Meddlesome Reflection
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
Plot:
Your boss has about 170,791 daily tasks, she's so busy she even started resurrecting the dead to help her.
You are one of those little helpers, one problem though there is a very strict law in the universe that: NOTHING EVER COMES BACK FROM DEATH.
To get around this hard rule, your boss wipes the memories of her corpsy workers, so they don't actually know who they are, only their tasks:
Go to where she sends you and note down all death that has happened there.
Short and simple narrative based point and click horror game made in RenPy for the:
Spooktober 6th Annual Visual Novel Jam.
Content warning: Gore on the level you see in the screenshots. Some bad language here and there as the main character gets scared.
Credits:
All of it was done in Notepad, Audacity and Krita. By me ATinyLittleCloud
A full credit list for all the tutorials and sound effects used are in a credit file in the gamedir.
Thank you Spooktober for letting a scrub like me take part and have a nice month everyone!
Updated once: I added more rooms and started dabbling with sprites.
Depending on feel, next update I either remove them or add them to all scenes.
Updated twice: Added sprites to all scenes.
started to focus in on the writing and added one more ending.
Updated trice: Two more rooms and now the ending makes more sense.

nice game!!
the only critique I have for it is that there's no mystery for the player to solve (which is kinda sad for a game cantered around crime-scene investigation)
the art is surprisingly expressive for a first game? tho the black&white pallet made it harder to read things that aren't bloody
7.6/10
Thank you for the nice review mop! :)
I'm gonna polish this all the way up to the end of the month. Perhaps that could turn that 7.5 into a 7.6 :D
Say less ;)
Never done horror before... Never done anything, I learned a lot but, will I use it? It also exhausted me, writing kinetic is so much easier.
