Under the Murder Tree

I've seen dozens just like Eliot. The dead eyes of someone uncapable of feeling remorse for his actions. He has been in custody for four hours already and I have only five minutes to break him and make him talk...

This game was made for the O2A2 VN Jam 2023, a micro Visual Novel jam with strict asset limitations and a 1000 word limit. And it features...
1. One asset of everything, 1K words of script
2. A Timer mechanic & Animated Sprites
3. Two Endings (Win & Fail conditions)
4. A guide to get all dialogue & endings
5. A cute easter egg

Content Warning
The game is rated 18+. It contains mentions of animal abuse, torture, claustrophobia, morbid imagery and murder. Player discretion is advised!

Browser Ver. VS Downloadable Ver.
At the moment the browser version is running on easy mode because it doesn't feature that stress timer mechanic of the original. If you want to play the game as intended (especially if you plan to stream it or make a video) please play the downloadable version.
