Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
30 of 116 sampled reviews raised it
In all honesty, I think it’s a really cool idea: make a game that’s short and sweet and, more importantly, sets out to achieve the goal it advertises, a goal that, amidst its simplicity, actually manages to tell a fun little story with various endings to achieve, and may even get a few giggles out of people.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
9 of 116 sampled reviews raised it
Though not all of the assets are unique there are a few specific details that show the effort put into crafting the environment such as the different shapes you can turn the blood/paint splatter into or the different portraits for Isabel while wearing the two available costumes which stood out to me.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
9 of 116 sampled reviews raised it
It has a good sense of humor, I didn't notice any bugs, and the art style for the character portraits is quite nice.
