i liked it! did some fun things, especially a part in a later area that made me smile. i feel Pikasprey's own letsplay that i consulted to find a particular key was so sharply critical on himself for a game that i found really charming and wasn't bored by at all. sound design is worth mentioning with very organic touches only heightened by the lack of any bgm whatsoever outside of chase sequences, i do just wish there was more puzzle content that wasn't simply reading notes.

i have no interest in the remake as i found its design at a glance to be far too busy and didn't mesh with the detailed sprites, as well as being content with this experience as is. rpgmaker horror continues to be a large comfort in bad times.
