Reviews for "Mystery of Willow Mannor"
wow !
a nice plote and nice drawings
Good enough for me :)
I think its good.Yeah its little cliche but I didn't expected such ending so this means its good enough :) The music was quite good for the thrilling part I mostly liked it but without sounds the jokes were little weak and thats why I cut 1 point :) Anyway I think you guys earned the frontpage too :) Good job ;)

I like the jokes. They meant to parody. Thanks for your review
Great art but...
Given the circumstances under which you had to produce this game, I have to say it's a very high quality creation. However, there are many flaws with it.
Contrary to what many people say, I think the music is great and fits the overall atmosphere of creepiness nicely. You should have attempted to follow this through, and kept the whole game withing the horror genre. The random humorous tangents not only are out of place, but take away some script quality from what would otherwise be a good horror story.
Game play-wise, I would say that more forks should be available (mainly, more ways to lose, thus increasing the pressure of choice-making). Also, there should be an option to continue on the last fork, rather than have to start all over.
The use of only black and white art helps to emphasize the feeling of isolation. This works great when combined with the music. The one thing I'm dissatisfied with is the cliche ending, which has been seen many times over, such as in Fight Club, or The Secret Window. All in all, it's a good "game" which leaves lots of room for improvement.

I disagree with your analysis of the story. It was meant to parody, not be a legitimate horror game. The comedy is what makes this game so great, story wise.
Nice game
This game is a really nice one and the pencil style makes it look really cool. I guess anyway would be better made in photoshop with some effects and that, but it wouldn't be the same game, this one is really great.
All of you made a great job here even the game in code was simple, make up everything together probably was a big work.
The art also was really nice, what did you use? crayons or a big pencil?
And about the history itself was really great too!
I just have one thing to argue that is the music, It wasn't great, I guess something more louder would be better (with a mute button obviously)
Other than that, great game :)
Good luck in the jam
