Interesting concept and definitely one of the more unique games in GameJolt. The quality of the game is insane compared to other games I've played. The story is EXTREMELY well transmitted. You can make out the thought process and difficulties of the character during that time of it's life.
I've made a playthrough: https://youtu.be/_OiO-PPKYeM
(SPOILERS AHEAD)
Here are some of my thoughts:
You can clip out of bounds by jumping above walls (5:16 in the video), I've not showcased this in the video but that's the area I've found it in. You can jump high enough and go over the wall.
The game is a small window, it would be so much nicer if there was a full screen/borderless option.
If you go back into the level where you get the second power-up at from the climbing up level. You will have to regain the key, and you won't spawn outside of the door, which doesn't much much sense. (8:16)
Overall, amazing job! I've really enjoyed this game, such an interesting concept. You really don't know who to trust, the voice in your head with the score, or the dog. Not to mention, the hard jumps and obstacles indicate the difficult effort put by the character into being "normal" like the voice in the head is telling it to be. I'm not sure if it's just me but the music is nostalgic, which makes me believe this could've been some sort of childhood trauma. Maybe I'm just thinking too deeply into it. I hope this game manages to get more traction like it deserves.
I have to know if there's a way to break this lol
I rage at mirror boss
I enjoyed the game. Made a list of a few issues I had with it, but none of them are game ruining, most are nitpicks at best. Also feel free to rebut anything I say or explain why something is the way it is because understanding someone's mindset when creating something can be interesting.
You can easily no clip out of bounds by jumping over walls
During the final cutscene you can just walk left without grabbing the cookie and end the game
The respawn point in the room that is after the tower climb and before the boss has a weird spawn point. I spawned inside of the door and instantly warped to the past room.
Final boss if you kill it it still has a hitbox and can kill you. You just respawn and the cutscene still plays though.
Not a glitch but I'd recommend showing the controls on the menu. I was trying to play with a keyboard and had no idea how to interact with the menus. Game controller is the intended play method though and that was easier because I just guessed I had to hit A.
Representing the power ups with hearts made me think I had HP. Honestly though other games have done similar like Castelvania

"feast" is a short platformer that goes over the struggles with dealing with an eating disorder.
For the past couple of years, I myself had dealt with an eating disorder. I was overweight, and heavy bullying and bad self-worth really got to me. I reached an extremely unhealthy body weight and got a lot of serious health problems from doing so. I made this game not only to explain my personal struggles with dealing with an eating disorder but also to create a fun platformer out of it to spread awareness.
If you yourself are struggling with an eating disorder, please find help and support as soon as you can. :)
