that sirens in that world are not innocent lambs, they are predators and really eat people. For them it's natural, it's a sacred ritual, the way to celebrate life. For people it's natural to think of them as monsters. There are no "good guys" and "bad guys" in the story. Again, sorry i made you feel bad. I probably should add some content warnings, but it always feels like spoiling the only intrigue about the game...
oh no no I thought it was a lovely little game!! I loved the atmosphere and the art was super cute its more just... I didn't expect it to be this way lol I thought it was kinda gonna end like a girl was singing and the siren kills her. So when I saw the stero my heart dropped because I was like oh no! It was a trap!! But then again like you said they're no good guys or bad guys. But seeing everything from the sirens view does make it a little more heart wrenching 💔
glad you liked it💙 Especially the art - i don't really have any talent for that😅
I also feel bad for Nerris - she was totally clueless about what happened...
This really was short, but also so tragic!! I love how Nerris seemed so carefree and curious. I really like the character design, especially her sparkly eyes and colorful hair! I also liked the art pieces in the game like the whale and speakers.
The shock I felt near the end- I was like "OH NO!!! ): " so, I think this definitely fits the horror aspect in a kind of heartbreaking way; especially since Nerris only just awoke! </3
This made me eager for more- i know it's a gamejam entry, but I think you have a solid enough foundation for a sequel/followup game with this! :3 Congrats on the release!!
Thank you🖤
You know. I kinda forgot that it was a horror game until the end. Nice job
Thank you! yes, i wanted it to be completely peaceful... until it's not😈
Short and sweet! Or rather... sour?
Great job :)
and also bitter:>
