MUSIC

HONORABLE MENTIONS
> devon and tanay for allowing me to use your PC for game dev while catsitting <3
> phil and joey for putting on the spookiest and most intentionally curated halloween show ever
> DT for co-working on discord with me to the tune of horror fiction podcasts
> ty for showing me the Cocteau Twins #cocteautwinsluvr2003
> flan for making titanic ii, which I believe was unconscious inspiration for my nightmare, and thus this game (if you haven't played that, you are in for a real treat!!)

you really captured something about being inside a dream. I appreciated the rips, the noise, the sway, and the sky. I could hang out on the planet's surface. your nightmares have good music; invite me to your ??brain next time you have one
