This format is amazing, and totally not what I was expecting from you!

This is neat. I also like the format a lot. I don't typically enjoy point&click games, but the layout here assures me that I don't need to search for clickable objects beyond just scanning the available tiles and hypertext options.
Lately I've been thinking a lot about composing aesthetic themes by placing objects, music, lights, and words together. I found these rooms inspirational. This group of places does express a sensibility I enjoy.

btw, download version worked for me.

this is better than I could have imagined. You perfectly capture completely different aesthetics, and the different senses thing is well done.

Love it!

This was a really fun exploring game. It was really fun to see what each thing gave you. My favorite was the parrot, as I have many cats of my own and could identify. The sensory panel was the best touch.

Bug report: going into the pastel gallery and then back to the foyer opens the foyer in a new tab (but only the first time you do this).

lol i wish i knew french! it was fun trying to read it anyways.

but yeah, i was also surprised by the format! i loved the smokey robinson story so much. this was far out. so cute
