Creator's Note
Hi all!
This is the first game I've ever created and it's mainly to test out the software's mechanics, so the plot isn't super fleshed out. You may be left with questions at the end, and that's perfectly alright because I too have questions. There were a lot of things I wanted to add in but I don't have the skills/time/energy to do so now. Additionally, I need more feedback on the current stage of things. I will definitely be creating a remake in the future with a more developed plot, better art, and smoother gameplay.
Nevertheless, I hope you'll enjoy the puzzles! Feel free to post a playthrough of this, but please post the link in the comments below.
If anyone's curious about what exactly inspired this story, do let me know too and I'll edit it in hahaha.

The game mentions a poem on a post-it. However, there are no post-its to be found, let alone one with a poem on it.
I also don't know what the pity hint means. Is it for the missing letters?
Hi Dorkfishie, thank you for giving this game a try! Really appreciate it :)
Oh yes, that really slipped my mind. Thank you for pointing it out! Previously the gameboy item was a post-it but I changed it to be more interactive so that the answer can be typed in and checked if it's correct. I will make the changes accordingly in the dialogue.
As for the pity hint, it's more of a replacement clue for the hangman. I will refine the dialogue so that it will be more straightforward and make more sense. Once I've made these changes, I will let you know.
If you see any more mistakes or leaps of logics in the game, please feel free to point them out and I will do my best to amend them. This is the first time I've ever made any sort of game or puzzle so sometimes I get trapped in my own logic bubble ❤︎
Oh, yeah, I forgot to mention this! The book No Longer Human has a page select like the correct book does. I don't think that should happen.. (EDIT: I think this has to do with the new dialogue for the hint?)
Also, for some reason, there's an "EzLink Card" in the inventory, even though there's nothing that uses it?
Ah yes, I did that on purpose >< Because my friends said that since the player can technically brute force their way into figuring out the right book, I should throw in a red herring to make it a bit more difficult haha
I've made the changes with your OG comments in mind :) Thank you for waiting!
Congrats on releasing your first game! Looking forward to more of your work!
