great game overall but when you go on the phone it says 2:19 am when you look at unread messages, then it doesn't display the time when you click on 'unknown' then if you click on mailbox, it says 4:19 am, then on the home screen it says 1:25 am. its not over, on the home screen, it also says 87% then when you go to mail or unread, the icon is not the same! 0 stars>:(
I really enjoyed this little demo, one small thing I would like to let you know is that there is an overlap of text when you interact with the TV. Other than that I am impressed with the little bit of story in every interaction. The apartment has a real sense of charm reflecting Jammy's character.
Hi there! I wanted to give you a heads up, it looks like this isn't able to install through the itch app. The file drop down is empty. It works through the website, though! Looking forward to giving it a play :D
Oh wow! Thank you so so so much for playing, it really means a lot. I definitely have seen quite a few instances of overlapping text and I've been working to fix that for what will be another iteration of Homebound. I really appreciate your message and letting me know where you found issues. I hope to see another lets play when version 2 comes out :D
Really nice game! I made an account just to comment on it. I was immediately called out by it's graphical style and design, but also a feeling of it remaining simple gameplay wise, with of course much to offer. Seeing your actions unravel into different endings is also appreciated.
I love this! The way it portrays the feelings of anxiety (and maybe depression, unsure) is so well done! It's sad that the game is so short, but I can't wait for the full release!
I don't know if it is some already known bug or not, but when I first time interact with the candle, text is broken like below:
In similar way text overlaps if you press "ESC" when there is some other text already displayed.
As one additional suggestion about controls: I think it would be good idea either to add ability to move with keybord also or ability to interact with objects by clicking them. I don't say current controls are bad, that was only my thoght I had while playing the game for the first time. It would feel more consistent if you could move and interact with keyboard only or mouse only.
Also at the end game come back to the main menu before whole text is even displayed, so it's hard to read it.
Anyway overall I think the game is very well made especially as for prototype :3 Models are simple, but everything is in the same style, so it looks nice all together, character is cute and animations are smooth and well made (character even look at objects it can interact with when it's close, yey). In my opinion: great job! ^^

beautiful game!!!
Thank you so much, that really means so much to me that you played it and enjoyed the experience!
A very adorable little game. For a proof of concept, it really works out well to explore a small area for an adventure game.
Some issues with the text blocks, still. Noticed checking the TV would display multiple text windows on top of each other.
But overall, quite the fun little game!

I would be absolutely delighted to record another session! It's such a cute, and very emotion-driven little scene!

I rate it highly on my list, good golly!

Thank you so much! It's so exciting to see people play the game :)
Hi :3 The game looks pretty nice and interesting.
Below is some feedback after gameplay:

Oooh, Thank you for this! I will take a look :D
