CW: Brief themes and mentions of death and missing children. 

A short, text-based experience made in a couple days for the DISCODEVS Game Jam 2026, inspired by the theme Thresholds.

This is a draft/prototype, not a finished game. I'm hoping to keep working on it in the coming weeks, but in the spirit of submitting something, here it is. The main goal was just to get the concept out of my head and onto the page.

Right now it's more story than game. I haven't playtested it, so I honestly don't know if it runs cleanly start to finish. There are some real issues with the design and consistency of the story that I'm aware of, but hey, that's what editing is for. Enjoy it for what it is, and follow me if you want to be updated about the final game.
