A lot of the glitches have probably been covered, so I won't go into that. The other main detractors are: the lack of a pause feature, the fact that time does not stop while text is still being displayed (which locks you up, sucking away precious time unnecessarily) and the clock (which is unmercifully swift and displays as 24-hour clock instead of 12-hour).

I like the ambiance. The whole "encroaching darkness" bit may be overdone- but the old fat fits the best and this is well done. Very spooky effect. The story- such as it is- is presented well, in an interesting way. It's also quite re-playable, what with multiple (or so it would indicate, as I've only gotten one) endings. Then, too, the gameplay is solid enough to bring me back even with no other endings. This is all good, as this is NOT an action game, really.

Strategy- planning your day and managing hunger, fatigue and thirst- is key here. Not to mention that certain... things... can alter the situation quite a bit so one must think on the fly. This keeps me interested while doing otherwise mundane things. Very nice.

On the 8th day I got Ending 1 "Good Ending". Some glitches to report, sometimes when you try to walk out of an area at an angle you don't move to the next screen and instead get stuck in the edge of the current screen. I escaped a few times by rubbing against the edge until I found my way back onto the screen and another time I had to refresh my browser. Can you fish? I was never able to, although I thought I would be able to and tried interacting with water to do so since you start the game with a cooked fish. If you can't fish maybe you should just start the game with cooked rabbit so it's less misleading. Also, the fact that the ocean was the ocean and not drinkable water wasn't too clear, I was confused as to why I wasn't able to drink from it until near the end. Maybe have a message that tells you the ocean is the ocean when interacting with it. And as many others have said, allow people to skip the intro. I died like 2 times near the beginning before I figured out what I was supposed to be doing, I don't know know if trial by error is your intended design or if there isn't enough direction at the beginning.
