homage/blatant ripoff of a few of everythingstaken's dating-ish games, like brother's sister's
done as practice for future things, with the system to go in between screens.
this current system is horrible, but through making this, i gained a better understanding, && realized i could do something a lot easier that would probably work better
shift/enter to interact
arrow keys to move
mouse to do the stuff with the dialog boxes

Made For: 
An event

thanks! that was a bug that i had no idea how to fix and i thought it was interesting in a weird way, so i left it in. if you liked this at all and you didn't play this yet, you'd probably like it, because here i was just ripping that sort of feel off badly because i liked it.

I enjoyed this. The size of collidable characters relative to the size of the screen in the context of teleporting by exiting out particular sides gave the main method of input a feeling similar to learning how to use a magic drawer.
The swimming animation is awesome.
