I wished I could escape...

Is  what Nat is thinking. They are  dreaming to go to the beach.

Unfortunatelly, it looks like    Nat is stuck: unable to transition or to success their studies. But still, dreaming doesn't hurt, doesn't it?



I'm stuck

In their room,  Nat deals with pressure and shattered dreams.  The future  is dark and looks too   incertain  to allow  Nat to project themselves.  But  maybe a bit of  imagination could help them.

This was a lovely read, the ending surprised me! Great work <3

Really, really lovely art and such a clever use of the jam limitation. The ending is surprising and wonderful. Wish that could have happened to me during the pandemic!

Suggestion: I think it could have been written with a little more dialogue to break up the internal monologue. For example, a teacher line saying "Are you listening?" I like the internal monologue but I do think it would be nicer in shorter sections.

Everything in this is excellent! The direction and writing is fantastic and I love the creative use of the one background. :D

Thank you  and I'm glad you liked it! ^^

I loved everything about this!! Great presentation and the subject matter was handled really well

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it! :)

A lovely little game, good horror vibes and a relatable protagonist :>

I'm glad you liked it! :)
