I’m retroactively moving the itch release and first update changelogs to this post to avoid cluttering the game description.

The first game demo was released for Josei jam on June 30th, followed by a quick update on July 2nd. In this version, you play as Patricia, subscribe to an escape game playtesting and solve the first puzzle.

Known issues:

• First 7 scenes
• Puzzle 1

Known issues:

• Linux build shows black texture instead of empty avatar faces
• no macOS build
