A downloadable game

This game for the Extra Credit Game Jam 5 was inspired by a painting I dreamed of about 5 years ago depicting a demon eating an orange with his ear.   I thought he would make a great guardian of the way, and a geisha suited to be the traveler.

Control the geisha by clicking her hands or head.  You'll have to find out clues to safety by the note she carries.  Good luck getting home!

Intresting. I really liked the eerie atmosphere created by the sometimes weird handdrawn animation combined with the lack of music, or rather the music created with voices and the distorted voice speaking with you. I think the atmosphere was perfect for what seemed to have been a short stay with death.  I was kind of put off by how little was communicated in game, however on the second playthrough I had an idea of what I was doing, which just left me to read the reaction of the man on the right,wich was quite enjoyable. However, I do realise I could have had that more easily, apperently I somehow managed to miss the instructions in the description. Overall, I'd say this is a short, but enjoyable experience, that will probably make you slightly uneasy.
