First, I'd like to congratulate you on such a stunning game. You really knocked it out of the park with the ambiance, sound design, music choice, and art style! Second, you did great at setting audience expectations only to pull the rug out from under our assumptions!

If I had a nit pick, it would be that I found the older sister extremely mean given the circumstances. Sure, it wasn't right of the character to come back and just assume the worst, but it is also extremely sad that she couldn't acknowledge how much the protagonist cared about her lost friend. That she was made to leave and was treated as if her leaving was pure abandonment, especially when so many people you meet were outwardly hostile and rude to her...it was so sad, and kind of proves her point about the town. Then again, maybe that was the point. Maybe we were supposed to see the town differently, and how different people can live entirely different experiences and that ultimately that is ok. I just wish the protagonist wasn't the only one to see that by the end. That and it is normal for childhood friends to drift away, but by the end the protagonist is treated almost like a bad guy for leaving
