my Mac, but it said the game is damaged and won't open. Any tips on if there's a work around? I'd like to check it out and support, but can't currently play. Thanks!
I'm sorry hear about this, I also find this problem on my mac, this is how i solve it - https://www.howtogeek.com/803598/app-is-damaged-and-cant-be-opened/
Belated reply but thank you for this! I think I wound up buying it off steam. I recall playing and enjoying it.
Last Christmas Walkthrough
Thank you for creating and sharing the playthrough.
Awesome title, really enjoyed it
Solid 8/10 game
Thank you for playing our game, and we are glad you enjoyed it.
Um, wow. That took a bit of a turn now, didn't it?
Note: I seemed to be stuck irrevocably if I placed the cassette player before the extension cord
Yes, it did. We ought to consider a stronger warning or more of a build up within the story to soften the shock value in a future update.
Thanks for the report, I think that bug is fixed in download versions, but original Web version was left up for voting purposes, it will be updated once voting period is over.
That wasn't a complaint. I thought it was brilliant, actually. (Heck, it still got to me on the 5th playthrough). You might want to put up a warning on the page at least, for those who are really sensitive to those things. Although that would probably be a good idea, it actually saddens me a bit that that might ruin the surprise.
The game was really good. I got all endings. Keep up the good work.
Watch video here:
Thank you for playing!
That ending really got me. Very fun and well written adventure game. Keep up the great work!
Thank you for the comment and playthrough!
The ending just... it just shakes you to the core. This was definitely the most shocking AdvJam22 entry I played. :)
Thank you so much for playing our game, great playthrough! And hope you recover from the shock, it's all just a little food for thought... :)
I'm seeking therapy as we speak. :) I need to play something with puppies jumping around on snow.
Ooh, excellent idea for our next game! :-D
This game gave me a few chills. Good job!
Thank you for the playthrough video, just subscribed!
whoa! great entry!
really a good job for 2 weeks of work.
Shining reference are awesome!
Thank you! Well, who could resist a Shining reference :-)
Game is really great :-) - can I have an hint? what do I need to fix the hole? (I've "wine" ready but I can't cook till I fix that)
After that I'm still missing a couple of things - so far anyway I've loved it
Thank you! Inventory is a bit buggy, you may need to press arrows a few times to reveal items hidden on second page. Maybe you already picked it up. More spoilers below:

What would you normally use to fix a hole in the pipe, and where would you find such an item?
Wait, only Mac download? :O
It's up now :)
Yay!
